"Even if the above is true, then it is the nasty ol' smokers to blame for taking their business away from these establishments. Boo on the smokers for taking food from the childrens' mouths."

Yep, the same lack of logic you use to support your pro WOD stance. The next step in your logic will be government legislation forcing the smokers to spend a certain amount of money in bars and restaurants. Of course, you too believe in personal freedom and liberty, as long as it is convenient for you.

The state, not the smokers, took the business away. The smokers are just living by the rules the state has set up.

No. The smokers left; probably because without smoking they realized just how bad the food was at these places ....
