You keep trying to bring it around to "because people here can't smoke in certain places" when in reality it is about the right of the property owner to decide to cater to people like you or people like me. They have the right to do either and we have the right to reward that choice.

In California, they no longer have that right, thereby eliminating our ability to chose. Actually, just eliminating the choice for people like me. You seem to be OK with this. How would you feel if the government passed legislation that eliminated your choice and catered to people like me by forcing all property owners to accomodate smokers?

When we lose respect for private property, which is the case with your state, then we no longer have private property. How will you feel when the tobacco infringement is completed and they move on to food items? What would you do if certain foods were banned at restaurants? How about custody cases being decided based on government approved diet plans? At what point does it stop?
