I have read the constitution. I got A's in all my constitutional law classes. Nothing I side is disputed by your citation.

I have NOT read all the States Constitutions by I would suspect in many a majority in large number of states (3/4ths?) could call for a convention. MY point (please don't go Socratic on me) is that even the Constitution of the United States is not set in stone. AND if a law violates it it can be challenged. That said laws that limit smoking are generally constitutional. You can only challenge that in one venue - the courts. On FR you can say what you want.

You only have the right to smoke because your fellow citizens say so.
