I do not smoke, but I am opposed to this ban. It would punish business owners as well as those people who are doing nothing illegal. I have created a website to bring attention to this issue, but I don't want to be accused of spamming. Is it okay to list the website? I'm not selling anything, this is a political issue.

Would any home with children fall under the "child care" provision, basically making it ILLEGAL for parents to smoke in their own home?

Yes, all Florida Freepers need to get out and vote and defeat this fascist piece of crap amendment. I don't smoke myself either, but understand I can protest with my business if I don't like permitted smoking.

The smoking Nazis wont give up. I urge severe civil disobedience on the part of patrons and owners if this passes.

Sadly, this will probably pass --especially if Florida's constitution can be amended with 50%+1 of the vote. Only around 20% of the adult population smokes. Most of the remaining 80% are either indifferent to or hostile to smokers' rights.

You know what they say about democracy:

"Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what's for dinner."

This is the plight of smokers in a nutshell.
