So, your argument is that, because the law has been changed to ban smoking in workplaces, bars, restuarants, etc. we should accept it and "get over it"?

You do leap to conclusions. My argument is that the "state has the right to ban smoking. If you disagree then it is your right to work to repeal those laws or move to a more friendly jurisdiction.

cinFLA,

Can you explain to me exactly why smokers should not be allowed to enjoy their smokes in some restuarants and bars?

Afterall, we make up about 25% of the population.

Given a choice, owners of eating and drinking establishments would cater for us. Why shouldn't they be allowed to do so, and why shouldn't we be catered for?

You have plenty of non-smoking places to go. Why is it so abhorrent to you that we might have a few places to go?
