No, black is the color of your thoughts, trying to take freedoms and rights away little by little and give all power to the state or federal govt.

Lest you forget, the US constitution assigns the powers and rights, not me. I am just using my right to voice my opinion that I have the right to a smoke free environment which trumps your right to blow smoke in my face.

You are using your voice to advocate the demonization of smokers, in general.
I will stand up for your right to punch anyone that actually blows smoke in your face. NOT someone that is smoking in an establishment that allows smoking that you happen to want to go into.
Florida did it correctly when they amended their constitution to DISALLOW smoking in a private business establishment. I don't agree with it but IMO that is what it takes. Short of an amendment in each states constitution, or an amendment in the US constitution, there should be no law/regulation/ordinance that restricts a business owner from allowing the smoking of tobacco in their establishment, IMO.

Of course Florida also put in an amendment to disallow the tethering of a pregnant pig. Which goes to show you why they call it Floriduh.

You whiney little snivelling baby.

Your alleged right to a "smoke free environment" does not trump the right of a business owner who does not have to admit you to his premises.

You seem to forget the fact that you must abide by certain rules even to enter the establishment. A common sign in places is "We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone"

Show up in my part of Delaware with your nasty attitude - you will be asked to leave imediately and you will have no recourse.

You may have the right in Florida because of the panty waists like you changing the constitution - but you have NO RIGHT to walk into any private establishment without the owners permission in Delaware.

You truly need to get over your tyrannical dictatorial self - and do it quickly, please.
