The bars in town are places to smoke, drink and enjoy a good old fashioned bar fight. The bouncers are skilled at hurting people.

That's a problem with bar management. In a decent place the "bouncers" (a word we don't usually use at my place) are there to prevent problems not to cause them. As Patrick Swayze said in Roadhouse, "people who want to have a good time won't come to a slaughterhouse".

What's pretty much a given though is that people who go to bars either smoke themselves or aren't really bothered by it. This is why virtually no bars go "smoke free" unless forced to by Big Brother Government. They understand their business and their clientele far better than bureaucrats or do-gooders who would never condescend to visiting such a place to begin with.

Roadhouse was one of my favorite movies. The bouncers at the local bars make the Roadhouse bouncers look like a bunch of pantywaist wannabes. The city has been quietly trying to figure out a way to pull the liquor licenses from a few of those establishments. They easily consume 1/3 of the law enforcement labor hours on the streets. The number of battery claims and civil lawsuits alone will drag those places out of business. It just takes time to document the behavior in such an overwhelming fashion that success is ensured.
