While I find it quite pleasant to be able to go to the bar and not have to deal with smoke and the smell it leave behind on my clothes, the decision to be smoke free or not shoud be left to the owner. I've only found one place where I live that allows smoking - legal loophole of some kind - and I still go in. My smoking friends love it.

There should be room for all legal activities in the world.

"My smoking friends love it."

Personally, I have found respect a much better standard than legislation regarding smoking. Sure, there are people who have none, but you deal with those %^&#$%^& no matter what. When I go out to eat with friends who smoke, I generally let them decide whether to sit in smoking sections or not. Likewise, I have also found that most of my friends who smoke are sensitive to those who don't and will often step outside even when they are not "required" to do so. I don't want smoking in my car or in my house and that is my perogative, but when I am in someone else's place, whether it is their home or a business, I recognize their right to set their own standards and my part is to deal with it or go somewhere else.
