Do you support the use of government power to force private property owners to conform to "no smoking" laws?

If a state legislature passes a law to restrict property rights then yes I support it. If the federal gov't does it then no.

HEY! we have a response!

Your postition is that property rights only exist at the pleasure of the state. A typical "conservative" position.

Okay, imagine this:

I am a vegetarian. I think that meat stinks. Yes, it smells, particularly when being cooked, and I find it personally (and perhaps even morally) offensive. I do not believe that I should have to smell dead animal flesh while I am eating in a restaurant. In fact, I find the entire practice barbaric. I also do not believe that you have the right to cook meat in your home insofar as the smell (of death) wafts into my apartment. I should not have to live amongst the smell of a simmering carcass. It causes me undo emotional distress, and sometimes even makes me sick.

Furthermore, eating lots of meat is not good for your health, and could lead to heart disease. And I think you should pay a tax for the dead animals that you eat.

You get the idea. What say you?
