It depends on who is doing the banning. Typically smoking bans are enforced by the government. Alowing CHL carry is up to the individual business owner. I don't have a problem with an individual business owner declaring his business non-smoking. I also don't have a problem with a business owner saying no weapons. I don't have to do business with either. It's about freedom to associate, which includes the freedom to NOT associate.

On many a thread cinFLA has said that he/she agrees that the govt can, and should, ban smoking in private businesses and has his/her approval while doing it. All becuase they don't like the smell of burning tobacco.

Just like the Boy Scouts are free to not associate with homosexuals. Tell that to the United Way and some other socialist state legislators.
