There was a bar here in Rochester called "Johnny's Smoke Free Irish Pub".

Now it's called "Johnny's Irish Pub".

The guy had a slamming business before the smoking ban; every night of the week was packed to the gills with 28-65 year olds of all kinds who wanted to hang out at what was pretty much the only non-smoking bar in town.

Well, it's good he had loyal customers, because NYS ruined his monopoly.

What a bunch of idiots. I am pretty sure we are seeing the last days of the Republic.

In a town the size of Rochester, the bolded part speaks volumes.
