I didn't mean it cavalierly but I did mean it. I am also annoyed by smoke, although not as much as some and apparently not as much as you. I would prefer people go outside to smoke, and even that bars or clubs or whatever usually forbid smoking (or allow it in a small walled off area that gets vented to the outside), but I don't think its right for the state to force them to do so any more then it would be right for the state to force me not to smoke (if I did want to smoke which I don't) because my tenant has a problem tolerating smoke. I know the law makes a strong distinction between a private home and a privately owned facility that is generally open to the public but as far as I am concerned they are both private property. Also I believe some of these laws effect private clubs as well.
