You're good. I was waiting for that.

Such as airports, for example?

You have just given reason why there should not be any public property. (Excerpting such things as military bases, armies, police forces, etc)

If there is public property you get the situation you described. Take the smoking situation.

Assume that 2nd hand smoke is harmful

Also recall my assertion that rights are individual and not group in nature.

The existence of public property makes rights impossible. Two conflicting courses of action can only be settled by vote-or mob rule. How does do "voters" enforce their will?

Miami

Cuba and all socialist states are compelled to use guns whenever there is a dispute because all property is public.
And it can be observed from history that socialism is harmful to human life.
