[Qq=Behold the Void]As distasteful as I find smoking, and as much as I hate smoking and the scent of smokers, they do have the right to smoke in a public place, as it is open to everyone and they have the right to smoke there. Private places can and do ban smoking in some or all areas, I just wish there were more places that did do this.[/Qq]
People also have an unalienable right to breathe. If I wish to breath clean air, then I should have that right above a person who wishes to breathe air full of poison. One could even argue that smoking in a public place is terrorism. You're releasing a poison in a public place which kills people. Whether or not it's intentional is another story.
