We've had a smoking ban here for about a year...I've gotten used to it, and I've cut back on my smoking when at the bars.
Even as a smoker, I'm ok with the idea, but I think it should be left up to the businesses. All our pool halls went bankrupt, and almost all of the bars have seen reduced business.

It should have given a 2 year warning, people who were addicted legally at 16 have been forced to quit and to me that seems unreasonable. |

I like the ban
Personally, I'm happy with the ban. I don't give a damn about whether smoking is unhealthy or not, or how much second-hand smoke may or may not affect a non-smoker's health-- I know only one thing (being a non-smoker): Its VERY unpleasant, like needles going into my eyes.
Maybe because I don't smoke my olfactory glands work better, but I can smell the smoke on people's clothes and it doesn't just stink-- it has a physical effect on my eyes and nasal passages. When I visit my parents, who smoke, that smell is in my clothes & my eyes burn long after I have gone. Stink I can deal with, but not the physical pain from being around people who could care less and light up anyway. For that reason alone, I welcome the ban. Smokers should keep that unpleasantness to themselves. ~ josh
