Bars, mostly, are suffering from this. If you OWN a business and a building, it (should be) up to YOU if you want to allow smoking. If there were non-smoking bars, then there will be smoking bars.
Then maybe all this  between the non and pro can STOP. |
Yupp! I am with you on this. We need nonsmoker and smoker area BOTH. When I went to Japan, they have very good smoking restricted. For example, the airport in USA, there is no airport that have a room for smokers to go in and smoke, but Japan do! Almost everywhere in Japan, they have seperate rooms that allow smoking and a room for nonsmokers who don't want to be in secondhand. I like this law better than ours because our law on the smoking seems so inconvience for people, even nonsmokers too.
