they're not. they are at the mercy of the owner of the business. non-smokers can go to many non-smoking bars to avoid the issue

i believe i should be able to go into any bar i want and not worry about people who are drunk

i presume you believe in government bans on gay marriage, possessing weed, having an open container of alcohol outside, etc?
Im not political at all. But i never understood how one viewpoint can be all encompassing.
Because 2nd hand smoke affects people's health, means i should be against gay marriage and open containers? Huh? Seriously, this is what is wrong with politics in America

When the govt. forced these people into smoke filled bars under penalty of law.

gay marriage is banned due to certain people deciding their morality should be enforced as a law
open containers being illegal is the same thing
so is this law about banning property owners from deciding what to do with their property
it's using government as a cheat code to win the war of ideas in a market. it's all the same shite

you got a study that shows 2nd hand smoke effects from sitting in a bar?

I just wish smoking wasn't allowed in the BR Bulldog. How long until that happens?

No one forces you to be around second hand smoke though. You could easily walk away if it bothers you. The smoker has the same right to be someplace as you do.
This ban isn't about the smokers though. It's about government telling a private owner what they can or cannot do.

Why would you want to go to a bar that is actively trying to kill you?
