re: New Orleans City Council Passes Smoking Ban

People who support this ban, don't you see this is not about smoking. This is just another form of control and taxation. Since New Orleans lost the toll tax they are trying hard to make up for that loss in revenue.

bars are private property, so no, you can't smoke inside of that private property

but being restricted to one area of that private property isn't exactly "smoking freely" on said private property

This is a complete hypothetical. Let's say one day the government decides you aren't allowed to use your microwave inside your house anymore, because the radiation is harmful to people's health. But you can take the microwave outside and use it, that's still ok.
You own the house and there is nothing illegal about using a microwave, you just can't do it inside your house.
Would you support that?

you don't have to get hypothetical
this government already bans silly things like using marijuana or gay people getting married. no need for hypotheticals

There is no ban on smoking on private property. If you think there is, you're either intellectually dishonest or you just don't get it.
I'm watching you not get it.
