Taking that point of tolerance back to the concept of a public smoking ban, I feel it is a private establishment's right to decide if they will or will not allow smoking, and under what circumstances they will partition smoking and non-smoking areas, if they decide to do so. We should tolerate smokers, they as a group are no different from non smokers. I am a non smoker, so I can say my position is at least somewhat objective. In an open area, like outdoors, smoking should be perfectly legal. There's more toxic stuff in the air before and after the smoker lights up anyways...
