As I read through the previous thread, I was struck by an ironic thought. Most of those supporting the ban say that smokers should be forced to take their "habit" outside since it is offensive to the majority of the patrons. Yet most of these same people were OUTRAGED a few months ago when a mall in NY tried to force two men to remove T-shirts that were considered "offensive" by the majority of it's patrons or vacate the premises.
In one case, the rights of the individual supercedes the rights of the majority, in the other case it is the exact opposite.

That is because most people have a preference and argue TOWARD their preference rather than based on logic.
