Sensible thinking, thatBut I think it might be better phrased as 'Smokers don't have a right to smoke anywhere they want to'
Much like I think I should have a right to wander naked anywhere I want to, but apparently that's just not on!

Or"smokers are prohibited from exercising their freedom to smoke in location X because of reason Y".
I think if you look at a lot of the reasons given, they don't really hold up to scientific scrutiny or 'common sense'. A special smoking conservatory was shut down at my workplace because you can't smoke indoors anymore. Of course only people smoking actually went in there...
As for being naked, I think the Naked Protester guy is bang on the money. That the human body per se is illegal is fucking stupid. Clearly flashing kids etc. is something to be legislated against, being naked and just hanging out shouldn't be.
But I'm just an old skool Liberal. No-one listens to the like of me any more.
