Or here's a thought:
Let the damned business owners make their own choice whether they want to allow smoking or not. While you continue to make the choice whether to patronize each business on a case-by-case basis.
You can choose not to patronize a business that allows their patrons to smoke. And Bob Dole can choose to patronize the ones that allow it.
Oh wait...choice is a BAD thing. Well, as long as it's not the majority's choice, anyway.
