I like you smitty. I hope you make a billion dollars selling beers at 300% margin. But I don't give a rip about bar owners. I don't give a rip about R.J. Reynolds either. If a law is passed that hurts the profitability of cancer sticks, I just can't complain. I'm a former tobacco user (spitter, not a sucker) and I don't like to smell like an ashtray. I'm watching my wife's grandmother die a painful death from second hand smoke, so I don't care about scientific studies or what the CDC says about 2nd-hand-smoke. My experience tells me it can kill you.
I have plenty of friends who smoke. Great. I don't have a problem with their choice. I don't care about a lot of stuff. But don't ask me to feel sorry for bar owners when smoking is pushed outside. People will still come. They'll just go outside to smoke.
