If Spain can do it...

The law will permit something akin to smoking lounges. It is not a complete ban.

I am not in favor of any kind of a smoking ban and I am a non-smoker. You got places where you go where the majority of the people are smoking, and are regulars, and if people don’t like it they can go to a non-smoking place.

This is what happens when you elect Socialists. They try to make life miserable for homosexual smokers who don't want to get married.

We beat the smoking ban in St.Louis by challenging the public health argument. In the meantime, two big studies have appeared that further question the need for a smoking ban in St. Louis. Are aesthetic reasons sufficient to curtail use of a legal product on private property? Sadly smoking bans are really about yuppie dry cleaning bills rather than public health.
