Intro: Editor: This is in regard to 'Yes' voters spoiled smoking fun.
First off, older people are not the only people that voted 'Yes.' I am 32-years-old and believe it or not, a smoker myself. However, I do not smoke all the time. And I voted yes to this ban. I frequent the bars, but not always enjoying the filthy haze that comes with it. Smoking does not make you "cooler" and is not fun or healthy for you. So if there's anyone that's not going to be around very long, it's all the smokers that are "slowly killing themselves." And I will be around longer to enjoy my new smoke-free environments. If you think about it, you still have options: QUIT smoking (you'll save a lot of money and your life). You also don't have to frequent the bars that we were told we don't go to anyway (so not true).
