Good for them! I'm not a smoker, but I don't support the smoking bans. Let the businesses decide.

Rep. Michael Merrifield, D-Colorado Springs, a supporter of the ban, called the protest “pretty much useless.”

“Civil disobedience has been used for much greater causes,” he said Wednesday. Business owners who have lost business because of the smoking ban “should look at ways to appeal to nonsmokers.”
So this POS just ADMITTED the bans hurt businesses.

Same here. Bingo Doyle is pulling the same crap here in WI.

Either ban tobacco outright or STFU
