zam70l,
No it's not an empty argument, it's just that you're missing the point I've been making which is:
Everyone has the right to smoke tobacco and kill themselves, so what. If someone wants to wrap their lips around an exhaust pipe all day it's not my place to tell them not to. However I have the right to breath tobacco-free air and prolong my life. Who's right?...no one & everyone. The answer is where the line is drawn to separate the two. It's up to our legislators and courts to determine the extent of smokers rights when it comes to where they can light up. Simple as that. Our courts are there to interpret constitutional rights and at which point your right to do XXX violates another person's right to do XXX. God bless the USA.
