Nope. Can't agree. I don't see how allowing a public health threat to exist anywhere the public may go, whether they choose to go there or not, can be allowed by law.
It's already been demonstrated that too many people are too stupid to consider their own smoking dangerous enough to quit or never start. It's a little too much, imo, to expect people casually out for a drink or bite to eat to adequately consider the health risks of the establishment they patronize.
"Private" businesses are not private. People go there, people work there. It's really unrealistically naive to say customers and employees should take into account the dangers of second-hand smoke when doing something either as serious as deciding where to make the money they need to survive, or as casual as deciding where to have breakfast.
Pulease.
And I don't buy the bullsh!t about the demise of French Culture either. What a crock.
