The City Council of Washington, DC has voted to ban smoking in bars and restaurants.

I have always been a nonsmoker and disliked the habit intensely. But today smoking in "public places" is a battleground of freedom.

Bars and restaurants are not public places. They are privately-owned. It should be entirely up to the owner whether or not smoking is permitted. Don't like it? Don't patronize that place. Don't like it? Work somewhere else.

Smoking bans extinguish freedom.
