I also support the smoking bans and have people that live in areas where they do not serve alcohol in "gentlemen's clubs" along with no smoking.

The smoking ban does not only benefit other patrons, it benefits the employees of those establishments and benefits smokers too. I used to smoke, most of my family used to smoke, a lot of my friends used to smoke. They never gave themselves a good enough reason to quit until it became inconvenient for them to smoke.

I just recently moved from SE Wisconsin (was there for several years) and I have quite a few friends in the Chicago area, my brother is from Washington, I have family all over the country. 23 People I know have quit smoking directly from smoking bans.

They couldn't be happier and neither could I.

But I don't support this fat bias at all....
