Just because the issue is settled legally doesn't change the fact that non-smokers are impacted by smokers. That's why I called smokers insensitive rather than lawbreakers.

The law isn't the only tool we have to control unwanted behavior...social mores can actually be one of the best tools we have since they're less rigid and can change over time.
