   Comments: The smoking ban has just about ruined the live music business. Organizations lobbying for these bans publicly deny the obvious economic damages that occur to these type of businesses after bans are forced on the owners of these private businesses. They have no concern for the loss of income musicians and club owners have suffered. Professional musicians have become hobbyists and bars are closing left and right....yet we continually hear nothing but denial of these things happening from the smokefree lobbying organizations.

   Comments: Smoking or no smoking should be left up to the private property business owner. Their rights are being violated. Only the owner has the right to decide if smoking is or is not permitted on their property.

    Comments: I live in Colorado, but I wanted to sign this petition to express my dissatisfaction with the implementation of the smoking ban. Tobacco is legal to use, therefore, people have an absolute right to use it. But, SEPARATE nonsmoking AND smoking establishments are the solution. Either leave the owners to their own decision, or provide and option of smoking licenses which would also help in tracking the amount of smoking places, and mandate proper ventialtion as well. Just my opinion as to HOW this issue should be TRULY resolved. Thank you.

    Comments: I don't care about "smokers rights" or "Non-smokers rights." I care about property owners rights. Laws banning smoking take those rights away. Compounding this outrage is the use of junk science, big government and corporate greed to destroy the foundation our country was born upon;private property rights.
