I have been reading the posts here, and until Freedom Lady posted, elected to stay away. Jazz, I agree that your position on private property has merit but all along I waited for the person to post about outdoor smokers infringing upon their "rights". Let's face it, most new homes today are built within developments lacking any "sight lines" separating each parcel of "private property". Thus, what the anti smoking zealots really desire is governmental intrusion/regulation - private property be damned!
