When duly elected local officials pass laws its not SOME people, but they speak for the majority of the people. As I assume you know, the majority cant take away your basic Constitutional rights, but “right to have a restaurant with smoking” isnt up there. If you have a problem, then get the votes. Otherwise get an AK, storm the Capitol like those braindeads in Michigan, and cry about not being as free as bluebird.
Americans have mastered the art of doing 99% of what they want, yet crying and whining over the unfair oppression related to the 1% they cant. “Its socialism!” “Its communism!” Of course all the while calling other people “snowflakes” when they choose a different 1% to complain about.
