Nah, not a Nazi. Society has a right to restrict nuisance behavior We have every legal right to listen to (shudder) Slim Witman at 3 a.m... We have every legal right to watch gory, mad slasher films while eating Thanksgiving dinner...
-but I don't have the right to inflict those activities upon the senses of my neighbors. Our culture is increasingly looking at smoking as a nuisance behavior.
