that's true.. you can choose not to go into smoke filled rooms.
in the other case they are taking away your freedom.


What about the freedom of smokers to go into smoke filled rooms?


Idiot!
No one has stopped smokers going and killing themselves in smoke filled
rooms.
You can go and do it if you want.

What is banned is employers allowing workers to do so.
The same as they aren't allowed to go into paint shops, asbestos cleanup,
etc.
This is because the overwhelming evidence is that smoke filled rooms are
dangerous to staff and you are not allowed to send employees into danger.


Or is 'freedom' a one way street?


It would appear to be, smokers certainly don't allow others to enjoy smoke
free air if it means delaying their fix.
