Non-smokers do not have to expose themselves to passive smoking.
So what's the problem?
Why the need for the ban?

Should we ban base jumping? It can lead to death, and although I can protect myself by not partaking in it, I may slip up and paticipate and risk my life!
Or how about underwear? People die in underwear incidents every year, I can protect myself by choosing to go commando, but what if my gf leaves her knickers on the floor and I trip on them and fall down the stairs to my death?
