Smoker’s have rights because corporations need profit. If smokers weren’t pumping in money, the Fair would happily ban smoking and would take all the credit for political correctness. It will never happen as long as smokers pay up. Deal with it. That being said, smoking should not be allowed in public places in the open air, period. Remember, addicts will do almost anything to have a cig. Do it like some of the airports do and stuff them like cattle into a small completely enclosed glass cube where they can be viewed. The smoke fills up their enclosure where they can ingest even more nicotine until it gets gets sucked out by fans. No smoke ever on the concourse or smelled by children. Your choices create your circumstances and others should not suffer because of it. If you really want to punish the corporations for this reckless behavior, don’t contribute to their coffers. Don’t attend their fairs or events.
