The article is based on opinion on what is right. The author gives you both sides of the topic, should smokers be able to smoke in their homes. The whole article is based on opinion and I would have to say that it is up to the person who lives in the home. Government can't tell someone they can't smoke in their own home because of the negative effects. People should be able to do what they want in the privacy of their own homes unless it takes other peoples rights away.
