Well, Metro has always kinda skirted the legality of the smoking ordinances anyhow.
My thinking is as follows. Smoking is still legal. Yes it is bad. But it's still legal, just as drinking, eating fast food, and driving cars is still legal. All of those things produce serious public health concerns.
I don't like the idea of picking on just one group of people in the name of public health concerns.
