Do you drink. Maybe they should put those warnings on your alcohol with pictures of diseased livers.

But that's different! Drinking is actually COOL!

What is your definition of a "right"?

[QUOTE="SeanyBoy21"]

[QUOTE="Jandurin"] still, you get my point. You DO have the right to cause long term harm.Jandurin

What is your definition of a "right"?

If you don't know, than why are you arguing about what rights we have?

right=a moral, ethical, or legal principle considered as an underlying cause of truth, justice, morality, or ethics.

Legally we have the right to do long term harm to others for personal pleasure and that is the subject of this topic. TC (and myslef) believes that that should be changed because Morally and Ethically, we don't believe that we have the right to do that.

Oh, how I wish.

Wow really have some pompus people in hear.

Persoanlly i think smoking should be banned indoors in all public areas oh somthing like the UK has. Then Smokers go outside and thesmoke only effects them and other smokers in a small radius at a designated smoking area.

Oh look everyone is happy and smokers can still enjoy smoking.

Well the sooner some of the child minded i am right you are wrong posters here realize the best way to deal with many situations is to become flexible when dealing with the opposition, the better for my sanity and temper!

Ahh you should learn how to compromise thats the word i was looking for. Now unless you non smoking guys wanna come up with a reason why smoking outside should be banned? Lets just hope America adopts the UKs stance on smoking because its a winner for all involved.

I'm waiting for someone to claim that merely seeing smokers causes cancer.

Tobacco, alchohol and firearms need to just be left alone. I thought we learned something from the prohibition but I guess history does like to repeat itself.

I think they should all wear bubble helmets so that only they breath in the smoke and none goes else where.

[QUOTE="Jandurin"] I don't bother with legality. I bother with reality. In reality, it doesn't do much damage to others unless you live with them, so get over yourself. If you want to make a difference, get cars abolished. /hah Jandurin

agree 100%

Too many people make a ruckus simply because they feel entitled to it. I call that the College Student Living Off Campus For The First Time Syndrome. Something irks you, and its a legitimate complaint on the technical level, yet your demands to fix it are just so out of proportion to the actual problem that you come off looking like a tool.

Live in reality, be a good person, and compromise. Things are pretty good now; you cant smoke inside, you can post a sign saying "no smoking" just about anywhere, and lets be frank...smoking is generally so frowned down upon that smokers are careful with where they light up as to bother the least amount of people. I know I am and everyone I smoke with is.

I just saw this show and on it they said that if somebody smokes somewhere and then they leave, most of the harmful chemicals are still there and can still harm people who are there even days after. So if you go into a hotel room where somebody smoked, you breath in all of those chemicals and if your parents smoke, you breath them in all the time cause you can get the chemicals off their clothes, or if they smoke in the house, you basically breath them in all the time. These aren't joke chemicals either, they're the ones that really screw you up. Why are ciggarettes not illegal, yet others things that shouldn't be are?

teddyrob

They should be put in jail. You know if you had those samechemicals in bottles at your home. The police would put you in jail.

I'm in favour of a total ban everywhere including your own homes. Make it illegal. It's the only way to clean healthy lungs for everyone.

Well then lets ban:

Cars, for creating smog. Its (the other) only way to clean your lungs
Fast food, for clogging arteries. Its the only way to clean your arteries
TVs, for damaging your eyesight. Its the only way to preserve your vision
...lets see what else

I would rather live in a fun, free society for 90 years than a dull, bland, sissy society for 95

It is illegal in many public places.

Speaking as a non-smoker, no thank you. Prohibitions do not work.

I do agree with you somewhat, but I don't want it illegal because I am a smoker myself. But this ^^^ ... get's me :?

breathing should be illegal, you are polluting our hair :xDante2710

Smoking should be limited to islands about 25 miles off the coast and the penalty for smoking on the mainland is death. I hate breathing other people's smoke, it's disgusting.

There's another new thread with a guy in Turkey shooting the manager of a restaurant and killing some other guy 'cause they asked him to put out his cigarette after they banned it in bars and restaurants...So, you see ? ... Banning smiking is really bad ! ;)

People should be allowed to smoke i think its stupid that you would want to make that illegal.
