    If you knew how bad it was in the 70s.... Everything was based around smoking. They gave you free ones flying... Everyone smoked. When At Sears to buy a new washer the sales guy was smoking during the pitch and so were you. Mom chained smoked in the car with the windows up. You smoked while grocery shopping. Insane.

    You're free to walk away, anyone smoking where you can't walk away is totally at fault though.

    I get you're upset but 100% of people would choose a breath of second hand smoke over getting drugged. Come on now

    And when we are at it, having to breath in toxic fumes from gas/fuel powered engines should be classified the same.

    Is there a certain gene that causes people to think vapes are nasty in the same way some people say coriander tastes like soap.

    Like nobody enjoys getting a face full of what you know just came out of somebody, but I'm seeing a lot more vocal hatred about vapes than I ever saw about cigarettes, and cigarettes are fucking awful, at least vape clouds are sweet.

    For me vapes and cigarettes are exactly the same in grossness, but I dislike vapes more because vapers often ignore laws and regulations against smoking in public or passive smoking, way more often then cigarette smokers do. And they are way more aggressive when asked to obey the laws.

    Smoking is bad and 2nd hand smoke is bad, there's a whole lot of science about it. A lot of country/government already set up no-smoking zone(as in the whole area), whether you're indoor or outdoor, and some country already have a law that ban indoor smoking everywhere. ICE car caused the same issue, while the regulation of exhaust emission is there it still is an issue that not a lot of country are willing to look at.

    Not sure why this post getting downvoted tbh.

    Non-smokers should just fart more to level the playing field.

    the worst part is that smokers' sense of smell is fucked so they dont even realize how bad it is for everyone around them

    This is extreme, but I will admit l am a fan of the UK's plan to continually raise the age to purchase them until there's an entire generation that will never be able to purchase them legally.

    I also like Australia's increasing tax on cigarettes which directly funds the national health service. Make it so it'll get so expensive that you might as well quit sooner than later because you can't afford to keep smoking, or for those who choose to keep smoking they can help pay for the cost of their habit up front

    Only if the same applies to perfume, cologne, aftershave, body spray, and body odor, and farts, and garlic burps, and fish in the microwave, fireworks, popcorn is ok, unless you burn it, then it's at least 6 months in jail. Also, building managers are going to have to be held responsible for old ventilation systems and mustiness.

    The real issue is the negative health effects from air pollution, regardless of it's caused by smoking or not. I don't think the point was "ban smoking cause it smells bad" but rather "ban smoking because of the significant cancer risk, including in secondhand smokers."

    Just where do you expect people to smoke? Even if you don't like it, people still have a right to do it and that should be respected. They've already been forced outdoors when in public, what more do you expect?

    Lmfao. Nice bait.
