lol theres no proven link with 2nd hand smoke to cancer if my memories correct ight be wrong as i read it on msn.com,by hippies i ment the goverment again one rule for them another for us, such as there allowing smoking in the houses of parliment,and they have weird explanations for indoors i believe its 3 walls and a roof, so in theory u can get fined for smoking in a bus shelter give me a break what happened to freedom insted of this hypocritical big brother state we live in which is only serving to hinder us. They put massive taxes on ciggys when alcohol related deaths are more abundate and cost the nhs twice as much. On a friday night i very much doubt ud find a smoker in nhs cos hes had one to many and gone and kicked someones head in,I work in an off license and never has a smoker held a knife up to me or bricked the shop windows,if anything drinking shud have higher taxes and be banned.I am a non drinker by choice however i am a smoker and i 100% dont agree with the new ban, in some ways i can see benifits but it really doesnt encourge people to quit in my view only to be more rebillious towards.

btw this is not ment to offend people it is my view as yours is yours

There are clear and strong links between smoking and health issues. You can manipulate the statistics all you want, but smoking will still kill you.

Its a disgusting habit. If you can quit it, do so. If you havent started yet, dont. If you cant live without it, please let us know when the funeral is.

That said, my mum is a very severe yet healthy smoker of 64 and my mum-in-law died of lung cancer before hitting 50. Both Mario and I have respiratory issues so we dont smoke anyway. But our main point is: your liberty to pollute your lungs touches our liberty to be able to breathe freely whenever you light one up. We dont begrudge you the fun of smoking, but you should be aware of the fact that your fun means ill health for others. In my personal case it means irritated airways and stinging in the eyes.
Would you do that to me ?

In Australia, drinking is the number one drug for causing deaths in the under 35 year old age bracket. Smoking is the most deadly drug in the over 35s. Ban them both I say.
