second hand smoke i bullshit and another way to control smokers cant smoke atleast 20 feet from any open doors at resteraunts etc certain buildings mississippi you cant even smoke in a bar some states you cant smoke in towns its retarded now they have stupid people failing drugs tests and blaming it on second hand smoking for pot..... morons

smoking doesnt hurt anyone....

Except for people allergic to cigarette smoke, people who have asthma, people that casually enjoy breathing, and people that don't like the smell of cigarettes forever ingraining itself into articles of clothing.

gtfo on refer to the picture in my last post.

Picture in your last post fails. Your whole argument is "I enjoy smoking & don't give a fuck how much it inconveniences others".

..cause they have to breathe your smoke....?

Smoking kills

It's not enough to give you cancer. Give me a fucking break kid. We're talking about as you walk into a building past a cloud of smoke for a split second. It's even outside where the wind disperses it almost instantly.



It's all the non smokers that are doing the crying. Wahhh waaahhhh make it illegal wahahaaahhh



Basically. If it's an inconvenience to you then you have every right to go somewhere else. There is no reason that a business owner shouldn't be allowed to let people smoke on property that he owns. None whatsoever. How about all you non-smokers either stop crying about smoke or go somewhere that doesn't allow smoking. It seems easy enough, but I guess there are a lot of faggots out there that just like to complain instead of going somewhere else.

It's illegal to smoke in any public place in the entire state of New York. I'm walkin' on sunshine, and don't it feel good!

You're wrong and here's why.

In the U.S. our rights end where the rights of others begins. In other words, your right to swing your fist ends before my face, and vice versa. As you smoke you are breaching the personal space of somebody else.

Second hand smoke has been proven to he harmful by overwhelming amounts of evidence. You can't argue this fact, I just posted a studies where the conclusively found a link between cancer caused by second hand smoke to non-smokers. The higher the exposure the higher the risk. But the risk is still present even in infrequent exposures. Accumulate exposures over time from doorways, sidewalks, establishments that allow smoking, etc and it could pose a risk. To prove your point, would you willingly expose yourself if only briefly to environments containing asbestos several times a day over your lifetime? Would you accept that exposure for no apparent reason?
