Well think of it this way people drink when they know it can kill them, they drive fast when they know it can kill them, they sky dive when they know it can kill them, they mountain climb when they know it can kill them, they ride bulls that can kill them, they get on a plane knowing it can kill them, they do drugs that they know can kill them, they join the military when they know it can kill them, they have plastic surgery when they know it can kill them, heck stepping out of your house can kill you. Are we all suppose to live in constant fear of all this and more that can kill us? Or better yet lets take it all away from everyone so we can think we have saved the world. none of those things that you might do as mentioned above hurt ME. thats the difference. If I sky dive and land on you it will not be good If I fly a plane man are we really in trouble If I drive to fast I could run you over etc.... get the hint??? i doubt it, too hung up on the ME to see, but nice try dragoness!

you have the right to do whatever you want... AS LONG AS WHATEVER YOU WANT TO DO DOESENT HURT OTHERS. This argument that you smokers have the right to pollute my lungs is based on your personal delusions, not the constitution. This is why these anti smoking laws are able to be implimented. Its a public health hazard, period. well, be that as it may, until it's outlawed, we'll be sitting next to ya in your one restaurant town You can't if we get up and leave or refuse to eat at that restaurant.

Its a public health hazard, period. you realize i made this thread as a joke, huh? The thing is the smart one's caught on to that, while the self rightios didn't. Hey, you don't like to smell smoke, good for you, I don't like to smell cow **** and I'm sure there is a lot of people in the world that doesnt like the smell of a lot of things. people don't laugh anymore, everybody is so uptight to the point, that it's almost better just to walk up and slug a guy, than to say hi. Well you went out of your way to say your piece on the matter, so I guess it's only right for me to, I peronally don't care what you think or others. I like to pretend freedom is real and if I want to smoke every now and then, well then I guess I will. Thing is life is choice, I choose to smoke and you choose to blow out your a ss. Do I have any logical reasoning for saying any of this? Nope, I sure don't, because well like I stated before, this was ment as a joke, now you gonna tell me a Priest a Rabbi and a Horse cant walk into a bar together?

ill be dead because of someone elses habit. is that ok with you? you make my point for me. Do you know how many people have grown up in smoker households before all the hype and are not dead yet from all that second hand smoke? I am living proof, my aunts and uncles, my brothers, etc..... I grew up in a two smoker household and they did not smoke outside for my sake etc.... I played track and volley ball in school. The effect of second hand smoke cannot be so extremely deadly or I would not be here to speak to you today. And I have smoked for a long time myself so I should aughta have taken a dirt nap by now with all the hype. Also I would like to add, I am respectful of others when I smoke because I LIKE to be respectful to others but if they shove their expected respect down my throat then I get a little uptight.

ill be dead because of someone elses habit. is that ok with you? you make my point for me. But you said none of those things can affect you but they can. That is what I am saying is all. Everyone has a choise. Like me I quit smoking but smokers still have rights too. Just like You do.
