[Discussion] Smoking

I'm sorry to say this, but the exhaust from a car delivers far more Co2 than a simple cigarette does, yet I won't see you complaining. I understand the fact that you say that it hurts non-smokers by being passive, but no obligates non-smokers to come stand around smokers. If it's the other way around, the non-smoker can tell the smoker to come back when he's finished. It sounds stupid, but it's the perfect solution to what you said. I understand your pov though, that is irritating in places with children and pregnant women, and on a closed bus or tram, I'm glad it isn't allowed in Belgium, because it's not because I'm a smoker that I approve of smoking everywhere.
For example, when you're eating in a restaurant, and that stereotypical big guy with the mustache and no hair lights a cigar with his whisky or other drink; It isn't fun, I have the same opinion.
I only want to say that there are far worse things than smoking, even for non-smokers. As for the illness parts, it's true, but then again it depends on howmuch you smoke, your body, diseases you have etc.
My greatgrandfather turned 93 or something before he died, and smokes all his life but the doctors never found him having diseases or problems. + he worked in the coal mines. It all depends on yourself I guess.
(P.S. I am in no way trying to be offensive

Its true. During a pregnancy the legs and arms develop in the beginning, so if a smoker does not know she is pregnant at first and keeps smoking it will mutate those properties of a person, i.e. legs and arms.
Also to people who say that it keeps them calm, really? Thats is like admitting how weak you are mentally. Maybe just stop doing what stresses you and you wont have an excuse anymore. Like I say excuses are like *******s...everyone gots them
Way to go...i totally agree with all of you...

ive been a smoker for like 4 years now, im not a heavy smoker, average one cig a day never really need more than one unless im at a party gettin drunk or if im high as a kite lol, its really not as addictive as people think it is if you have a strong mind.. i mean like some people think it relieves stress, **well NEWSFLASH the "stress" sensation that your feeling is actually a lack of nicotine which causes somewhat of a withdrawal, so when you feel like your stress has been relieved after your cigarette, its actually ur body reacting to getting its fix ^^*** i can quit at any moment..smoking cigarettes that is, weed is a whole nother discussion ^^ but yea i support smokers ! do what makes YOU feel good so long as it doesnt hurt any1 else.
