No... Just no.....

Driving a car is a means for transportation, getting to and from work, smoking is... A means for dying and killing others around you? Selfish.

Get a fucking scooter. You wouldn't have to deal with us murderers.
Seriously you should get your head out your ass and stop looking down on everyone.
You act as if youd die from inhaling a bit of smoke.

You sound ridiculous. Stop over exaggerating to try and get your point across, which is just "smoking is bad!" No shit, we get it already. How does smoking kill others around you? No one is holding you down and blowing smoke in your face. If someone is smoking near you, then walk away. It's certainly not hard to avoid it when you're just standing outside, which nowadays is the only place people can smoke not including their own homes. The only example of hurting those around you would be people who smoke inside their house and around their family, which is yes very wrong in many ways. That doesn't mean you need to blame all smokers just because of the shitheads who don't care about anyone but themselves. For the most part, smoking only hurts yourself and if someone still wants to smoke, then get over it.

Seriously, you are such a whiny little bitch. I can't think of even one time in my life where smoke has come through my window from the car in front of me. Smoke rises and it will no doubt fade away far before it reaches the car behind. You are just looking for any reason at all to complain. Even if you happen to get a whiff of smoke, then who cares? You definitely aren't going to get cancer or will it affect you negatively in anyway whatsoever, so why do you feel the need to cry so much about it? Oh right, you might have to smell it for 2 seconds. Boo fucking hoo.

Damn, Sythe badass. You're pretty aggressive there, settle down.

One public service announcement proclaims, "When you smoke, you're not the only one being harmed."

That's not a myth. Studies that followed nonsmokers exposed around smokers have some increase in lung cancer and heart disease.

I personally live in a big city, there are constant smokers around me exposing me and other nonsmokers. Coming from "ATL" i would expect you to understand this. We have heavy flow of traffic "Rush hour" in some instances you are reach distance to another car, on average, smoking. You sit in traffic nearly 15-30 minutes constantly breathing someone else's smoke, depicted as harmful. Now, lets see if you can keep up with all that anger you're holding in..

Fact: Passive smoking causes 35,000 to 62,000 deaths annually due to heart disease. Put in plain English, this means that secondhand smoke causes at least 35,000 deaths and as many as 62,000 deaths from heart disease

Fact: Passive smoking

That means second hand smoke.

CalEPA has a studied estimate of 3000 deaths for lung cancer.

CalEPA has a range of risk for SIDS of 1900 to 2700 deaths; the best single estimate is the midpoint, 2300 deaths

I can honestly continue to prove my fact. Smoking causes nonsmokers harm.

I'm not telling you not to smoke, i honor and respect each life but if you choose to taint it by ingesting toxic chemicals then i don't care if you die or not, don't be selfish and expose other people because of your disgusting habits. If you're going to smoke keep it contained (inside your car with your windows rolled up or inside your house).

If smokers are causing 35,000 to 62,000 deaths from second hand smoking, they're mainly exposing adults with developed lungs, imagine what you're doing to children who aren't fully developed.

It's rude to others, if your'e not going to have enough respect for yourself the least you can do is have respect for others. Also, no one here stated that smokers are low class, you give yourself that name, no one is naming you low class.

Get a fucking scooter. You wouldn't have to deal with us murderers.

There's no such thing as a "little" bit of smoke, use a little bit of your intelligence.

This is a biased, somewhat mean, opinion on smokers, so if you dont want to hear it, dont read below-

I believe smoking, or drugs, or anything like that is for pussies. People who cant handle there life. People use it as a way to get away from there stress, use it as a coping mechanism because they dont know how to cope. I dont mind if people smoke, as long as it is not around me. Anything besides that, like drugs, i will NOT associate with the person while high, or going to be high, or was just high.

Now, dont get me wrong, i do NOT think smokers are bad people, they are just weak, and would rather take the easy way out.

Ill probably recieve tons of hate for this, but it is my opinion, and i feel i should share also.

The fact that you feel that EVERYONE who uses drugs are weak only reveals your idiotic bigotry and complete misunderstanding of drugs. You have provided zero reasons for your opinion and have also not supplied any situations that have led you to your opinion.

A very compelling argument could be made that drugs ( I prefer the word substances ) have contributed to the enlightenment of human beings.

You have a predisposition to anyone that uses drugs is running from stress and/or problems in their lives yet fail to realize that you, in not experiencing drugs/different perspectives of the mind, are actually weaker for not having a broader view of life.

I think smoking is an idiotic habit, but I don't go out of my way to chew people out for it. If you want to spend $10 a day to smell bad and get lung cancer, go for it. However I do mind when people light up near me. I shouldn't have to breath in your second hand smoke and also hurt my lungs.

I couldn't agree more.
I don't see any positive outcomes from smoking.

Also; too many people are getting really angry on this thread. It should be closed.

 

Yada yada yada, let people do what they want. This isn't a forum for preaching about smoking and this isn't the correct section for any kind of debate.
