sorry, i dissagree, it should be banned in public places.....a non smoker should be allowed to walk into a shopping centre / pub / restaurant etc without having to breath in someone elses second hand filth. if someone choses to smoke then that is their choice......it should not be publicly accepted that someone who does not smoke has to breath in that persons addiction.
how many adverts and health studies do smkers have to see that proves smoking kills/ affects health/ increases risk of cancers......... yet "some of you"
feckin whinge when the non smoking public rise up and say "feck off, im eating< i do not want to breath in your pollution to my air".
if your a smoker and wish to smoke then im all for that, that is freedon of choice. but dont tell me it is taking away your feckin rights if you sit in a public enclosed place and a rule is in place not allowing smoking. it is there for health reasons, not to target your individual right to pollute our air and our childrens air.....it is not a fecking conspiracy.......it is there to protect the health of the non smoking public. for fecks sake it's plastered all over your feckin fag packets that the shit kills, so why the feck should we not ask you to refrain from smoking in an enclosed public area ?
i bet you would be the first to complain if i moved next door and had a nuclear powered car, or large sattalite dishes all round the house emmiting harmful rays to you and your family.....it's exactly the same for non smokers.....
so please.....don't tell me they are taking away your rights...you have a home to smoke in, a car to smoke in....the open road to smoke in.......all they are asking is you do not force the general non smoking public / children to suffer from your addiction. personally i think it's fecking selfish of someone to smoke in a restaraunt / etc........ bvut history has shown it is all part of the pub scene to enjoy a pint and a fag, and i understand that, but that was before health studies proved that the habit kills, causes cancers and secdond hand smoke is just as harmful.
so try and see it in that persective and im sure you will see the logic behind the ban. about the only thing this feckin country has got right so far.
