Corner Kid Posted November 20, 2003 Share Posted November 20, 2003 if they ever banned cigarettes there would be a lot of bitchly people walking around craving nicotine... Hah, yeah, that would be pretty bad... Instead they should just make more smoke-free zones... and keep raising the price until one day people are like "10 bucks? meh...

Cigarrettes are a drug, and any drug is bad, repelled by society, so this has to be too! I don't know why people ignore or just accept other people smoking cigarrettes, when smoking pot or heroine it's the same; they are both drugs, they are not good for you, and they do not do any god to your health. Do you know ho mucha goverment looses for health problems related to cigarrettes? It's the second thing, besides heart problems. I hate to think that I, a non smoker, have the same probabilities that have breathign problems because of the smoke that cigar produces........... I mean you're not killing yourself, been a charge for the goverment and spending your money in somenthing completely unnecesary; you're also killing the person besides you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corner Kid Posted November 20, 2003 Share Posted November 20, 2003 the thing that gets me is smoking around children, thats the worst. A kid I went to school with came down with lung cancer from 2nd hand smoke. He never smoked a day in his life, but they found traces of cigarette smoke build-up in his lungs. He didnt even live with smokers. Thats why i think it should be illegal to smoke around children. Its just sad when you see parents with little kids, and they have to sit in the smoking section because the parents smoke. People who smoke try to ignore the facts, like one of my best friends. he's a heavy smoker and one time we were watching TV and one of those "Truth" commercials came on. I asked him how he felt about them, and he said "I just tell myself what every smoker tells themselves; that its not going to happen to me, it'll happen to someone else." Every day for three years he's told me that he's going to quit. No progress yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a smoker, I'll never smoke around children, or anyone older who asks me not to. I respect anyone who dislikes it, and I'm not looking to harm anyone (other than myself, I guess?) with it. People shouldn't be shy, and they should say when it bothers them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarah here Posted November 20, 2003 Share Posted November 20, 2003 There is absolutely nothing wrong with smoking. Of coarse it causes lung cancer and causes you to die young, but people enjoy doing it. isn't it better to live an enjoyable short life smoking rather than a long miserable life?

Cigarettes dont enrich your life, they make you depend on them, or else you become grumpy. I limit myself with chemically addictive things, and its enriched my life. I was addicted to caffeine, I had to have it, or I couldnt wake up. When I stopped, I started sleeping in til 3 in the afternoon, but finally I'm back on a good schedule and it was well worth it.

People shouldn't be shy, and they should say when it bothers them. Well I completely repelled/reppeled the smoke, and I always ask people not do it, or not to smoke in front of me, but it seems like they don't know how bad it is or how disgusting/discusting. Usually/Ussualy, when I ask someone not to smoke they just laugh! because is somenthing that has become normal and it's rather unussual/unusuall to find a person who ask you not to smoke. For avoiding trouble, I just don't go to places where I could find people smoking, but for example, when I use the subway I always "get mad" (I don't know any other way to put it in English) because people smoke inside, it's a small place, it's a public space and you just can't tell them a thing, because we're suppose to be free in actions, so it's their choice really.
