Why are smokers so hated by teh governments? It's our right to fuck up our health if we feel like it and please gtfo. Also why can't pub/club/restaurant/other shit owner decide if he wants to ban smokers? Why not make only-for-smokers pubs and so on? Enjoy your stink of sweat in clubs :)

if u smoke by urself.. ur smoking active and passiv.... so isnt more unhealthy!
You are smoking.
It's a common belief that second-hand smoke is more unhealthy but it's just a belief, there's nothing true about it.
I have never smoked but that doesn't turn fiction into facts.
I don't mind people smoking, not at all, but the very second I smell smoke, no matter where I am, even on the street... A smoker is not only ruining his body, but also mine (actually it's already before the human nose is able to smell it).
And that's why smoking should be banned from EVERYWHERE except your own home/property.
And to the issue, I think it is a good thing that they have reduced smoking in bars and public places. Just give us the small room where we can slowly kill ourselves.
But let me get my cancer in peace, don't huzzle with it.
:D
PS: A non smoker have talk
let's ban everything that gives you cancer!!!!!!!!
ofc you can say that about everything that may produce cancer
but: I really enjoy that I can go out for dinner now and enjoy my food without sitting in fog and all my clothes stinking like hell when I leave the restaurant after an hour
quite ridiculous it isnt allowed to smoke in pubs anymore though.
Went to a club in Latvia where smoking was still allowed in a club. It seemed cool when 2-3 ppl smoked, but when more ppl started smoking it was just disgusting.
So dont whine man, there will still be smokerooms in pubs and clubs.

I'll quote Masuka: "It's 2010, who the fuck smokes?"
i only smoke blunts, putting almost no tabaco because i cant support the smell and taste from the tabaco, getting high is a better feeling :-)
oh i forgot, if a someone is smoking a cigarette near me, i usually push them away and tell them they smell bad :D
Same goes for all this "radiation" released from nuclear waste and stuff, fucking overrated lies they are. I mean you're engulfed by radiation all the fucking time, radios wouldn't work without it and whatnot. It's all lies and doesn't cause cancer at all.
Sorry, I was just kidding. You're retarded and wrong.
Anyhow, as smoking has been proven to increase the chances to get lung cancer by like ten times (actually I think it was more), not to mention the other things like branial stroke, what's the point of it? People who smoke die like twenty years younger than people who don't, which is a fact. I mean, of course there are a lot of carcinogens in everyday items (e.g. it's debated whether margarine might cause cancer, which sounds like a load of bullshit to most people, but fifty years ago people thought that smoking doesn't cause cancer either, but instead helps to prevent it), but tobacco is one of the worst.
And yeah, it's everyone's own decision whether they want to smoke or not (although the Finnish government is aiming to make Finland the first completely smoke free country in Europe), but it's also my decision whether I want to be around smokers, and hence breathe in the foul smelling and unhealthy smoke or not. And of course I don't want to be around them, it's extremely hard to breathe next to a smoker and in addition to that the stench catches to your clothes and then you smell bad for days, too. And hence restricting smoking in public places is a good thing.
also cancer has been around for a very long time, probably as long as mammals we just didnt know what it was. "The oldest known description and surgical treatment of cancer was discovered in Egypt and dates back to approximately 1600 BC. The Papyrus describes 8 cases of ulcers of the breast that were treated by cauterization, with a tool called "the fire drill." The writing says about the disease, "There is no treatment."[105]"
it may have been around earlier, i guess i should have said cancer has increased [a high percentage] in the last couple hundred years. basically his statistics confirm what i said.
Not to mention all the unnecessary harm caused to "passive smokers" by retards who smoke indoors or on bus stops or terraces of pubs.
The one thing I disagree with in terms of a public-smoking ban is that it is applied universally. This might sound odd, but I think it should be up to the club or pub to decide whether they would become a non-smoking institution.
not in canada.
you CAN smoke at pubs,parks,many places
wtf is a unis.....
cant smoke within 2 meters of a doorway/ac intake.
