Smoking Ban?

I'm all for this ban. I mean I'm in japan right now and smoking is legal on the beaches and it's disgusting! I mean people who have children do not want them to be walking or in my daughters case, crawling around on a beach that has hundreds of cigarette butts everywhere.

But Now i do believe that smoking should be allowed in bars.

I actually really like how you can't smoke inside of bars right now in California.

Almost every single establishment has outside areas to smoke cigarettes, and those outside areas have an atmosphere all their own. Sometimes it's nice just to get a breath of fresh air...

yeah, very true. But most bars I've been in have those....ummm....smoke eater things. Otherwise there's no way i could go into them, my ashtma would act up.

This smoking ban is just utter HORSE SHIT. you cant smoke in any establishment in new york, cali and a few other cities. This is a trend spreading to virtually every city. Smoking is a free choice. It is somthing that only hurts the person smoking.The dangers of Second hand smoke is a bunch of shit and has been proven time and time again to be a myth. I personally dont smoke, but i still recognize it as a freedom that is being taken away. If the smoke bothers you, then move. I mean what if your shitty perfume or cologn bother me, i can't complain and create a law for you to not be allowed to wear it (not yet) i have to move.

Actually second hand smoke is real. My little brother has a spot on his lung from smoke. He's 8 years old and has never touched a cigarette. But My mother smokes.

All claims in a discussion should be subjectable to a certain amount of proof. State your sources please. 😄

I imagine they would state otherwise...they hate cigarettes.

Heck, if a smoker wants to burn their lungs just becuase they crave a puffer in their mouths, that's their choice. Me, I don't want any of that 2nd smoke near me. So the ban is perfectly fine. Smoking cigarretes sucks!

i think bush is doing an adequate enough job of giving america a bad name. the only thing i can not comprehend is they banned smoking not for it's health hazards but the fact that smokers just throw their butts everywhere. so isn't it justifiable to ban sodas, marshmallows and everything that has a wrapper from the beach? no, it isn't. so why ban cigarette smoking? as i said before, people are litter bugs... or just plain a$$ lazy.

www.thetruth.com = Satans website. I hate the truth people more then anything on earth.

Like already said, second hand smoke is a real deal, so im all for the ban. There is nothing worse than sitting in a coffee shop and bunch of weirdo's poluting the air in the 6 mile radius arround them! 😘

If you wanna smoke, do it in your own house!

Of course, smoking in a inclosed coffee shop isn't the same as an open beach. Second hand smoke isn't even an issue on a beach, unless someones blowing it right in your face. In which case it's time to drown some mofo's.

I just hate their annoying commercials.

Propoghanda is what they push. Nothing more. Their website is equally patronizing and dumbfounding.

There is always someone whos gonna complain about it...you just know it.
This woman was having a go at my mom for smoking at the beach and her kids were arround, we warent even close to them or anything, but apperantly its ''polutting the enviroment'' or some shit like that...that was a year ago...

As long as there are people to complain about it and moan, there will be bans on places where there shouldnt really be one...i guess.

I never understood why people listen to idiotic complaints. You're mom should have just put the cigarette out in the womans eye ball and then wrapped her children in seaweed.

in my opinion, eshtablishments like coffee houses and restaurants shouldn't allow smoking inside the building. they could provide a seperate area for smokers to congregate and have a cloud session (that term is copy righted 😄 ). how much smoke can you inhale when you're in an open space? especially on abeach when most of the time it's breezy.

But when you look at the big picture everyone that has an agenda uses propaganda for their own cause. Folks at the Truth.com are agains't the tobacco industry so they use their propaganda agaisn't the industry. Unfortunally, their propaganda is getting annoying. Too much of that MTV generation BS kill the message.

Yes but there are few people out there that shove their agenda down the throats of the public as much as the Truth people do. I can't turn on my tv without seeing them preaching their lies and bullshit.

"people die of smoking". Holy shit, really?! You mean smoking is dangerous!? Who'd of thunk it!? God damn douche bags.
