Smoking Ban?

Started by WindDancer7 pages

The one thing that puzzles me about thetruth.com is that WHO is founding them? Someone has to flip the bill from all those commercials and ads on TV, Billboards, Magazines. I mean, where do they get their money from?

Here there's been a ban on smoking in public places from I believe from June 1st of this year.
You can't smoke in bars, bingo halls, casinos, and race tracks.
Only allowed to smoke in well ventilated areas, and that too will be illegal in the coming years 😬

Does the government not give them something? 😕

Yes, but the government gives them a certain amount of money. The guys at the truth.com uses so much advertesing that it is amazing! Maybe they also depend on donations from families affected by smoking. I gotta get into more on them. Now, I'm interested.....🥷

I'm sure that donations are a big contributer ✅

Also I'm for banning it in open spaces myself, like for example at an amusement park, there's no need for it there ❌
Specially not in line like some people do 😠

You touch a good point on that silver tears. When ppl are in line waiting in some theme park or a concert it is consider open space. And of course there are ppl who smoke in line. That's just not right! I can't get out of line becuase I will lose my spot. So it is very unfair for someone to be smoking next to you and making the rest breath all that smoke!

I totally agree. At a couple of amusement parks i've been to the allowed you to smoke the whole time! I mean how gross is it to be sitting on a ride with cigarette butts in your car 🙁

Smoking is a dirty habbit altogether, but...hmm...banning it complitely on public places...i dont know.

The Nazis banned smoking from the public. Hmmmm....

I think you'll find that Nazis did many good things in Germany as well as bad ✅

Banning smoking is somthing that the goverment shouldnt, and oh yeah isnt allowed to do. However, they are doing it. Just because some people dont like the idea of smoking, or like having to be around people smoking is an absurd reason to ban smoking. these people are little minded and think they know what's best for other people. These are the same people tearing down america within. If you would do some research, you then find that second hand smoke has never been proven to cause damage to another person. It has never been proven using sciene.

Why not ban alchohol? This is far more dangerous, and does cause more deaths a year. No matter what the truth commercials tell you. smoking a ciggarete is not going to influence you to beat your kids, crash your car and kill a family, it is not going to influence you to do the other hundreds of dumbass things that alchohol does. Comparing these two substances is the same thing, however one is not as dangerous as the other. Just because you dont like it, doesnt give you a reason to protest other people who do. You know why they dont ban alchohol? because they tried that alreday. It diddnt work, it enraged many many Americans. America lost money, tons of it. the reason smoking isnt being banned right away is because it would cause the same uproar prohibition did. They are doing it slowly. Alchohol and red meat will be the next thing to go.

was that nazi remark a joke lil?

No, 🤨

I think you'll find Hitler did some good things for Germany in time of his rule, it wasnt all shitty.
Banning smoking in public places was one of them.

i dont know man. Everything hitler did was to gain the approval of the german people, so he could ultimately brainwash the entire country. Everything was done in his view of a better germany, not the peoples view of a better germany.

stupid...this law is just f*cking stupid......im sick of all these people b*itching about 2nd hand smoke....do you know how much 2nd hand smoke you have to inhale for it to do some damage?...alot....kids whos parents smoke get affected by 2nd hand smoke coz of the years ..i said YEARS....there parents light up...why isnt anyone more worried about these kids there the ones who should be b*tching not someone whos not around smoke and is annoyed coz someone lights up in amusement park line or the beach...tough sh*t...cry me a river.....i dont smoke but next time i go to an amusement park i'll be sure to... just to piss everyone off..2 minutes of dealing with smoke in a line isnt gonna do jack sh*t to you or your health...thats a FACT...ask any nutrienest or scientist......if someone starts smoking for a year...and than quits for a year...that smoke is out of of their system.....so two minutes isnt gonna do jack

im sure people are gonna question what i say but like i said...you dont beleive..any scientist will back me up on this.....and for all thetruth.com people...they get some of there funding from tobacco companies...those types of compaigns were started by tobacco companies...people are always gonna smoke..and theres no such thing as bad press...press is press....so why these new age hippies are spreading "the truth" at the same time there advertising for the companies there against....put that in your pipe and smoke it 😮‍💨

You sir are an idiot 😐
First I don't give a damn about the amount of smoke it takes to harm someone, the fact remains the line is public, and any decent human being should have the common courtesy for fellow human beings not to smoke there since others are present, and especially children, want a smoke, find a secluded area and light up there.

Unless they go to everyone in line and ask for their permission then don't do it because even if it bothers only a few people it does bother them. Not to mention the fact that some people are allergic, I don't go around shoving peanut butter in people's faces just because I can 🙄

And for the beaches issue, I wouldn't wanna be setting foot on a beach littered with cigarette butts, I'm all for designated areas to smoke, but have some courtesy for others around you.

And a minute of second hand smoke may not kill you, but it can irritate you, or cause and allergy attack or whatever. People should have the right not to be subjected to second hand smoke, therefore people shouldn't do it in public.

the beach is a dirty place to begin with. the birds poop in it, people pee in it, they leave tampons, dirty diapers, soiled whatever, no to mention the sea water. i said it before and i'll say it again... there are far grosser things in a beach other than a cigarette butt.

It is an American right to not have to care how other people feel. I am much more bothered by people, by merely walking down the street of my city and having to put up with all there shit. How about the bums on the street who are to lazy to get a friggin job and harrass me for money? How about people who drive in the streets and dont care about the person who has the right of way? How about the person who had a bad day so they think there entitled to be a dick to everyone else? How about the daily dose of every human being that makes your day a shitty day? these people dont care about there fellow man. I am much more bothered by all these jerk offs than i am by a little cigarete smoke. Besides, most people who smoke are very considreate of other people, if you just ask nicely, and tell them the smoke is bothering you, most times they will quit or move. Some times they dont, but you forget one thing THEY DONT HAVE TO> It isnt harming anyone but them. It may annoy you, but cant you put up with somthing so insignificant so that the day can go on peacefully. Maybe your being the inconsiderate one, buy thinking there the ones who have to stop utilizing a right of theirs.

are you done crying?.....im sure you dont give a damn about how much smoke it takes to harm someone....why would you care right?..its just an inconveince to you..its not gonna kill you...most smokers dont blow smoke into peoples faces but im sure they make exceptions for people like you and i'd like to see you try and throw peanut butter in someones face even if there not allergic...getting permissinon from people in line?😆...thats funny...i dont see any woman askin my permission to breast feed in public...but than again...i'm not gonna b*tch and moan coz they have that right to do it either

if your allegergic to smoke...let the person know it and like rage said im sure they'll be more than happy to put it out...but since it is public place and public line with no nonsmoking signs that smoker has every god given right to light up... but smokers have to put up with whiney b*tchy crybabies like you everytime they light up....why dont you b*tch and moan at the amusement park for not have having desinginatd areas to smoke instead of the smokers...even when there is desginating smoking nonsmokers are gonna b*tch and cry......

and for the beach....like already stated....stepping on a ciggarette butt is the last thing anyone should be worried about when there at the beach.....you know people have sex there right?..why dont you look out for the condoms, diapers, and broken beer bottles instead of a lousy ciggarett but

You can't prove for a fact cigarette smoke doesn't harm right away, and it may be their right, but apparently people are agreeing on this ban or else it wouldn't pass or whatnot, so apparently smoking is more bothersome than any of the afore mentioned things.

And I didn't say that people should stop altogether, yes it is a right, and they decide how to spend their time, but in public areas everyone has to deal with it, and not everyone wants to inhale it.

And yes some beaches are disgusting, but do you really need a cigarette that bad when you're there, can you not wait a few hours, and enjoy a smoke somewhere where it won't bother anyone?
