I realize that one trip to a restaurant is not going to kill you, but I bet you go a restaurant more than once in your life time. Eventually that starts to add up. And you have to remember, 2nd hand smoke is even worse than 1st hand smoke, because the smoker has a filter on the cigarette, where as the innocent person sitting next to him does not. If a smoker wants to endanger their own life, then I don't care. It's their life, and they can do with it whatever they want. But when they take their dirty habit, and affect other people with it, and potentially endangering other lives besides their own, thats where the line gets crossed, and thats where I get mad. And I deeply apologize if I offended anyone with my last statement. I am simply trying to prove my point, and sometimes, the best and only way to do that is to show you the cold hard truth, and that's usually very unpleasant. |

I personally am against smoking it dose kill...my Grandma died a little early thanks to it it really dose nothing but ruin your health. I see why they don't want it in public places because the smoke fumes can be a nuisance. but that's my opinion and I think if they banned it totally that it would maybe not work (even if it may help people who get confused and smoke) because people are still going to crave it and look for it so it could become a problem, but I am totally against it but that's just me. |

I really think Australia should go with that ban. I an few days or weeks it will be banned in clubs. But I think you should only be aloud it at your house and don't make everyone suffer from it. I went to Sydney for 2 days and when we were walking to ctach the Light Rail to Star City I breathed as little as I could. But that wasn't only because of the smoke it was from the cars and the candles from inside shops. But whenever I have to walk past someone smoking I always hold my breath. |

WELL, actually 1st hand smoke is the worst because the smoker breathes in both the filtered and unfiltered smoke. While the 2nd hand smoke only reaches the others. Car exhaust.. well.. there are laws that work with that one. (except of course for the oh so wonderful hummer that ruins our environment. YAY!) I am highly for the ban. It'll be nice in Chicago especially because I go there so often and its quite annoying when people smoke. And for anyone who says its impossible, aha and they thought the driving on a cell phone ban in downtown Chicago wouldn't work. HAHA. Smoking is bad. It seriously has no point but to kill you. It doesn't even give you a "high" or "buzz" or anything, its totally and completely pointless. D: Not like its good to do other drugs or drink (which I am NOT promoting by the way) but yea.. seriously. Smoke on your own time, and ruin your own lungs in your own soiled house because when you smoke in your house, tar is going on your wall. Oh and have fun getting emphysema! Congrats. :] (This post was not intended to be offending in any way. Please do not take offense to it. Thank you. :]) |

Haha. Sorry, Kilo, but if a law like that for drinking ever came into action, I doubt very much it'd happen. I mean, I dunno about over there but over here, lots of people drink. Especially under-age people. And what's funny is, their parents let them. Some parents even let their kids hold parties at their house and let them all have alcohol, get drunk and go crazy. Some even get stoned if they're lucky. But if parents, the ones who are meant to set example to us teenagers and younger ones, act like that, then gawd...laws like those will never work. And that goes for just about everything else. Anyhoo~ I don't like this smoking ban, even it it does have very good intentions. Sure, like others have said, it's just taking away a small part of a freedom and reducing it to a bare minimum (HOLY CRAP I just realised that 'minimum' is spelt like 'mini-mum' GAWD ...scary~ D| ), but that's not very fair. I think Scarlet (and maybe others but I'm not sure) said it but why not just open a bar or something, JUST for smoking (and drinking)? I mean, seriously...not everyone's home enough to enjoy a smoke. Most adults have kids, and it wouldn't be fair on them. Or their partners (if the partner doesn't like it) or any other family member for that matter. Fine, keep the ban in family restaurants and public places like those, but at least have SOME designated ares for smokers and smokers only. That way, non-smokers can enjoy they're smoke-free areas and vice-versa. All non-smokers'll need too to do now though to make it all perfect is to just keep clear of those bars which smoking IS allowed. Now doesn't that make more sense than having the ban everywhere and make it seem more fair? Gawd, it's not that hard. Also, complaining about people smoking is not nice....they don't go around complaining how you DON'T smoke. It's just right. Now, I'm not aiming this to just a single member, but just in general. It's just not right...I'm sure you wouldn't like randoms, or even your friends, to complain about how you like something that they don't. Whether it's life threatening or not. Yeeeaahh...I think I'm done babbling on now, thanks. :] <3 |
