i think the way that smokers are victimised for their habit is grossly unfair. alcohol causes far more problems in society than tobacco ever will and is just as bad for you, if not worse. alright i understand the problems passive smoking causes and any resonsible smokes will comply and understand that there are certain places you shouldn't smoke (e.g. planes, buses, cinema etc) but the anti smiking lobbyists just take it to the extreme. at the end of the day smoking is a legal activity so why shouldn't it be promoted through the usual channels?
