Tobacco tax racist towards Maori?

The problem is those of us who want to go out for a beer or eat a meal in peace and we are forced to breath in smoke.

I don't care if anyone wants to smoke, that's up to them. But if I have to cough and stink like shit for someone else to fuel their addiction, then is it "my right to smoke"?

What about fines for wankers who sit in a crowd and force 20 people to breath their smoke?

yeah. but i could apply the same argument against townies. like. i don't want to sit in traffic and/or inhale diesel fumes, so gtfo my road.

everyone will always be disturbing someone elses peace. where the line is to be drawn?

You could have your beer INSIDE the pub or have your meal INSIDE the restaurant/cafe, places where us leppers have been banned from, it's your choice to sit outside with the people who choose to kill themselves slowly

So, you would be quite OK with sitting outside with someone who may be "harmful to the health of others" then?

Smokers can't choose their area, non smokers can. Sit and suffer, or move indoors.

Just asking. I'm glad that you will be happy to sit outside with me, whilst I'm loading my .357 revolver. It's not harmful to others...

Yip
You can do what you like with your .357 but if you look like causing me harm then I'd go somewhere else. Simple really.

Smoking stinks like fuck but smokers should be able to smoke their heads off as long as they dont impose thier stinking shit on others.....and there in lies the problem........

[Puffin' Billy]

smoking needs to be made mandatory from highschool through uni. any pussies that get cancer obviously aren't genetically superior enough to breed, or work.

smokers are better than other people.

I'm with akzle on this one. preach it brother

Hmmm.

come sniff me bro

I guess that whether you agree about smoking stinking or not........smoking is a choice that a lot of us choose not to partake in.......even if we used to smoke. Smoking can be imposed on those that dont want it, by smokers "exercising their rights" .......and that stinks too....
why should non smokers have to sit indoors on nice evenings at resturants or bars because of smoke?

[Madness]

At the end of my nose but not in my back yard, hokay?

Restaurants and Bars aside, where do you normally choose to smoke?
