The lease should have said no smoking allowed. That being said, smokers don't just impact their own insides; their smoke diffuses into the surrounding atmosphere, and then seeps through cracks in walls and through ductwork until it lends an odor to an entire building. Suppose that cigarette smoke smelled like hydrogen sulfide (rotten eggs); would defenders of indoor smoking be as likely to defend it then? Probably not. To some of us, the smell of cigarette smoke, even at a distance, is almost as offensive as the smell of rotten eggs.

Silly arguments, specially "suppose" ones, are a riot.
Suppose your gross overweight body produces an intolerable smell offending others for a radius of 100 yards. Can the rest of us have you evicted?
Suppose you start dating a martian who smells like Jabba the Hutt?

Suppose...

Cigarette smoke can be difficult for people with respiratory problems to deal with. Even when it's outdoors.

I sympathize, I really do.

So I hope you will understand what I find most offensive on the planet and together we can work together for an amicable solution.

I get sick, visibly sick, at the sight of heavily overweight women. They make me want to puke (I am serious, here.)

The questions is, if I lived in an apartment with a bunch of them, can I get them kicked out of building?

Should I be able to?

Can I keep them off subways, buses, out of high rise buildings I might frequent.

Is this my problem or is it theirs?

Think about it.
