It can kill you. The second hand smoke danger argument is tenuous at best.

The current 'cure'; Big Government tyrants forcing people NOT to smoke at the point of a gun is far more dangerous.

Left unchecked they will kill far more people including those near and dear to you than smoking ever has, or ever will.

The score for these tyrants is 100,000,000+ deaths for the last century alone.

Smoking doesn't hold a candle to that.

I quit smoking. I still dislike anti-tobacco zealots intensely. I feel that smoking is a horrible habit. However, I feel that anti-tobacco zealotry is a mental illness whose sufferers should be involuntarily committed.

Let me try dissembling some of the leftist propaganda from your rather interesting post

Smoking is a *disgusting* < habit < that > can kill you > +and those around you.+

*Disgusting* is a wholly subjective and trendy descriptive word, especially considering that smoking was considered a perfectly normal and acceptable activity until about 15 years ago.

< Habit < is another wholly subjective word. Many people smoke only on certain occasions, others smoke constantly.

> Can kill you > So can walking down the street.

+ and those around you.+ Show me ONE death certificate that lists “secondhand/sidestream/environmental or whatever the term of the day is tobacco smoke and I’ll back off.

I am SICK beyond words of you anti-smoking GNATZIS constantly trying to force your shallow, baseless accusations against smokers simply because you *FEEL* like you *MIGHT* somehow be affected by some perceived alleged toxin.

There was a certain WWII leader who felt EXACTLY the same way you do about smoking. He was also an animal rights supporter, and a vegetarian.

Fortunately, his side lost.

Now those same folks who have ostracized and alienated smoking are coming after boozers. If that’s not your vice, don’t worry, they’ll be going for the fatties right after that. Then it’ll be those who don’t exercise.

Have no fear, FRiends, YOUR ox WILL be gored too. It’s just a matter of time.
