"A lot of people can smoke without repercussions.......some can't. It all depends on generics."

It very well may be true that because of some's stronger immune system, their bodies are more tolerant. But what right is it of a smoker to decide whose body is more tolerant by subjecting them to second-hand smoke? Don't get me wrong, I smoked for twenty-three years and truly enjoyed every one - except the last one...

It’s been proven that non-smokers who work around second hand smoke, smoke the equivalent of 6 cigarettes a year. Not hardly a life-threatening situation.

A Federal Court threw out the EPA’s Study on second hand smoke. It was slanted and bias. Our own Government ORNL Labs in Tennessee put forth a study that second hand smoke is not the killer the anti-health fanatics would like the general public to believe. So, if our own government couldn’t prove second hand smoke is a killer, are the anti’s saying that our government committed fraud?

Where have you ever seen it argued a smoker has the right to subject another to second-hand smoke?
