You are a typical addict.. any evidence that goes against your drug

choose to ignore it.

There's also loads of evidence that alcohol harms many many people -
more die from its effects each month than die in a year from heroin.
Nor can you say it only effects the users - many city centres are near
no go areas due to its abuse.

Irrelevant and typical of the junk smokers bring up to justify their
addiction.

Really? It's perfectly relevant since *you* brought up drugs and addiction.


So I just hope as a likely boozer you'll be just as in favour of a
similar restriction on that when it comes - as it will, given all
government's love of control.

There are already laws to control drunkenness and they have been there
far longer than antismoking laws.

And are ignored or not enforced.

And I know of nobody that has suffered from secondary drinking in a
pub/restaurant or cinema.

I'm willing to bet far more have been killed by others under the influence
of alcohol than have ever been harmed by passive smoking.
