Well, if we ignore the obvious trolling and prejudice, cigarette

badly.


I think this is the main issue. Except in very smoky confined spaces, I'm
guessing that the cancer risk from other people's smoke is pretty minimal,
but those particulates can be very troubling for some. Any smoke is air
pollution, regardless of what's being burnt.


The smoker's attitude.'It's legal and therefore I can do it. If it pollutes
your airspace, .... tough'


The non smokers attitude. I don't like it so I want it banned
everywhere, if that restricts personal choice - tough.
