I don't think it's the right of a non-smoking person to demand that a smoker not be allowed to light up either. I think it's the government's DUTY to ban smoking everywhere. It's not just a matter of what people like or dislike. It's a matter of public health. In the same way that the government bans the use of formaldehyde in buildings because it is known to cause cancer, the government should also ban smoking in all buildings for the same reason. Smoking kills. Second hand smoke kills. Why should it be tolerated?

Does anyone seem to care about this fact...I refer to an earlier post that is scientificaly true, I might add...
"So it takes 40-60 years of smoking a pack of cigarettes a day to get cancer and die usually. That means 20 times a day you inhale a whole cigarettes worth of thick, pure smoke. Inhaling about 1/1000th of the smoke particles from one of those cigarettes a day is going to kill you after how many years?"
