Agreed. If cigarette smoke ONLY hurt those who actually smoke them, then fuck 'em, let 'em smoke. But the fact is, it hurts innocent bystanders, second hand smoke is deadly and you can get sick and even eventually die just from being AROUND smokers. Not hyperbole, FACTS.
And sorry smokers out there, you have zero right to bitch, whine or complain about anything. There is not and shouldn't be any such thing as "smokers rights". What you do is a sick, disgusting habit, you are pathetic drug-addicted junkies hurting those around you, and in my personal experience, most smokers are selfish, inconsiderate cocks, IE they don't give much if any thought to blowing their smoke into your air-space. And quest frankly, I don't care if you have a PHD and an IQ of 200+, if you smoke, you forfeit any and all claims to intelligence, simply put.
So yes, smoking should be outlawed worldwide. But it won't be any time soon, because there's too much $$$$$$ tied up in it, and not enough people are smart enough to give a shit. And to people on here trying the tired and flat out incorrect "personal freedom" gig, just stop. You should not have the personal freedom to smoke something that it's smoke can kill others who choose NOT to smoke and live cleanly, any more than you should have the personal freedom to run around stabbing people. Both are forms of assault, and you should not have the personal freedom to do something that hurts others. So yes, it should be banned, and no, there literally is zero intelligent, solid arguments in favor of smoking being legal.
