they cant ban smoking. a lot of people will be pissed off including myself but they could lower the fucking prices. what the fuck is going these past 3 or 4 years.
i enjoy smoking but fuck the prices.$6.00 for a pack of marlboro lights is hurting my wallet. A true smoker will not downgrade and smoke a pack of crappy mavericks. THE FUCKING GOVERNMENT SPENDS ALL THERE MONEY OUT AND GUESS WHO FEELS THE PAIN FROM IT. THE AVERAGE AMERICAN CITIZEN. WE NEED TO STAND UP AGAINST OUR GOVERNMENT AND BAN TOGETHER. WHO IS WITH ME?
Us smoker's in America are hurting too! Our only solution is to eat & drink at home & to hell w/the restaurant & bar industry! I'm retired now & thank God I am, because I would have never survived working w/the public in restarant & lounges all those years without my relaxing cigarettes! :P
4 years and thban has done nothing but close pubs and now there planing on doubleing the price of drink and if im being honest i wont go back to the pubs even if they recind the ban they chucked me and my pals out on the street because the pubs expected a army of non smokers to turn up and save them and they didnt turn up as far as im concerned they got what they deserved what with the bottom falling out of the pub traid and all
Cigarettes release endorphins, those wonderful little chemical chains that cause happiness. How fantastic for such a little stick of plant leaves! This is why I smoke! It is soothing and relaxing. It helps to calm down thoughts, and helps you to focus if you're angry or stressed. Perhaps if everyone would chill out with a cigarette once in awhile, people wouldn't be so uptight all the time.
Parkinson's Disease is almost non-existent in lifelong smokers. Some surgeons who are non-smokers chew tobacco during long surgeries for that extra "edge" just like baseball players. Cancer? You are either gonna get cancer or you're not. Smoking just makes it more aggressive in the people already prone to it.
Also, comparing cigarette smoke to car exaust is really stupid. A modern city can not fuction without motorized transportation, even if all the health issues of Tobacco consumption were poofed away by magic fairies, it is still purely recreational.
@SEThatered Let's say for the sake of argument that that the ban is ok. They're still making multiples of millions in tax dollars/pounds from our habit and offering state sanctioned cessation devices that have more than a 90% failure rate, which by 'coincidence' cost waaaaaay more than cigarettes. hmmmm. Why not do the euro thing and act like adults and offer the public pro and non smoking establishments? Allow consenting adults to make the choice. That's what i meant by fascism and it is.
@SEThatered Of course there is, and your points are perfectly valid. :) I don't want to blow smoke in a non smoker's face as i appreciate it must be nasty for you. All i'm saying is as a hard working tax payer i should have facilities set aside for my habit else there is a massive social hypocrisy in action here. I only want to have a cigarette, not piss anyone off.
@SEThatered and incidentally the smell of cigarette and pipe smoke is actually rather pleasant to many people. I remember as a kid loving the aroma of my father's pipe so it really is a matter of opinion, rather than fact. Adults should be allowed the freedom to choose especially given that smokers are still in the majority and one of the cornerstones of a democracy is the majoritive opinion rules. Fascism.
@SEThatered Also (and sorry to go on!) but the chairman of FOREST (Freedom Organisation for the Right to Enjoy Smoking Tobacco) is a NON smoker once again proving the issue concerns the erasure of choice for the individual. I'm 100% up for the implementation of non smoking establishments like i'm up for pro. In a mature democratic society choice is the most salient issue.

MY government "cultivated" it, by handing out free cigs to soldiers, and allowing pervasive advertising.
Agreed! There should be "proprietors' choice" clearly designated at the door as "smoke friendly - or not!
Then "consenting ADULTS" who prefer the company of other free thinkers, would retain their right to congregate together, free of the annoyance of the judgmental and self-righteous, whose tax burdens we bear - thank you very much!
Linnet - I believe the UK has similar provisions in its law.
Moreover, as someone who has absolutely NOTHING on his/her channel page - and who responds to a "pro-smokers' rights" vid that is STALE within hours, methinks you may well be one who is gainfully employed on the "Tobacco Control" bankroll.
TC folks refuse to recognize is that tobacco use is a FACT of our very existence. Gov'ts cultivated our habit, TAX us unmercifully for it, then deny our rights to congregate. Hypocrites!
What has having nothing on my channel page got to do with anything?
This law is to do with protecting people from harm. The tax collected is great - I agree. How can tobacco use be a fact of our existence? It does not sustain human life, in fact the very opposite is true.
Contrary to the squealing smokers, smoking has not been 'banned' in this country, it has been limited to smoking away from people who do not smoke.
I disagree that governments have cultivated our habit, they may have turned a blind eye because of the revenue. Nicotine is more addictive than heroin. Denial (by smokers) is akin to denial by alcoholics and other drug users that fail to see they have an addiction/problem.
As far as I am concerned, you can continue to smoke, but not next to me. Non smokers also have the right to freely assemble. I wouldn't want to share a pub with a smack head either.
And before you say it - I agree, there should be nominated pubs where you can get your 'fix' with your pint. And you can share with people who want to jack up and see how judgemental you are then!!!
@LinnetLegs1 You have probably "shared pubs" with smack heads, ecstasy heads, coke heads, pot heads, you name it,many many times, except you havn't seen them jacking up, snorting or whatever, because they indulge in their habits, behind closed doors, before going to the pub, club, or where ever..
Does anyone realize that smoking bans are Forced SEGREGATION???
Now, if some pubs were smoke friendly, and some were smoke free the PEOPLE would segregate themselves ... but when the GOV'T dictates it, that is a complete assault upon HUMAN RIGHTS.
In the U.S., we have this small document known as the Bill of Rights. Wherein it is stated that the "Right of the People to FREELY Assemble shall NOT be ABRIDGED."
Freely assemble to do what? It doesn't say anything about freely assembling to smoke does it? The Bill of Rights is for the people of the US, not the UK or EU.
Anti smokers should be tar and feathered bound by the legs sat on a chair and force them to watch 20 hours of gordon brown talking with no toilet breaks or sleep.
freedom of choice, i smoke and love it, all you do gooders who dont have a lfe need to get a life, and dig this and dig it good ass holes/smoke bashers are the same as gay bashers and child bashers!!
the differece betweeen smokers and non smokers is the Smokers dont give a fuck about you not smoking, you non smokers should try it,it might release all that exstra energy youve got to burn,or as i said get a life.
You must be fucking retarded or something. So someone enjoys smoking.. you somehow come to the conclusion that it means that they have no life? That makes zero sense.

Everything possible should be done to segregate smokers. Its a disgusting habbit that causes yellow teeth, wrinkles, , cancer, impotence, bad breath, lowered imunity to name the least (look at the victims in this video). And not only that but smokers are too addicted to even realise this. Do we want younger generations to engage in this disgusting activity. Keep the smoking ban & even better ban smoking altogether!!!
Former Italian Health Minister and outspoken anti-smoker Girolamo Sirchia was given a three year prison sentence yesterday for corruption and embezzlement.The man described as the architect of the Italian smoking ban and who will escape time in jail due to an amnesty by the current Italian government was instrumental in promoting the myths of the anti-smoking movement.He was convicted amongst other things of taking 'kick backs' from the pharmaceutical industry
