I love the smoking bans, and yes I used to be a smoker. long time ago. I don't mind others smoking if that is what they choose to do, I beleive in each to their own, which is precisely why I like the bans. I don't think those who choose not to smoke should be forced to inhale it and risk cancers and other illness issues such as allergies and asthma due to it. I know smokers often think they are bieng picked on but they can choose to smoke or not smoke, those who don't can't choose not to inhale it if it's everywhere. Although I do think they should make provisions for those to do want to smoke, perhaps a separate location outside with at least a windbreak or a covered place to do it so they aren't forced to be out in harsh weather if they choose to do it.
