Just to correct another piece of your ignorance:
No a creation of the godess for humans to use and enjoy. Tobacco is a natural substance and you know what nature sometimes isnt all that friendly or warm and fuzzy ala Disney co.
Then if you where that severely disabled you shouldnt have been out and about in the filthy urban air anyhow. At least not without an oxygen mask and tank. I've been in cities where I'd smoke a cigarette just to have the freash air.
For real? wow you must not be able to go anywhere or do anything at all in an urban environment since the air in most urban environments I'vebeen in is much much worse and unhealthier and dirtier than 1 cigarette in the cavernous space of a movie theator. My condolences for not being able to enjoy the world.
Exactly I have never been in a department store, mall or movie theator in my life that allowed smoking. And we are talkign about rural appalachia here. Amusement parks are outside so whats the beef there?bars and retraunts are usually divided or one class only and the higher class ones will be so well ventilated that I've sat next to a smoker and not even smelled it. (the few times I've been in one of those swanky places that is) however you go to a redneck bar and sometimes you need a foglight to get to the bathroom. Big deal you know what a sort of place each place is so you go where you will be comfortable and not where you wont.
You begin to understand why banning items because of some arbitrary dislike or fear of potential harm is stupid and irrational.
Sad thing is too many of the intolerant (you hit the nail on the head there) anti-tobacco/anti-smoking whiny Beeches dont want to stop it just with a compromise and want to end all smoking and everythign. I bet you ask colcheck if he supported a total ban on tobacco products hed say yes. Which would just mean more people would be breakign the law (rightfully so as any law prohibiting that should be broken) to get their cigs.
You are a free and adult person who has the capacity to leave or remove yourself from the situation at anytime. A smoker is not holding you down and breathig in your face so shut your BS up about that and acting like you are forced to breath in someone elses smoke. Because you arnt. And if someone did hold you down and breath in your face like that then you would be having a much bigger problem.
smoking, a creation of man.
I don't think you understand how violently a smoke-intolerant person reacts to cigarette smoke. I used to be severely intolerant. Quite frankly, back then, I'd have preferred to be punched in the face. It would hurt less.
One cigarette in a room the size of a typical movie theatre would get me coughing.
What area of the country (what country) was this? People were not smoking in grocery stores, department stores and the like. Amusement parks, sure the asshole smokers will do that. But you haven't any people smoking indoors in public places since the mid to late 70's. At least not in the metropolitan area I have lived in my whole life.
I also can't agree with comparing peanuts to cigarettes. There are people allergic to aspirin. If we ban peanuts because people are allergic to that, why not aspirin? What about dairy?
Keep your cigarettes away from the places we need to go, and we're all cool.
I cross the line when I /purposefully/ put someone's life in danger, by doing my best to inflict upon them that which harms them
