I think it's not really that necessary to make smoking illegal. I think it really depends on the smoker though I do suggest that the smokers should consider the people around them. Like in public vehicles, I think that they should think twice before lighting their cigarettes.. - in my own opinion Wink

Well, i think it should be illigal because it's not only the smoker who get all the bad things in the body, also everyone nearby, passive smoking Smile

And if your like me (kinda allergic, runnig nose, and tears comming from eyes O.o) then it is really annoying if your at a party with alot of smoke, or if you sit in a resturant, then it annoys me when i can't enjoy my food because someone have to smoke inside =/

I personally despise smoking and smoking related activities. I think it's a disgusting habit and i don't like the smell.

Do I think it should be illegal? Absolutely not. It's not the government's responsibility to regulate such things. Besides, making it illegal would make it even more popular among teens. You're better off just educating your kids better.

I voted NO because i believe that no one is God to dictate our life!It`s our decision to smoke, or not, to live beside a smoker, or not! I`m smoking for 14 years now and i believe it`s time to stop, but i also i believe that i will not stop smoking until it becames prohibited!Thats what i think!

I don't choose to live beside a smoker when I walk by smokers in the street or go into a smoke-filled bar.

Sure, smokers have rights, but why do they infringe non-smokers?

I think that the government has no business regulating personal choices like smoking. But that's just me--it's obviously a little more complicated than that, mostly because smoking *is* harmful to the health of others, so you have to weigh your right to smoke against the right of others to breathe clean air in a public place...

So shouldnt Cigerettes be illegal, i mean to start making it illegal now will kinda hurt but first they can start having them where they wont be sold in any stores, etc. sooner or later it will be down to like only a few 100 people smoking like marajuiata, but thats actsually good, people there wont be thousands of people died from smoking Cigeretts, but by having it illegal, and banning them from being sold in any stores, would help are children, and family safe from at least that. any opinons feel free, thank you :)

there are many disadvantages but few good ones for me atleast. cigs help me reduce stress. It also prevents me from using any other much more harmful drug.

smoke is harmfull for our health, i think if anyone wants to smoking it must go to a smoking area, so another people that not smoking will not effected

Propaganda... You only think it makes the mopment perfect cause thats hat you "learned" somewhere...

As for the whole question, I find it's hard to draw a line which drugs should be allowed (currently alcohol, tobacco etc) and which should be forbidden, but i think it's a step in the right direction to at least limit the spaces where to use them, like not bein allowed to smoke in restaurants etc...
As for completly forbidding to smoke, sure, it is addictive and increases the danger of lung cancer, but I don't think it's severe enough to even forbid it in your own home...
And facing the facts, smokers bring a lot of money to the state by paying taxes for their cigarettes... at least here in germany...
(I hope i did not repeat to many arguments already posted)
