Smoking Bans

Look. I don’t smoke and neither should you. It’s bad for you. But that’s besides the point. People do smoke cigarettes. Many people. It’s a fact of life.

Now, if the government wants you to not do something, they make it illegal. The latest thing to become illegal is the fact that individuals cannot smoke on public patios. If caught, they may be liable to some fines. The rule is that they have to stay like 5 or so meters away from the specified area. Which is totally ridiculous in my opinion.

Here in Vancouver though, we have these safe injection sites for all the homeless drug addicts to have a nice warm sterile environment to inject themselves with heroin away from the cold and diseases.

Friends of mine have been talking about going to the safe injection sites and smoking cigars there because they don’t have proper places to smoke. I think they should.

Why do people who continuously do not and will not contribute to society always have more rights then your average smoking person?

Is that fair for us hard working, tax paying citizens?

If you wanna kill yourself with cigarettes, I think you should have the right to do so wherever and whenever you want. Die from lung cancer, help keep the world population down, therefore contributing to saving the environment.

Second hand smoke isn’t pleasant to be around, but neither is fascism.
