    First and foremost, people have the right to slowly kill themselves with cigarettes as long as it isn’t harming innocent bystanders.

    That’s the thing with smoking though, second hand smoke is a big problem, especially for vulnerable people

        You may not know it because you’re a smoker (smokers’ noses are completely and irreparably fucked), but normal people can tell a cigarette was lit in a 10 meter radius, even on a windy day.

        I’m surprised they can still walk around outside, when there are literally cars everywhere. Those are killing way more people on ‘second hand’ exposure than tobacco.
