The difference between cigarettes and alchohol is that you can drink as much as you like and it won't affect anyone else {(unless you drive home after of course) or are a "fighting drunk"}.

If you smoke, whether they like it or not, you are poisoning everyone else around you with your chemicals.
I am in favour of a complete ban on smoking in public places (including bars, restaurants and cafes), like there is in most work places in the UK.

As a body builder and fitness type guy, I don't see why, just by choosing to go to a bar or club, I should be subjected to the chemicals that those whos choice is to poison themsleves choose to inflict on themselves.

Oh yes, and I've got a little girl of 18 months, if anyone smokes near her out somewhere, I find a menacing glare does the trick.
