Smoking can be one of the worst things to do, and most of you know that. i reckon they should ban it where people usualy are, like resteraunts and pubs.
it could help a bit with the global warming and make the air healthier. plus you are more likely to perish smoking than any other way. its like commiting suicide!

No, if they wanted to do that, they'd say "smoking is illegal from now on". But they're not doing that. The current plans are to outlaw smoking in enclosed public spaces. Noone much minds it being done outside, because it isn't just moved around and added to - it goes away. Indoors is a different matter: it stays, it gets added to constantly, it spreads out a bit but never dies down. This is extremely bad for people's health - especially since there are potentially (and often) non-smokers there. Don't believe the media (read: the CWD) hype that smoking will be a crime entirely: there'll just be alot more "no smoking" signs about.

I hate it! I can't wait 'til the outlaw the whole thing. Mostly because smokers havn't got the common curtesy to respect non-smokers. I hate when I go to the Mall now and all the smokers are right by the door, even though they're supposed to be 16 feet away! I wouldn't have spend money on allergy meds if they were more respectful.

Every where smoking bans have been introduced in bars or restaurants the number of customers goes down for a short while then the numbers go up to a higher figure. People don’t like change but a few years from now everyone will accept the new normal.
Smoking on planes is another example. People have been banned from smoking for years yet despite a nervous 12 hour flight people in general accept the situation and the reason for fines if they break the law. The bottom line is more people fly now with smoking bans than before. There are more people who hate cigs and their stench than those that smoke
