I was referring to an alcohol fix, still its a very potent and powerfull drug that wrecks lives of those around it.

If you want to commit suicide by playing Russian Roulette, that's your business and your choice. If you want to do it by using a hand-grenade in a crowded room, that is *not* simply "your business"!

Never thought of using a handgrenade as a comparison to a cigarette, i'd imagine the odds of sustaining a fatal injury from, a few pound of explosive contained in a steel shell designed to fragment would be considerably higher than passive smoking.
Still as I admitted passive smoking is a problem and I dont have the answers on how to prevent it.

Do you have any *proof* of this? Or is it just an opinion??

Based on what happened at my local, something as little as stopping smoking at the bar, seemed to empty the place I'd guestimate that little rule drove people to the other pubs around that allowed smoking at the bar, to about 30% of the locals in the pub.
