Ditto.....
I am not that far up my own a*se that I think that non-smokers have a god given right to have all pubs made smoke free
but I do wish that smokers scrupulously observed no smoking areas when they are in them.
I also wish that smokers would acknowledge that their habit actively bars us non-smokers from entering places that we ideally should be able to go into without being affected by someone elses antisocial actions there.
Finally, smokers shouldn't complain about non smokers complaining.....after all, it's not us non-smokers who are actively doing the thing that harms. It's a bit like muggers complaining that their victims are complaining about being mugged.......and using the excuse that the victims shouldn't actually go to the places where the muggers hang out!
