No, it wasn't a cheap shot. Obesity kills. Obesity is afflicted on to people by others (parents to children through bad diet and lifestyle usually). This needs tackling too. Or do you enjoy the odd convenience meal/fish supper, so that's OK and you don't mind?

As said above, those factors have an impact on our lifestyles, but so what? It's not relevant to this debate, it doesn't take away from the danger of smoking and above all, we cannot address them all in one fell swoop.

The whole point of this thread is to address whether or not people should be allowed to smoke in enclosed public places, because of the effects of passive smoking. Issues such as obesity and stress do not directly affect the health of others.
See my reply to Chris. I can't be **** to reply to you anymore.
