Re: smoking and the pub
FFS No wonder this place gets people irate,
I suggest you ALL re read my post, not once did i say smoking was not bad for you.
Not once did I say it was perfectly OK to smoke.
Not once did I say I was pro smoking.
Yet you all jumped ot the same conclusion.
I simply stated that a ban on smoking will make little difference to the incidents and deaths from childhood asthma. Mainly because the ban will be in the pub and in public buildings, not spaces. Pretty much like Dublin, where you see hundreds of people smoking in the street, I doubt it has encouraged many people to give up, it simply makes them smoke outside making the buildings and surrounding street look awfull.
Actually read what I said, It was neither pro smoking nor anti smoking, my post was about the what if's the fact that smoking kills, when in reality it should be smoking MAY kill, smoking MAY cause cancer, smoking MAY damage your unborn baby.
I never once said the childs death wasnt due to smoking, I simply pointed out that smoking MAY not have been the contributing factor and someone elses hatred of smoking is not an unbiased oppinion make.
Whilst we all still drive our cars, whilst we all still depend upon industry belching out tons and tons of carbon and god only knows what else into our atmosphere, I am going to class each and every one of you hypocrites.
What do I class myself as? Well as I dont give smokers a hard time, whilst I smoke yet dont around children and try to avoid crowded places when doing so, I certainly wont class myself as a hypocrite.
Maybe I should go round goving non smokers a hardtime, see how they like it.
Perhaps its time to campaign so vigourously against smack heads and all other junkie ****, perhaps we should ban alcohol cos its addictive and causes health problems, where the **** are we going to stop????
