Personally I wish smoking were outlawed completely for a number of reasons (and these are just some of them).
Let's not fool ourselves people ... this isn't a question of rights, it's an issue of addiction, exploitation, stupidity, filth and how to kill yourself painfully and not look cool doing it.

- You often get pressured into doing it by peers.
- It's fucking expensive ... try giving up for a period and then realise what you can buy with it!
- It is a burden on the the health service (yes I know it generates taxes but does that money really go to the health service?)
- It's extremely painful for the affected and distressing for friends and relatives to see people they know dying of related illnesses (my father died of lung cancer and he did so in a fairly horrifying manner).
- It's a complete bastard to give up ... even though I've "given up" for nearly 5 years I still sneak the occasional freeman's OP.
- It's dirty ... I so love the fact that I come back from the pub and none of my clothes smell of the shit other people want to indulge in.
- It's ugly ... it stains your skin, your teeth, it ages you prematurely.
- You taste like a fucking ash tray.
