There is a certain arrogance that comes with smoking anyway, how many times
have I been walking behind someone opening a fresh packet only to see the
plastic and the foil tossed to the wind in one well practice
movement...pull plastic opening strip, unwrap,pop lid,pul foil,toss to
ground. Why is it that more people aren't fined for dropping butts on the
ground in public areas? I'd love to be able to give out a �50 fines I
really would.
But then mindlessness comes with the territory, you are talking about
people who despite the overwhelming evidence of the dangers in even short
term smoking and their own knwledge that they really shouldn't be doing it,
still smoke. I know it's an addiction but there is massive support and
numerous ways for people to be able to stop.

Smoking akin to me sitting near strangers and farting for 4-5 minutes while
they suffer or move. Difference is, my fart won't still be in their hair
and clothes the next morning.
