That will not effect the people around us. 3 out of 4 people that die are smokers, and one is not should be enough. Killing people just for walking down the street.

I know a 15 year old kid who can't run 180' (home plate to second base from when we play baseball) because he's having breathing problems because his parents are heavy smokers and light up about a pack a day EACH. I go to his house and I'm in tears because there is so much smoke in the air. Is that fair to him? He could potentially lose his life early because his parents get some sort of pleasure from smoking?
