I quit smoking about 8 months ago.
While I'm not one of those former smokers like Fotzlid, I do agree that cigarettes have absolutely no redeeming qualities. I mean, hell, even a gun can save a life.
If we want to ban smoking, we need to find ways to show current smokers how much the quality of their life will improve when they quit. It doesn't happen by insulting them and telling them they're obnoxious or smell. The idea that shaming them will somehow get them to quit is a bit odd to me.
So, dd3953, I understand where you're coming from, but trust me, it's so much better to be smoke-free. It's hard, but it's absolutely worth it.
