Generally, I am against more legislation on anything. Nevertheless, I see the many abuses by smokers, and I can't help but think that something needs to be done. In many places smokers can smoke only so close to a doorway. They ignore that distance and you have to fight your way through the smokers and the smoke. It seems like every smoker will take a deep puff on their cigarette and holding their breath before coming back inside, there they exhale the smoke in my good clean air. Of course they threw their butts on the floor or in the urinal, anywhere but the trash. How many fires have been attributed to smokers? Recently, in my CDL school we had to police ourselves on the range each day. We were told to pick up the cigarette butts off the ground. I told them I wouldn't. A study needs to be completed on smoker's pollution. I bet the results would get the greens up in arms. How much of the cost of health care is passed on to the nonsmokers? Smokers have proven time and again they can't control themselves so it is up to others the get them to clean up their act.
