What are Thoughts on Smoking?

It's just something people do. I don't, I don't want to waste the money and I agree it's harmful BUT, if you don't like something don't do it, I don't like to smoke and I wont tell anyone to or not to

I'm in total agreement with you. Its a nasty disgusting habit that cost alot of money to eventually end up killing you or your loved ones. I can truly understand people who started decades ago when they didn't know the harm but come on now. Why would a teenager or young adult start smoking knowing the harm that it could cause. I don't understand that at all. I also can't stand the smell plus I'm allergic to it.

I am a smoker, and i have been for many years. and their are many of us that do it. Just like everything else it should be left up to the individual adult to make up their own minds to smoke or not.

In our city, our mayor made an anti-smoking ordinance which prohibits people from smoking in public. So if you come here in our place, you seldom see people smoke anywhere they want, unless it's a smoking area. Our mayor was credited for that way back when it was implemented. Personally, I smoke occasionally, especially when we're on a drinking spree with friends.I don't find it a big deal when you smoke once in a while. A chain smoker or a heavy smoker is another thing though..

i am a hard smoker. iam 25 y old.. i tried to stop but.. still not work.. maybe i need some medical help to make me stop me from this poison .. any suggest please ?

I don't really understand why people spend some money just to harm themselves, others, and polluting the environment. And I really hate smokers who doesn't have any discipline, smokers who smoke in public transportation or public places where non-smokers could inhale it. I don't really know what satisfaction they for smoking but I hope they'll realize that there are more consequences than pros in smoking.

I think it is a personal choice where to smoke or not and many places have already banned smoking. What upsets me though, is people are using it as an excuse to why other dangerous substances should be legalized. I think none of these things that are harmful to our body should be ever legal to take but I can't see the president setting law to ban it. I just don't think it would happen.

I am a smoker now for about 40 years and i will be a smoker for the next 40 years. It should not be made illegal any more than drinking, or drinking soda, or eating fast food.

I've smoked a couple of times (under the influence of bad friends), but i've quit ever since. Looking at people smoking now, I can't believe i was one of them. It smells, and poses a dangerous health hazard to others.
