Recent studies have shown that passive smoking is as dangerous if not more, than active smoking.
My question is, active smokers claim they have right to smoke. But we, passive smokers, have the right not to inhale the harmful chemicals, isn't it? So how to deal with this?

fisrt we have to stope smokers from smoking and let them know the benefits they could get from stopping smoking. A\ benefit of quitting smoking will also save the money, which you were burning to destroy your health. Nicotine will show its effects in the initial phases of quitting smoking. It would be almost impossible to handle this temptation of nicotine

...difficult to explain;) well we can Avoid smokers as much as possible. When walking in the path of people that have designated smoking areas in front of buildings cross over or detour around them.
or
just Walk away Ask them if they would not smoke indoors Make friends with people that don't smoke Ask your smoking friends to try to quit
or
stop breathing !! ;)...

I believe the laws that are being put in place is protecting all the people from second hand smoke. I am a smoker but I have respect for other people. I don't smoke in my house or around any non smoker which my husband is. I believe I have the right to smoke but I don't have the right to harm anybody else because of my bad habit. Although I am the minority I agree with the laws being put in place. They are to protect our children and non smokers rights. Since to many of us smokers have neglected those rights.
