I agree on that. I have to walk through this bunched up cloud of smoke infront of my school each morning and each evening. Recently I nearly broke down in sports - my lungs are taking some damage, here, it'd be naive to say it has nothing to do with the pollution those guys create.
And the school refuses to do anything, too, which is another thing that gets me ticked if I think about it too much.
I don't
care if people smoke, let them kill themselves, but I find it indescribably rude if they insist on smoking in public places like that! If I didn't hold my breath each morning walking through those 10 meters of crowd, I think I'd have died of lung cancer by now. *fumes* (pun intended)
I've met pretty considerate smokers. With smoking, it's like with having mobile phones. A lot of idiots will yell their conversations and use their mobile as if it were the top priority, nay? The polite people will wait till they are actually outside the public place and/or only give their number to people who actually
need it, for emergencies, and turn down their ringtone volume... blabla. The smokers here don't give a shit if they tear you into an early death (much worse than w/ the mobile phone problem), except for two or three individuals that I know of that will wait till they know they are not bothering anyone at all to smoke...
*ends the rant*
