i hate walking down the street and seeing people smoke. Its basicly killing yourself and killing the people and frankly..it smells really bad. Why must smokers make it a public thing to do that?

Exactly!! But as far as i've seen, they feel it to be a matter of prestige for them!! They feel that smoking will enhance their personality!! whenever i see such smokers i get angry on their family only!! had their parents been a bit more cautious, careful and strict( where ever necessary) they wud not hav gone into it!! "SMOKING IS INJURIOUS TO HEALTH" Please atleast those who read tis try to propagate tis!!!

Even if u r a chain smoker, there r ways u can QUIT it!! A proper counselling and a mild treatment(if reqd.) is sufficient.!! wat is mainly reqd is the self-confidence and will power of the concerned person to quit it!! TIS TIP IS APPLICABLE FOR ALL THE BAD, UNHEALTHY HABITS!!!

Nice discussion beano.I am a smoker too but really I do not want to smoke when I am walking it is nasty.But the other smoker,who smoke on the street,I think they just want to show us that they are proud with doing it.What do you think?
