Smoking public places - about the ban

Ban smoking in public places

Smoking in public places

Are you for or against a ban on smoking in public places? Have you tried to quit smoking or are you affected by passive smoking? Do you agree that smoking kills or do you think you should have a right to smoke if you want to?

It is all in the mind, you can smoke 25 cigarettes a day and yet live to t...moreSuperBambinoCattivo
13-5-2008To SuperBambinoCattivo, This Concerned Father here, is also the husband to a very concerned wife, who declines to support the act of smoking.
