smoke in public places

Should it be legal to smoke around others in public places where there are no smokers? Smoker today think that they can just light up wherever they feel. No smokers feel that smoking should be band from all public places. Can not smokers see that they are just harming themselves and the ones around them? Smokers often think they can not live without that cigarette, but in reality they can not live if they do smoke. Who gave them the right to sign my death warrant by smoking in public places and ruining the air I breathe is that fair?. I can not understand it when I go somewhere to eat and all I can smell is smoke from cigarettes. Nothing bothers me more then when I am waiting for something and a smoker put behind me and just throw me his cigarrete air and my cloths adquire this disgusting odor. This is not fair to the person that is a no smoker. This is why smokers should not be able to smoke around no smokers. We all know, smokers and no smokers alike, that cigarettes cause all types of illnes: Cancer, Asthma, etc. Doctors are making new discoveries everyday on the harms of smoking. cancer being raked among one of highest side affects of smoking, but yet people continue to smoke cigarettes. I don't understand why people would continue to smoke knowing the consequences of smoking. On the other hand smokers feel that they need cigarettes to make it through the day. I would think anyone who continues to smoke is asking for a quick ticket to death. Knowing all what we know about smoking today you would have to be a fool to continue to smoke. remember if u are a smoker is not only ur problem is our problem because u are contamine the air that we breath.
