If you have 100 smokers in a small room you might have a potential hazard but a whiff of smoke on a park bench never hurt anyone. Wow. You should send your results to the Mayo Clinic. I'm sure they'd be interested in reviewing them. http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/sec...-smoke/CC00023 Long on opinion short on facts. And, in your case, not a medical professional. I think I'll go with the people who actually have a degree and some expertise in the subject. Feel free to take deep breaths. Short on facts, no matter who they are. Really? Show us the research to support the claim that second hand smoke is safe. Any discussion of airborne poisons that doesn't talk about threshold limit values (an OSHA standard) is just conjecture. There may be a dangerous concentration of second hand smoke but simply being able to smell it (the current standard) is bull****. According to you. According to OSHA and they are the ones who actually regulate these things. OSHA doesn't make any claim about the beneficial or benign effects of second hand smoke. Feel free to show otherwise. I don't really smoke (maybe 6 cigars a year) but I don't think the current persecution is warranted. That is particularly true when the person has the ability not to go where people smoke and chooses to just so they can be offended. I think they should be able to put up a sign that says "this is a smoking establishment, if you don't like it, get even with me and spend your money somewhere else." You might want to cut out the cigars. It doesn't take much from something like that to cause all sorts of health problems. So is red meat and driving a car. I will chose my risks, you chose yours. That is what freedom means. Yes, so is red meat and driving. I have no problem with you smoking your cigars in your home and driving, up to the point where you risk my health or safety. Your "freedom" ends as soon as it impacts mine. D'Plume, you are terminally 'impacted' |
