Smoking in public


One thing that I really hate is inhaling other people’s stale cigarette smoke against my will. It's about time to ban smoking in public places in the world and stamp smoking out once and for all
.
I am aware that in this days and age, smoking becomes common things for the people. They always smoke without concern about the surroundings. Some people thought smoking can liberate their tension and can relax their mind, but the nonsmokers should have the opportunity to breath without a cloud of cigarette smoke around us.

As we all know Smoking in public places remains an important issue nowadays. Some people think it should be banned in hospitals, restaurants, government offices, buses, subways, train stations cinemas, and other public places but it would be a discrimination for those who smoke, this could sound contradictory but they also have rights, and they are humans also, and they should be treated with respect because they are not monsters, they only have bad habits and vices that anyone can have for several reasons.

It is well known that smoking can be harmful for the organism especially the lungs and the heart, but the problem is that being a nonsmoker can be harmful also, because we are always breathing impurities such as the cigarette smoke and we become into a second hand smoker, and we also have a high risk to reach a lung cancer or a heart attack, we have the same probabilities as a really smoker have.

I was a smoker a long time ago that’s why I can write in both parts, as a smoker and as a non-smoker. So previously I talked as a non-smoker now as the smoker that I was. It was very uncomfortable that the non-smoker people controls our cigarettes and our way of smoking telling us that we couldn’t smoke in public places and that we must respect nonsmokers. That was very annoying because there weren’t anything better than smoke a cigarette in peace and tranquility without a non-smoker telling us the things that we should do.
I am writing in both bands because I want people to learn and see that it is uncomfortable that someone smoke near us but it is also uncomfortable that someone says the smokers to stop smoking. We must be tolerant with each other, that’s why there is violence in the world because we are always annoyed with the other people acts
