F... Smokers Driving in Front of You

I smoked for at least 10+ years, but quit 2 years ago. I think that smokers should be able to smoke outside or in their cars ONLY if they extinguish and then throw away the butts.

You can smell the smoke from a cigarette from the car in front of you? I guess you guys dont have smog...
We( people in So.Cal) cant smell a diesal fueled semi driving by, hell, half the time the smog is so thick, we cant even see it!

But yeah, F... the drivers that toss out lit butts. 10's of thousands of acres are burned down because of that shit every year. We have a brush fire season :( .

Dude, when I was out in San Diego a few months ago, that shit was THICK.

The way I see it, if they have the right to smoke in ANY area in which I HAVE TO breath, then I have the right to cough unnecessarily loud at them or say something to them. Want to smoke? Fine, do it in a way that doesn't bother me. If not, don't get pissed when I call you rude.

This sums up my feelings on smoking pretty well.

I recognize that smokers should have the freedom to smoke in open air places where non-smokers are able to get away from it. But I also reserve the right to be disgusted at smokers, no matter where they are smoking, because it's just flat out gross. There are no laws governing social derision.

In California there pretty strict about cig butts. If you throw your butt out the window and a cop sees you. 95% of the time your going to get a littering ticket. And not only do you pay a fine. You spend a weekend wearing an orange jacket picking up trash on the freeway.
You can't even smoke on most of the beaches now. Forget about inside a bar or restaurant. That's a big no no. And it has been for about 10 yrs.
It's really not that big of a deal. If you want to.Just go out front and smoke.
It's fun when my friends and I go back east they all trip out that you can still smoke in restraunts and bars. It just doesn't feel right to them anymore.
Just wait the laws will work there way back east.
But then again Virgina grows there share of tabbacco. So you guys might be screwd for a while.:Smoker:

Philly has tried passing the no smoking in bars and restaurant ordinance fairly recently, but it continuously gets shot down by the Mayor because he doesn't like the councilman that proposes the ordinance because of a completely unrelated matter. So, they've smartened up a little. Now a different concilmember is going to propose the same exact ordinance and everyone expects that the Mayor will not veto it. I wish I was kidding, but that's seriously how this city operates. I truly believe Philadelphia is the poorest run city in the entire United States.

Street is a retarded, corrupt douchebag. Hate him so much.

I tried my best to help out with the Katz campaign. At one point I had over 20 angry "Street supporters" surrounding me and two of my colleagues, yelling at me and spitting on me. Not pretty. This last election was no election, it was a street fight. Cops got there in time to do nothing.

Here in Austin, TX you can't smoke in a restaurant within the city limits. I think that is becoming the norm in most places.

F...those cig throwing bitches!

you guys hit a nerve with me.those lazy smokers who continue to throw their cigs out the window drives me nuts.hey,in my book if you want to kill your self go right ahead,but unlike a dog in heat,no need to mark your territory with butts every place you have been
