This is so right on. Am I really to believe that burning part of a tobacco leaf outdoors is worse than hundreds of thousands of people burning litres of gasoline?
The amount of material and smoke produced from a cigarette is so comparably minimal its ridiculous. Just because you can't see or smell exhaust to the same extent of cigarette smoke does not make it any better for you.
I supported the ban in bars, due to the restaurant staff being constantly exposed. Other regulations have become nothing but a violation of people's civil liberties.
