Do you have first hand knowledge of this? I've known people who have done blow and as far as I know, haven't done it again.

Have one cigarette and you probably won't even give it a second thought. At no point did I argue that smoking doesn't cause cancer and kill you. But it doesn't typically lead to selling your house, becoming a prostitute, selling your child into slavery, violent crime, long jail terms, losing your job. Have you seen those meth addict memes? Hard drugs and nicotine are simply not comparable.

The effects on your body != how addictive it is. Drug addicts also can't just stand out by the door to indulge in their addiction with others. Nor can they just buy it at the local corner store.

Meth, coke and heroin are about 1000x worse than smoking.

I disagree. At least cokeheads and heroin users don't bother others with secondhand smoke.
