Default Do you know anyone who's died from second hand smoke?

I don't. My grandmother has smoked a pack of cigarettes a day since she was sixteen, and my grandfather hasn't had a cigarette in 40 years. Somehow, he has managed to survive well into his seventies.

I should say that I am not a smoker. I did smoke in high school, but it really does nothing for me. It doesn't smell great, obviously. But I walk anywhere on campus and I see 'no smoking within 10 meters of the doors' signs, and now it seems we can't smoke on the deck of the campus pub. Who exactly is being protected by this? If you don't want the bar smelling like smoke, I get it. No smoking within six feet or something.

Why on earth does someone have to walk halfway to the fricking pitchers mound to have a cigarette? Does anybody buy this second hand smoke myth anymore? God forbid you light up a Craven Ultra Mild within a hundred yards of a school, but nobody would say anything if a fat teacher brought a Wendy's classic triple back from lunch...

I don't have much of a point to this other than this: next time someone warns you about second hand smoke, call them a mean name and ask if they use a leafblower.
