I understand lung cancer is the number killer in Singapore follow by colon cancer

Colon cancer is caused by talking through the arsehole instead of the mouth. It will soon overtake lung cancer as the number one killer.

just because your kid cough you blame it on All smokers?
perhaps at that time while walking pass the smoker your kid had an itchy throat?
and if you see the smoker and that you know your kid is sensitive to smoke, why did you not siam the smoker a bit?

Your kid needs to toughen up, you can not always shelter them from the real world. As for smoker, they are responsible for their own health, no need your fake compassion.

Smokers vs Non Smokers.... Each have is grievances.
Smokers lament lack of space to smoke.
Non smokers complained about 2nd hand smoke

When will the bickerings end?

Agree. Most Smokers are very inconsiderate and deserve whatever illness they get. They should all lock themselves in a room without any exhaust and smoke themselves to heaven or hell.

The key lies in educating smokers and creation of MORE smoking zones.

All smokers will end up in hell so better stop smoking

Jesus smoked weed and went to heaven so why the discrimination against the rest of mankind?

Smoking is not permitted in most (if not all a//c) malls and many other public places. This activity is a thing of the past and is allowed only because it is still a personal choice (besides the high taxes collected). It is no longer fashionable or "in" to smoke. Compared to when I started working in the mid-eighties, it was then socially acceptable to offer ciggies when one lights up, today, smokers need to excuse themselves if they wish to light. They are fewer nowadays and unless they are from PRC, most do not smoke, preferring sports and other health related activities to smoking.

There is no need to show compassion to smokers, if fact in most developed societies, they are despised. But unless society develops to a point where a non-smoker has the nerve to go up to a smoker and tell him/her to stuff it out, it will still be considered as an activity of individual choice and everyone has the right to light up in a non-designated area. Still need to bear with it.

Cheers!

adding on, i bought myself a portable ashtray recently, keychain type.

i am quite sure the NEA Litter summon team will be on the ball again, after seeing so many ministers asking sinkies to keep the environment clean.

:eek: scary...

Live and let live is the best way to go. Just move away from the smokers if their smoke bothers you.
