I'm not sure what the issue is with North Americans having "their knickers in a twist."
It's a proven health issue, even if the smoke is inhaled second-hand. I'd say it's more of a responsibility for smokers in general: if you want to smoke, I won't judge, but please respect me in turn and understand that you may be near people who would like not to be getting the smoke second-hand.
Again, not sure what the issue is.
- sehr 11y agoCoffee & cigarettes go hand in hand in some places, just a cultural difference they might miss here in NA
- johnmaguire2013 11y agoThey're both stimulants, of course they go hand in hand! ;)
- johnmaguire2013 11y agoWhile I totally agree with you, and try to avoid imposing on others with my vaping (albeit less harmful than cigarettes, people don't like the smell, the clouds, the scare, etc.) I think that the damage caused by secondhand smoke outdoors is probably negligible. It's not lingering in the air the same way it does indoors.
- jacalata 11y agoIt doesn't have to linger if it's blowing towards me, either by wind or your actions - it's still getting in my hair and clothes and food and making them all stink. I totally can't understand anyone simultaneously saying that European cafes are better because (a) better tasting coffee and (b) more smoke around. If you're smoking while you drink your coffee then you're ruining the flavour anyway.
