Smoking, Not Smoking

In spite of the fact that I believe smoking kills in horrible and inventive ways, I am nonetheless defending it in a school group project. While I don’t believe that smokers should be alienated or looked down upon, but most smokers are inconsiderate toward non-smokers. There is a certain etiquette about smoking — where you blow the smoke, when you don’t smoke, asking before you do — that is simply ignored. In the face of this, the rallying cry of, “We’re being discriminated against!” is less impressive. The flagrancy of many smokers toward non-smokers as-is borders on the profane.

Not all smokers. Just a lot of them.

Still, I fully support the smokers’ rights to smoke.
