In response to Anisha Patel's 'xxxxNishaxxxx' blog at http://xxxxnishaxxxx.blogspot.com/2008/02/smoking-is-such-big-topic-for-everyone.html (from http://xxxxnishaxxxx.blogspot.com/).

I agree. I think smoking is an individual’s choice and people are usually aware of the effects in can have. However most of my smoking mates say things like “the government have taken away our rights as a smoker by banning it in public places. We should be allowed to smoke where we want”. I don’t think smoking is a fundamental human right. Isn’t it the non-smokers right to be able to breathe clean air in public places and not to have to breathe in other’s smoke? For example, if I choose to damage my health by eating junk food, I don’t force it on anyone else!
