CVS To Stop Selling Tobacco Products At Its 7600 Stores

[JohnyMac]

Naaa brat just trying to poo poo the second hand smoke argument. I was striving to point out that a lot of things we all do could be thought of as second hand smoke.

OK, if I am in a tavern on a Friday night were smoking is allowed, I do believe in second hand smoke. Cough...Cough. However, I make that choice.

But sitting in a house where someone is smoking I do not think second hand smoke is a serious issue.

Yep, all about the individual. My choice to, your choice to not have to be around it. We NEVER smoked around our friends or others without asking if they minded, nor smoked in public places unless they had an area, nor in our own truck if others were riding, especially kids. Just common courtesy and sense, which ain't too common anymore.

Rah45, do you grill using charcoal? You know where I might be going with this...

Periodically, yes. However, I choose to do it for myself, no one is doing it near me. I also stand away from the grill unless I'm inspecting or manipulating the food.

I might enjoy a cigar one day, and that also is my choice, but that doesn't mean I like others putting that second hand smoke in my air space without consulting me first. I have friends who smoke...I request that, while smoking, they move downwind and keep a yard or so of distance between us while we socialize, and as long as they do I am fine.

I hear ya' Rah45 and agree.

If truth be told smoking doesn't bother me much unless I find myself in that above mentioned tavern on a Friday night.
