So why should u have a right to make my life difficult?? As my nephew is a bad asthmatic, being near smoke can set him off in an attack - so hes forced to stay away from smokers WHICH IS F*CKING EVERYWHERE
Your making my nephews life harder...yet u moan about ur own free will and right to do what u like? what happened to non-smokers being able to do what THEY like?? clearly you are only thinking of urself, classic selfish behaviour from a smoker.
I bet when u get lung cancer, u will be wanting all the sympathy - poor me blah blah people get cancer everyday from no fault of there own, sometimes its caused by other peoples smoke - now thats unfair!
people can get cancer in any part of their body for any reason it doesnt have to be to do with smoking. i suggest you read a medical journal or something before you spout any more tripe.
care to explain the cancer deaths in my family over the years of the non smokers compared with the smokers who are still alive and kicking and havent inhaled the secondary smoke you so wish to bleat about.There's someone in my head, but it's not me0 -

that doesnt even make sense! i just said its hard enough going on city/town streets because its unlevel, there are bits too narrow, too steep etc etc without having to constantly cross the road or get away from smoke!!! There is only lower parts of the kirb I can cross at, at certain parts - I cant bump down at any old bit. why doesnt the smoker have consideration for me as a person in a wheelchair and cross the road so as not to inconvenience me for there dirty habits? or why not just stick to smoking in smoking areas or there home?
Why doesnt some smokers walk to the other side away from kids? cos they dont care.......fVck the healthy peopleYes im disabled....yes I can do things you cant....but you can do things I cant so were equal!0 -

re-read what I wrote....put your specs on this time
I was saying some people get cancer out of no fault of there own......now thats a shame.Yes im disabled....yes I can do things you cant....but you can do things I cant so were equal!0 -
YOU are the one choosing to smoke. YOU are the one making your life difficult by choosing to do so, not me. Im not forcing YOU to smoke.
And as for taking the !!!! out of disabled.....er dont just assume everyone can walk around running away from smokers, some people do have birth defects and disabilities you know, and yes they can use computers and type.
And why should us non-smoker run away from anyone smoking in order to look after our health??? its not us causing the pollution, so why are we to be inconvenienced?
oh here we go, the whole disability sob story.......la la la im not listening....as i said i am disabled, you dont know how yet you already assume im not as bad as you. how about i tell you i have no legs. would that suffice? or perhaps no0 arms and use my feet to smoke with? or actually i have no arms and no legs. and i get some0ne else to hold my fag for me.
my disability is none of your business but it involves mobility problems.
im not taking the !!!! there. i just doint like the old sob story disability card being played, it gets played as much as the racist card these days for no good reason.
and yes i am making MY LIFE DIFFICULT. my life. not yours. so get your nose out of my business and leave me alone to do what i wish.There's someone in my head, but it's not me0 -

tonight i have come to the conclusion that some people are so sad they just wont let up on things that dont !!!!ing concern them. i smoke. you dont. i dont blow smoke in your face same as you wouldnt dar5e come and shout in my face in the street.
LIVE AND LET LIVE
and for !!!!s sakes stop moaning about it. cant be doing your health much good, probably worse than that itty bit of smoke you may or may not have inhaled.
why not hold your breath as you pass?
simples.There's someone in my head, but it's not me0 -

Are you even reading whats being written?? or have u had a nicotine overdose?!?! when did i once assume ur disability was worse than mine, what age do u think I am? 12? and by your lalala comment, im guessing u are....so whos buying ur fags?
Your comments arnt even valid, totally pointless tbh...
clearly u cant make sense of anyones posts and reply in a manner good enough for a decent debate.....
you ARE making my life difficult.
Public places, are just that. PUBLIC. for everyone to share and enjoy, so why should it just be a free world for smokers? Why cant non-smokers enjoy public places too? Why cant non-smokers enjoy the freedom smokers do? U dont see smokers crossing the street to make our lives easier....its unfair and you know it really.Yes im disabled....yes I can do things you cant....but you can do things I cant so were equal!0 -
INFACT WHY DONT WE ALL AGREE TO DISAGREE? WE LIKE IT, WE STILL HAVE OUR RIGHTS, YOU DONT LIKE IT AND ITS TOUGH. YOU HAVE A PROBLEM THEN LOBBY YOUR LOCAL mp. AND IN THE MEANTIME AGREE TO DISAGREE AND STOP PLAYING CARDS AND SOB STORIES AND AT BEING DOCTORS.
AGREE TO DISAGREE AND STOP WITH THE INSULTS.
IM GAME. AM OFF FOR A FAG AND WILL RETURN TOMORROW AFTER POLLUTING THE SKIES WITH A FEW MORE.
APOLOGIES FOR SHOUTING IM NOT TYPING THIS ALL AGAIN IN SMALL TYPE.
you do what you want and go and moan to all and sundry and get nowhere and ill carry on my own way.....of course i would observe any further smoking bans but i doint think youll get anywhere than you already have TBH so you may as well accept it and live with it.
simples. solution. end of stupid debate.There's someone in my head, but it's not me0 -
dandare, are you marleyboy? No offence (if you arn't), but you've got the same reply/quote style. Sorry.
nope dunno who that is.
But I'm suggesting that it is illegal. I can't actually see how it isn't. I can see that prosecution may not be deemed "in the public interest", though I'd argue that one, too.
cash probably.
In your oppinion, as someone who is the butt of their disgruntlement. If they were extreme in their support of you, would they still be ar**holes?
absolutely if they felt that strongly that people should be lined up for it.
In my oppinion, they are. They are people who's views I respect (though disagree with).
and yer entitled to it
I disagree. I move, sir, that the majority of smokers on here want things their own way irrespective of others, whereas the majority of non-smokers want to live-and-let-live, which includes being allowed to live. The evidence is here. It's been repeated ad nauseum.
hmm both are at opposite ends. some want to smoke, others are happy to let them smoke but only under the non smokers conditions. to say, by default that smokers don't want to live and let live? hmm na
Because I have the choice to not live with a smoker. Children and dependents of smokers don't have that choice. would ye leave yer partner if ye have one if they started smoking based on that single choice?
Then that's a shame. A very selfish shame.
we all do things that others would class as wrong but we'll find our own justification for carrying on doing so. there are far more pressing things that need attention the fags.
we will all die just try to make the in between bit good for yerself and others around ye. if ye feel that means no smoking do so but forcing others to comply will always get they're back up.0 -
did it again. this time it was the herb0
