Default Smoking

Considering how addictive and harmful they are, not only to the user but to everyone around them, and how much damage discarded stubs do to the environment and water threshold, should cigarettes still be legal? Should it simply be a matter of personal choice, that people should decide for themselves whether or not they want to smoke, or does the highly addictive nature of cigarettes override that very freedom? Is it worth all of the forest fires and house fires that have been caused by dropped stubs? Is vaping better than using traditional cigarettes?

To be honest, I'm very anti-smoking. It killed my grandfather and probably affected the health of other loved ones, including my mother.

Still, it does seem kind of hypocritical to allow cigarettes and alcohol yet make cannabis illegal. Guess they haven't figured out how to make money off marijuana yet.

Should be legal, not indoors though.

And vaping is better yes.

Let people commit slow motion suicide.
