banned smoking in california

Smoking

I love and enjoy living in california. I also love being outside playing soccer with friends or just hanging out but the thing I hate most is smoking, I can't handle it because I have Asthma and every time I even pass someone smoking a ciggerrte the next day I can hardly get up because i'm so sick. I mean don't they that smoking can kill you and the person next to you. I wish they would just banned it. It's not fair to the people who want to live. srry if that sounds harsh.


Public Places

I have noticed that many cities are starting to ban smoking in public places. I know Calabasas, one of the more wealthy cities of Los Angeles has done it, and it is so much more pleasant. Especially when there are kids around. I just wish more places would enforce the decision.

Oh yeah, I totally agree

Oh yeah, I totally agree with you guys on this. I hate smokers! I mean, geez, if they want to smoke, make sure they're not around people. Hate it when I'm like walking and then someone in front is all blowing their smoke and polluting the air and I have to breathe it in. I think it's great that they're banning smoking on public places in California.

I agree

I agree with you. I mean i don't have asthma and when ever i walk by someone that is smoking it bugs me a lot. My grandpa smokes and when we go to my grandparents house sometimes he goes out to smoke and when he comes back in the house the smell is like really strong and just feels like we are the ones smoking.I have always been against smoking,drugs,alcohol you know all that. I have noticed some places have areas where there is no smoking allowed except for designated smoking areas which is an improvement but i think more should be done.
Like you said,they aren't only killing themselves they are also taking years off of our lives.
