Second Hand Smoke

Every time some jackass, including such “luminaries” as the U.S. Surgeon General, pontificates about the dangers of second hand cigarette smoke it is usually followed with a retraction within a day or so.  The plain truth is the scare tactics are just that; there is little or no real evidence, despite the claims, despite the source.

But try and discuss this reasonably with most people.  First of all, they do not want to hear anything that challenges their preconceived ideas. Secondly,and I think most importantly, this is being used as an excuse for non-smokers to place an onus on smokers, making them responsible for the health of those around them.  Utter B.S.  Even if second hand smoke is an issue, it is a minor contributor to overall risks of life.

For instance, if you were to light up a cigarette there are people who would eviscerate you with a kitchen knife, but think nothing of the fact that they live in such places like LA.  It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that second hand smoke is the lesser risk but convince the fool’s with rightous on their side. Hypocrites unite.
