In big cities objecting to having a smoker around you makes little sense. The air is polluted as it is, this cigarette is not going to change anything.

Have to disagree. I live in a big city and I have the same sensitivities to cigarette smoke as the anon above and yes, it makes a difference. Because we are so sensitive to it we can tell when someone is smoking within about 15 feet of us. I've lost count of the number of times I've had to move upwind or just away from someone because I didn't want to risk getting a migraine.

Yes, but I think it qualifies as a ~medical condition? It does affect you immediately on a physiological level.

You said that cigarette smoke wouldn't make a difference milling around with all the other air pollution in a big city. That's not the case to people who are overly sensitive to it. And I suppose it's a kind of medical condition, though I doubt I'd get any kind of diagnosis for it, but you didn't qualify that part of your comment that way.

Um, sorry. Must've worded poorly. What I meant to say was "for people with no medical conditions it makes little sense", not "it doesn't make sense at all". It seems that the author of the previous comment meant general health damage, such as the increasing probability of getting cancer tumours.

It sure sucks in case of allergy/hyper-sensitivity, but then many people are allergic to flower pollen, and it isn't a sufficient reason to prohibit carrying flowers around. Perhaps the only way is to ask them to stop in every individual case, and if they do not agree to - then they're a dick.

Well, I don't ask them to stop or anything because they're outside and so long as they're not in a smoke-free zone they're free to do so. That's why I move. I'm also thankful I live in a city where outside is about the only place left people can smoke in public.

Oh, please. Flowers don't give you cancer; they make your nose run, sneeze, and maybe give you headaches. There is no excuse for smoking in public. At All. I don't give a damn about how addicted smokers are to their nicotine. i don't smoke and it smells nasty and secondhand exposure may give me cancer. The only place they should be allowed to smoke is in the privacy of their own homes.
