On the other hand, if we're not talking about asthmatics alone? 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.

This is a common one from smokers who try to downplay their smoke. Which makes no sense because they are only adding to the pollution in the immediate area, affecting everyone in that small area of concentrated pollution, I,e. bus stop where the affected do not always have the option to move away.

Smokers may not realize how far their smoke can carry. In some buildings smoke can come up from the first floor balcony and into a third floor balcony, forcing the person on the third floor to shut their windows if they want to keep the smoke out of their apartment. I have to deal with this.

Then there are smokers who flip their butts out of their car window and it ends up in the car behind them. This has happened to me. Very nasty.

There are reasons why some places have restricted or outlawed smoking in public, and they are very good reasons.

My asthma actually also settled a bit after moving from the country to the big city - although I guess German cities look hella good for air in international comparisons because everything is freaking green.

One kind of pollution is not like the other.

Smoking at a bus stop would still be a dick move even if asthmatics weren't a factor though; it fucking reeks, and isn't fun to breathe for passive smokers who are otherwise healthy either.
