All you anti smoking Nazis make me want to keep smoking even though I know I should quit.

I'm not anti smoking, I smoke once or twice when drinking, but I had to respond to the post where a grown man tried to make a point by using "momma" instead of "my mom or mother."

Smoking cigs is trashy as frick, generally. Smoking around kids is probably some form of battery and should be prosecuted if willful.

Momma smoked inside the car and the house and she is anything but trashy. Different times though.

your mother is trash

Trashy? Maybe, but it's not the government's job to legislate this. Small government remember?

I've never met a single person die from second hand smoke.

Well, there is a whole range of life experiences between perfect health and death, baw.

And exposure to second hand smoke as a child increases the risk of a whole raft of problems later in life, such as asthma, chronic respiratory infections, etc.

So, do what you want to yourself - keep it away from the kids. Don't be an obnoxious smoker.
