‘In Turin, it is forbidden to smoke in front of children or pregnant women while outside.’
So you’re supposed to ask random women if they’re pregnant before lighting up? Awkward 😆.

According to the article it`s mostly symbolic as the authorities concede it would be near impossible to enforce and there is no expectation on private individuals or businesses to do so.
And although my eyes were open
They just might as well be closed

Hopefully it`ll move the onus on smokers to go and find a very quiet place. I was sitting outside Sainsbury`s a wee while ago and someone came over and started smoking. It`s rank and the sooner it`s banished from society the better.

As much as I can sympathise with thinking its rank etc I honestly think saying something like that should be banished because you don’t like it is crazy.

It’s a bit more than that though. Apart from the passive smoking health risks, people’s clothes stink after standing next to a smoker…
If you want to do self harm then fine, but not where it negatively impacts those standing next to you

Aw jeezo! At least come up with new honest arguments against it or be honest and say “I don’t like it so nobody can do it”
I don’t think my clothes have ever smelt of cigarettes since the smoking ban came in.
Why do people keep wanting to ban things other people do? Will you want to ban something you want to do soon?
We should also ban cycling. I mean it’s dangerous to fall off and every so often a pedestrian gets hit. It’s all fine and well saying “nobody is dead” but what would you say if it was you that got struck by a cyclist and had a broken leg? I won’t even mention the youth who always take it to far and do just outright dangerous stuff. I mean whoever sides with a 10yr old drunk on dragonsoop that enjoys these kind of things are just brain dead.

The poster above implied it was only because people didn’t like it and I was pointing out that it does impact those around who choose not to partake.
There used to be a guy that smoked at the bus stop I used going to work and I did stink when I arrived - to the point people assumed I was a smoker.

I’m not implying it, I’m saying it.
Why did you stand next to the guy smoking if it bothered you?

When wanting to catch a bus, a bus stop/shelter is usually the best place to stand at.

Spot on. I`ve got no problem folk doing what they want if it has no impact on others.
Passive smoking has been proved to have an impact.

Best ban vehicles on the roads as well then.

Legislation is in place to start to significantly reduce vehicle emissions.
As it is for smoking, but it`s taking way too long to enact. There`s now reason why it should just to let a bunch of ignorant selfish people impact the health of others.

We should also be restricting everyone’s calorific intake everyday. It’s ignorant and selfish to think you can walk around overweight eating anything you want. If we cut out over eating not only will it save the environment, the NHS will also be under less pressure
