      Any place where you don’t force your smoke upon people who have no choice about being there. It’s not that hard: Don’t make your smoking anybody else’s problem.

      Or, if this is more your style of communicating: Up your ass.

        It’s only 6’ in Canada? It’s 50’ in the US.

        Of course nobody actually enforces it, so it’s effectively nothing, but still…

          It’s 25’ in Virginia and that’s for hospitals and schools, maybe there’s a distance a business could enforce but honestly probably literally outside the doorframe is all they can do most places.

        I would love to see someone get fined for that. I wonder if anyone ever has.

          Every smoker I’ve met gets very defensive about “why can’t I breathe my toxic fumes on everyone else?? What’s the big deal?? And then they get so mad when I litter like get over yourself”

          Smoking in public is indefensible. There are smoking cessation programs.

            Agreed. Vaping on the other hand is fine and with how many people vape now thankfully not something anyone has any remaining institutional power to enforce a ban on, so glad I can puff on the train in peace now

              I don’t think the fumes from vaping are especially safe or welcome, either. At least there’s no littering, though

                  Canadian here. Weed vapes are fine if they use safe ingredients. What you are on about is black market vape juice.

                  Edit: the ew weed means all your arguments against it are likely bad faith.

                  Edit 2: bro gets corrected ob the saftey of weed and loses his mind using refeer madness li es backing hard drugs as a replacement. You’re cooked dude.

              I think you’re confused - seems like you think that a public place is your private space. Public space is a place where people need to consider OTHER people. You just proved OPs point.

              What the fuck is your logic? “I get a right to air, so I will pollute it for you.”
