Houses have windows...and no, smoking outside is not harmful.

"Tobacco smoke inside a room tends to hang in mid-air rather than disperse. Hot smoke rises, but tobacco smoke cools rapidly, which stops its upward climb. Since the smoke is heavier than the air, the smoke starts to descend.

A person who smokes heavily indoors causes a permanent low-lying smoke cloud that other householders have no choice but to breathe."

Exactly.

I don't smoke around people who don't want to be smoked around. But if it is my house, my car, a friend who's said it's all good in their house/car, or in an open space - tough luck. My body. My choice.

Yes sir. Every party I go to, I end up going through about three or so packs, because everyone knows I'll let them bum off me. :p

I think that the government should ban smoking and introduce laws where anyone caught smoking is charged with attempted murder (and those distributing them are charged with attempted mass murder).

Yeah, we tried that with alcohol, and it did not turn out to well.

I think the government should make smoking mandatory, and those that don't be thrown in jail.

Suicide should not be illegal.

And prohibition/war on drugs is a failed experiment, as I have already fully demonstrated.

The poll should allow re-voting. People change whether or not they smoke all the time.
Also, there should be the option of "Former smoker"

It isn't suicide. It is putting other in danger from second hand smoke.
