Should cigarettes be banned?

Question

Answer

Let's ban alcohol too. And cell phones. And anything else that could harm us.

Answer

I'm an adult. I'll smoke if I please. The government can't control everything. Let's ban junk food, cell phones, Internet, alcohol, weed, fuckin everything. C'mon, people. Get it together!

Answer

Yeah. Because things like that work soooooo well. I mean, does anyone else remember Prohibition?

Answer

No I hate em but it's not my right. We can only educate and have good programs to help smokers quit. Most start because of getting smoking breaks that are only provided if you are a smoker. Who's to blame there?

Answer

No, and I say that as someone who lost a loved one to cancer that was caused by smoking. At this point it's no secret that they are bad for your health. I hate cigarettes and personally could not care less if they disappeared, but adults should be able to make their own decisions and banning them probably wouldn't do any good.

Answer

I'm kind of on the fence about this one. If I said yes, I would be a hypocrite because I smoke and I enjoy smoking despite how harmful I know it is.

But cigarettes are a government controlled money making tactic. They are sold just about everywhere, where I live the age restriction is only 18, they tax the hell out of them and they are known to cause 16 different kinds of life threatening, incurable cancers. And hey, money makes the world go round. So I'm in that percentile of the idiots that poison my body at least 6 times a day. And I may live a long life without ever getting cancer or I may end up pouring my life savings into chemotherapy and numerous medications and treatments just to survive what little time I have left.

You can't compare cigarettes to other drugs. You get something out of weed and beer or even meth. You get a high or a buzz. You get nothing out of smoking a cigarette. It's all in your head. That's why they are so addicting. I can justify buying a pack of beer to take the edge off. Or smoking a blunt to relax. But I can't justify smoking a cigarette. There's no purpose for cigarettes - not to the convincer anyway

Answer

This was tough for me to answer. I watched my grandmother struggle with and die from lung cancer after smoking for about forty years. Naturally I wouldn't want anyone else to go through that but at the same time I don't think it's fair to just ban them. But I do think there should be way more regulations on where you can smoke. If you choose to smoke that's your choice but it isn't fair to expose other people to second hand smoke.

Answer

No, because then they might aswell ban alcohol..... Like hell do i want that

Answer

I hate cigarettes! Not banned, but I wish I could cure everyone of their addiction.

Answer

I think they are bad and wish people didn't smoke cigarettes as they are damaging to the body. However, I do believe people have the right to choose what they put into their body.
