Why must so many people discriminate against smokers?

You see so many questions on Yahoo Answers asking if its o.k. to punch a smoker, o.k. to set them on fire, or other questions that basically entail treating them like a piece of crap. These people direct hate & self issues onto smokers as if the world stops because of a bad habit. Yet they get into a car every day, start it up & out as many chemicals as a cigarette. While they are trying to beat or set on fire another smoker a truck passes. It is letting out as much pollution as a smoker. It doesnt make much sense. I do agree you shouldnt be forced to smell smoke. Outdoors there is enough room there shouldnt be such a problem. Whats next? What clothes you can wear? What food you can eat? If you continue to regulate what a person can & cannot do you will no longer live in a society of free will. Whats your view on these issues?
I would like to thank the that have responded with regards to the truck & car analogy. Yet so many others seem to totally avoid that topic Fact remains, car puts out MORE pollution than cigarettes. If a smoker is a murderer than so is every motorist & every person operating equipment that produces the same sort of exhaust.
LOL Sad. Atleast the last answer agrees cars cause pollution. So do factories. But then again according to them I am only pointing a finger. What is that? a finger pointed at a smoker. Imagine that. Well there appears to me no recourse for someone who smokes. Since smokers cause pollution & kill themselves & the whole world, We need to stop it. Same goes with cars, factories, you name it. If it smokes we must put it out. Stomp it down. Once we’re done we will all sit around the camp fire with no food clothing or cars & talk about what a good job we did…. wait… fire produces pollution.. Sorry kids, no campfire tonight…
Well, This question has run its course long enough. Just thought I would add the horse & buggy to a growing list of alternative means of transportation. On a lighter note, I dont smoke either. I dont really care if you smoke either. Have a good one everyone.
