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.
2012 – Change or Cataclysm?
Just thought I’d throw an interesting subject out there. I’ve always been interested in the complexity of theories that have been floating around. I’ve probably heard them all, but I’d like to hear what you people think. If it’s a change, what kind of a change do you expect? Do you think that all of the information about 2012 is just a coincidence? Do you believe that the mayans could predict some sort of cataclysm? What about Edgar Cayce’s predictions about Atlantis and their demise? How would that coincide? With the exception of Christianity (and perhaps including them!) is the impending doom as close as some think? The questions progress, continuously, and unending. I know its ironic to be looking for more questions in Yahoo! Answers, but maybe I’m just an ironic guy. Besides, from what I understand, Yahoo! Answers is just a very elaborate message board with a neat point system for posting. Right?
I’m not sure that you guys understand what I’m really getting at. I should have worded it differently, Do you think we’ll survive 2012 and do you think that there will be a large cataclysmic change, or just a small change when the sun passes the galactic equator. See, while the Mayan calender may appear to end at 2012 with a significant ‘number,’ its actually a specific date which starts the cycle of their calander over and also starts our solar system’s cycle over. Maybe you guys should do a little research before answering a question.
