Ok well the point that I'm trying to make is that cig smoke to non smokers is annoying and inconvient in many ways. BUT, doing everything in the world to make non-smokers happy is much more than annoying and inconvient, it's straight up killing us smokers.

I don't like anything about the act of smoking, not many smokers do. However I am addicted and depend on cigs since current laws don't allow me to light a joint whenever I get stressed out. I also know how unhealthy smoking is and try to limit it as much as possible. I have to at $25-30 a carton!

I know that there are plenty arguments against smoking but there's two sides to every argument. True it would cost money to eliminate the second hand smoke and true it's not fair to make non-smokers pay for that. One possible solution is to charge an extra fee to sit in the smoking section.

As far as eliminating the second hand smoke completely, I've been thinking of designing a personal size version of something like this just so I can smoke at my dads house. Design a holder for the lit end of a cig, have two small tubes, one to each side. One brings new air in to keep the cig burning, one takes the the smoke out, either through filtration or straight outside. I know I haven't figured out everything as far as how to dispose of ashes and butts so that the smell from them doesn't leech out.

The point I'm trying to make is that there's a much better solution to the smoking problem rather than just banning it damn near everywhere. Us smoker's are used to paying an arm and a leg both in money and sacrifices for the freedom to smoke. No smoking areas create chain smokers, chain smoking kills a helluva lot quicker than regular, making nonsmokers comfortable is no reason to kill us smokers.
