Only when I am really hot, and I would assume my family.

If you are talking about cigarettes. I never smoke. It cost a family member about 300,000 in medical bills, five major operations, chemotherapy, and routine doctor's visits for life , so I have no desire to follow in those foot steps.

So unless you throw water on me , I don't smoke.

Added for the fact someone asked the question.:

Alcohol is on the shelves though it leads to diabetes, liver failure, serosis, and heart attacks because people will make it theirselves and make much stronger brands than what are on the shelves currently. That was what was learned during prohibition.

Cigarettes are on the shelf for much the same reason. There is also the money that tobacco companies pay lobbyists and politicians to keep tobacco on the shelves and there is the fact that if the FDA did not regulate the industry who knows what pesticides and narcotics would be used in the tobacco you could smoke.

It is compulsory now that they place a warning lable on a pack of cigarrettes to stop the nonsense that it will not cause lung cancer or strain your heart. Liability suits are going the other way now. Tobacco companies are having to change the way they do business. Prices are going up. Taxes on cigarrettes are going up. Cigarrette machines are being removed everywhere. Doctors are formally coming out and testifying against cigaretes. I can get you six doctors in a minute who will tell you that if after smoking 35 years your lungs are not scarred, stained, and damaged from the effects of smoking then you are the only person in the world who can say that. Smoking effects the elasticity of the lungs and leads to COPD, emphazema, and a succeptability for pnuemonia later on in life. Check with a pulmonologist and let them take an MRI of your lungs and run a few breathing tests on you and show you the truth. You may not have cancer but you are damaging your system and no one at the tobacco companies is going to tell you you aren't.

BTW, we sell guns and explosives, rat poisoning and arsenic, and who knows how many other things that can kill you in this world. The fact that it is there does not make it right to do as we please.

And while the nicotene may work its way out of your system in a short period of time thus making the cigarrette more addictive, the effects or the tar remain in your system for considerably longer. Oncologists, Cardiologists, and Pulmonologists will tell you that staining may remain for up to 7 years after you quit smoking and the scaring stays forever even with current COPD inhalers. Give it a thought.

I smoke and have done for 35 years.
Irun p and down stairs without breathing heavy or getting tired , I load , drive and unload trucks all day , I do not suffer and have never suffered from any smoking related disease whatsoever including emphysemea so I don't care who smokes.
My doctor smokes and he tells me my blood pressure 110/65 is better than his.
If I did not smoke I would not have a reason to get up in the morning and would have nothing to look forward to on my coffee breaks at work.
If smoking causes heart disease or lung cancer the why don't I have it after all this time?
Personally I think that lung cancer and heart disease are contracted by people who live in large polluted cities and are breathing poisonous air and drinking dodgy water.
While you are smoking a cigarette which takes maybe 5 minutes unless you are a chainsmoker most of your life is spent not smoking and breathing normally in which time your body flushes out the toxins... particularly with hard exercise, good diet and drinking fluids.
It takes just 3 hours for the body to remove ALL of the nicotine from itself and finally if cigarettes are so dangerous in this health and safety world gone mad WHY ARE YOU STILL ABLE TO BUY TOBACCO PRODUCTS LEGALLY FROM STORES?
When someone can answer that question then I may believe we are all in danger of dying from the harmful effects of tobacco.
Who don't I want to see smoking?
Perhaps children should not smoke while they are still growing because I do know that it restricts HGH production.

No, I don't smoke. Never have. My father would smoke 4-5 packs of Camels a day and it drove me nuts. They stunk up everything and they made my contacts suck to my eyes. Very uncomfortable. But I don't mind it when others smoke....just like they shouldn't mind if I drink. If they don't blow the smoke in my face, then I won't pour my beer in their lap. Fair trade don't you think?

I tried smoking during a class chalet with no adults around,but then it wasn't all it was cracked up to be.So I just stopped doing it after I had gone home.Trust me,anyone that says that you'll get hooked with one puff,is LYING.
