Besides that, cancer existed long before people started smoking, even lung cancer. Genes play a larger role in getting it than second hand smoke.
According to fairly recent studies, second hand smoke is slightly less carcinogenic than tap water and white bread, and slightly more so than vegetables and fruit.

This is true but the Gov. has most people convinced that it's second hand smoke that is killing people. What people
forget is there were Million's and Million's of babies born with no health problems and the mother's smoked, but this was before the anti smokers got the power. I might add same with drinking booze, coffee. Now I'd venture to say NO way NO how are you going to convince' em any Diff. You see if they don't like something and they pass a law against it then
it must be a good law. Wait until they pass a law, that you have to have a breatherlizer at the door before entering bar and every 30 min.'s. Or Camera's in all rest room's, to check if you wash you hands after using it. If you don't then the door won't open. Until it's effect's you then the law is a good one. And if you nonsmokers thinks its just about smoke and smokers you got's your head up your ass hole.
Don't know if you know it, but if everyone quit smoking, you're Taxes would go up a Min. of 5% and most likely more like 10% plus.
