Second hand smoke is overrated. I mean come on, if i’m smoking and Ruben passes by, I’m willing to bet that his chances of getting cancer are not higher after he passes by, or walks out of that entrance i have to be twenty feet away from. “
Most people affected by second-hand smoke live or work with the smoker. If a pregnant woman smokes, her fetus is smoking, too.
But if Ruben passes by and inhales your smoke, he could possibly be someone who is allergic to it, so don’t be so quick to automatically assume there is no harm done. If someone wants to smoke solely inside a bubble, kol hakavod. But it is unfair to force others to also breathe the air that is polluted by this habit, against their will.
