Smoking in Public

Smoking in public places is hazardous not only for the smoker but for everyone around the smoker. The person can smoke their ciggaret wherever but one person has no say to whether or not he/she would like them not to because of second-hand smoke. People all over America should only be allowed to smoke in private places.

Minnesota has taking the first step to make this a reality. Minnesota banned smoking in public places, including the following: restaurants, bars, hotels, and buldings. Minnesota sees the need to try to avoid minnesotans from suffering or dieing from second-hand smoke. Scientists and researches say that second-hand smoke is actually worse for you then actually smoking itself. So one could not smoke a day in his/her life and still die from skin cancer because he/her was around smokers. This is not fair for the one that did not smoke at all so that he/she would be healthy.

Smoking in public places should be banned in every state, in order to cut down the deaths of second-hand smoke. Minnesota has done it and the rest is up to rest of the United States.
