Is it necessary to forbid smoking? State your opinion and reasons.

Despite the knowledge that smoking is a potential killer, cigarette use is on the rise in most countries. Indeed, people are lighting up at a younger age. Twenty per cent of boys in secondary schools in Guangzhou smoke occasionally. Though unlike to ban cigarette smoking altogether, it is imperative to forbid public smoking.

Public smoking is a health threat to others, especially the non-smokers. It is scientifically verified that second-hand smokers are four times more like to develop lung cancer than smokers and 20 times more likely than non-smokers. Smokers may have the right to inflict their own bodies but most not impair the health of others. Indeed, some people, asthma suffers for example, are allergic to tobacco smoke. Then we have many ladies who simply cannot stand the smell of cigrattes. In exercising one's own liberty, one must never infringe on that of others.

Additionally, smoking is a potential fire hazad. It is estimated by the National Fire Department that 30 per cent of fire was caused by unextinguished cigarette butts. How many lives have to be lost and houses burnt down before we come to our senses and realize that from time to time some people will manage to discard an unextinguished cigarette butt in the wrong place and at the wrong time?  Given the fallible nature of mankind, it is always safer to ban public smoking altogether.

Moreover, even private smoking should be dissuaded. People smoke out of many reasons. Some do it because it is cool; some do it out of curiosity; still some smoke to keep their weight down. However, smoking is never the solution it promises to be. Its perceived benefits are illusionary and transient. The euphoria produced by cigarette is akin to that generated by alcohol or drugs, an escape from reality at best.

Thus it is in the interest of the public and the smokers themselves that public smoking should be banned. Those against the using of drugs should be able to see the rationale of forbidding smoking.
