The whole anti-smoking lobby is over run with dicks. I should think your country should be giving an education to every single child who wants one, regardless of how they got there. If the nation flaunts its system and brags about how it is the elsupremo place to be - naturally less fortunates are going to want to be there.

Honestly I couldnt agree more. Some folks may be offended by seeing the 10 commandments or maybe "Jesus Saves" on billboards but, I personally could live without seeing Viagra and Trojan ads. \n\nWe arent allowed to show a commercial for cigarettes anymore but we can discuss in detail how fast a car goes in a commercial and yet, people fail to see that car accidents cause more deaths in a DAY than in a year of smoking related illnesses.

The reason for the law (and it does not include every public area) is due to the fact that "second hand smoke" is believed to cause cancer.   I don't know where you live, but in Maryland you can still smoke in diners, clubs and bars in designated areas.  You can don't smoke in any government buildings, and most office buildings.   As for its origins in South Africa, I don't know about that.

None. don't want to litter. I thought the best protest would be purchasing cigarettes from a state which doesn't have a smoking ban. Have to travel about an hour but gee at least that other state without smoking bans will be getting my cigarette taxes. Imagine if every smoker did that? Might have to purchase a few cartons at a time but let the state feel the lack of smoking dollars.

The cigarette manufacturers took their commercials off the air voluntarily.  The reason they did that was that congress past a law requiring TV stations to give free time for public service announcements against smoking.  The more the the TV industry advertised the more exposure the PSA's would get and the more free commercial time the stations would have to give a way.  It was decided that it was no longer economical to do television advertising on TV.

Tobacco use is responsible for more than one of every six deaths in the United States.It causes over 390,000 deaths in the united states alone. Its the #1 preventable cause of death in the u.s. Incidentally, there is no hard data indicating second hand smoke to ANY detrimental health effects. Food for thought...

Unfortunately there are still a few.\n\nFortunately, there numbers dwindle each year.  \n\nRemember, we live in a world where nearly half the population can’t name their local community leaders. (Governors, Mayors etc...), why many of the holidays are important or any number of other 'common' facts. Thy certainly do not understand the truth behind most political issues let alone the facts behind a major health issue. \n\nI mean come on, how many people still smoke and then get upset when they find out they have lung cancer? Or how many people get mad at the police when they are arrest for DUI? Do you think they understand AIDS?

If you are in the US, don't bother opening a tobacco store.  We are going to ban smoking across the country.  Its taking a little longer than first thought, but should be done in the next five years.
