game and the person next to you lights up, is that okay with you? Maybe you jump on a plane for a cross country flight and the people sitting all around you chain smoke for half the trip. Is this okay? Let’s say you prepared…you decided “Hey, no worries…I’ve done what I needed to do. I bought this nice portable O2 tank and mask from Amazon that protects me from second hand smoke…I’m good. Let them smoke away.” However, you look across the aisle to the young mother sitting across the aisle with her 8 month old daughter and three year old son. They are taking the same flight to go see grandma and grandpa for the first time. You can’t see them through the cloud of smoke that fill the aisles of the plane…and darn it…Amazon hasn’t started selling the kids version of the O2 mask yet. It’s hopefully coming out in the next month or two for some kids…maybe next year for the really little ones. But come on…what are the chances that either of these kids die from second hand smoke. Wait…do they have asthma? Never mind…that’s just another factor we probably don’t want to consider.

Public safety is not a personal decision. Only 4% of car accident involve drunk drivers. Is that low enough to make drunk driving legal? 10-20% of lung cancer in the country comes from people who have never smoke and let’s say
