Tobacco can kill your precious person.
Smoking can take away your life.
What's even worse, it can take away your precious person.
In this video, we can see how much tabacco damaged one's body and life.
Smokers know smoking is bad for their health, but they still smoke.
After watching this video,
...do you still say 'I won't quit smoking' ?
Not against smokin
I'm not against smoking, the reason why for that is because I smoke. Smoking cigarettes ain't never done me nothing wrong so far, my mom is concerned about me smoking, saying it's not good for my health, but I think I'm okay. These regulation things going on these days, if they want to regulate, why do they still sell cigarettes at vending machines? I guess the first thing they should do is not selling them to teenagers. I'm commenting like i'm against smoking, but I'm not. Smoking in taxis have been banned in some parts of Japan, if they are doing the same thing in Tokyo, I don't think I can take it.

Smoking Ban in Spain
Spaniards have been among the world's most enthusiastic smokers since tobacco was brought back to Spain by Christopher Columbus from the Americas. It is said that the cause of Spaniards' death is smoking. About 50000 Spaniards a year die as a result of the habit, and 1500 non-smokers are also thought to die of passive smoking.
At the start of this year, Spain introduced a smoking ban. It completely bans smoking in offices and so on. Restaurants, bars, and cafeterias whose floor space is less than 100 square meters have to ban smoking . However, according to a study, only 10% of small bars and 15% of small restaurants have banned smoking. In addition, smoking was still permitted in many hospital cafeterias. It became clear that the new law didn't mean a big change for smokers.
First of all, I was surprised to know that Spaniards are great tobacco consumers. At the same time, the awareness of Spanish smokers to smoking seems to be not enough. I think it means there are still many people who are irritated with secondhand smoke. As this article said, smoking affects not only smokers' health but also nonsmokers' health, so it is ridiculous that people who don't smoke die of smoking-related diseases.
