Smoking while Pregnant

If women are old enough to get pregnant, then they're old enough to deal with the consequences of their decisions.

She was dumb enough not to use birth control when having sex to begin with...so doesn't say much about her being stupid of what she wants to do to herself to get rid of the pregnancy; it's her own fault for not taking precautious measures.

I have a solution for you: move to California. We pay higher taxes, our highways are more congested than ever, our living expenses are twice as high as anywhere else in the country, and we pay higher gas prices -- but we DO outlaw smoking inside of any public places (bars, restaurants, office buildings, etc.)

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Well, I meant to be cynically comical, but I do share your sentiments of "how stupid is the concept that smoke odor doesn't spread out to the 'non-smoking' side" and "why the fuck should my food taste and smell aweful because of your horribly stinky habitual craving."

...Ok, so I paraphrased it a little.

I think the laws that prohibit people from smoking in public places just generally encourage better smoking habits or to say the least, instills just a teensy bit more etiquette to smokers. At first it's forcing them to do it, but it just gradually becomes general/natural ettiquette once people get used to it.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
