I personally dont think smoking cigarettes is a good thing but I don't judge people for doing so. If a person chooses to do so then thats on them. One thing though is that I think people who do smoke should have courtesy for people who don't, especially kids. I do think it's a bad habit to have, how ever as long as im not around it I don't mind it. I have never smoked a cigarette nor do I ever intend to do.
