“Cigarette smoking is
clearly identified as the chief,
preventable cause of death
in our society.”
C. Everett Koop
I’m not a smoker. I’ve never been a smoker. And yes, this is America, so one has the right to smoke if they wish, right? When, however, one’s choice to smoke infringes upon the rights of a non-smoker to breathe clean, fresh air, we have a problem.
One glaring example of this violation of non-smokers being exposed to second-hand smoke is children riding in a car in which an adult is smoking. In my opinion, this is nothing short of child abuse. Fortunately, legislators in the State of Delaware agree and have passed a law making this illegal in their state. More states, in fact, all states need to do the same.
Since I’m not an expert on the matter, the less I write, the better. So I would like to rely on this informative article by the Center for Disease Control to provide information for those who share my concern — and those who don’t. Click here: SAVE OUR CHILDREN
