The original title of the this thread is 'Smoking near children should be punishable' the part I object to is 'the punishable' side of it. That is taking away my freedom to make a concious decision of whether I light up in front of a child or not! |
Re: Smoking near children should be a punishable offence!
I think children being near me when I'm smoking should be punishable!!!
JESUS can I not have a bit of peace and quiet while I have a ciggy!!:rolleyes: |
Re: Smoking near children should be a punishable offence!

You may not be in office yet Gayle but you are standing for an official office as a local councillor. That makes you a prospective politician. So if you get elected into office will you do something about the pollution in the atmosphere? I guess not because as you state you won’t be in a position to make any difference. Quote:
My MP has had several communications about my pollution point. Sadly she hasn’t even seen fit to acknowledge receipt let alone actually reply. But what else can you expect from Labour. By the way why shouldn’t I, as you put it, sound off on here? Isn’t that what a forum is for – to put forward a point of view? You sounded off about a young mum strapping her kids into a car with a fag in her gob. I suppose that you lobbied your MP about passive smoking? If we really did breathe pure air without any pollutants all the various studies into passive smoking would have some substance. As it is passive smoking can only be a probable cause to respiratory diseases. Science is not infallible. |
Re: Smoking near children should be a punishable offence!
Yup, i think smoking near children is bad i have 3 children i smoke in the kitchen out the way of them but my oldest daughter smokes aswell it is bad but id rather her do it infront of me than behind my back:rolleyes: |
Re: Smoking near children should be a punishable offence!
I've not repeated anything, perhaps you should check back to see if you have. You obviously don'y realise that you have.
I haven't presumed everyone who has an argument is anti-anti, I haven't even said that the anti-anti's arguments are wrong, because a lot of the time they're right. I've just said that most of the arguments in this thread have little or nothing to do with smoking while strapping a child in to a car seat. Jambutty for examole wants cars banned. The punishable side shouldn't come into it because a responsible parent wouldn't do it for reasons which have nothing to do with long term health and more to do with common sense. A child near you should be a punishable offence, so if you went near a child thats in a car in a car seat, thats the childs fault for going near you. You bring an interesting point slinky which would it rather be a stressed out person getting very annoyed towards a child or least being calm having a cig.......... You NEED a ciggarette to cope with your own child? you need to choke them, doesn't that just make them cry? ah you mean the smoke calms the child, like bees, got you. Jam butty, you haven't really asked your mp to ban cars have you?, and you wonder why she hasn't answered. God help you if you get in gayle, you've got all this to look forward to lol. |

Re: Smoking near children should be a punishable offence!
I have suggested to my MP Madhatter that the smoking ban was a hysterical knee jerk reaction to the anti smoking lobby but passive smoking was not the complete picture. I got no response about Fluoride or folic acid either.
And yes I did expect a reply or at least an acknowledgement of receipt. It’s called common courtesy. I don’t recall stating that I want cars banned Madhatter. So be so kind as to not put words in my mouth. What I did say is that the infernal combustion engine causes more atmospheric pollution than tobacco ever did so targeting smokers and not vehicles as well is hypocrisy in the extreme. So not being a parent disqualifies Madhatter from having an opinion on this issue does it accymel? Wow! Big Brother is closer than I thought. |

It doesn't disqualify him but he cant truelly appreciate what demands of being a parent is until you are one!!! Im sure even us parents had quite a view of how to parent before we had our darlings & how we'd be & how they turn out how we wouldnt be like our parents at all mmmmmmmmm quite a different story when you have them though, nobody can truelly comprehend the responsibility & difficulty until you have your own:rolleyes: Didn't realise a non parent can tell a parent how to bring up children [oh so easily] ...or mind you why not im getting told how to run my life by the non smokers brigade:( |
Re: Smoking near children should be a punishable offence!
I haven’t got a horse so I have no idea what you are chuntering on about accymel.

Re: Smoking near children should be a punishable offence!
Who is your M.P. Jambutty, Janet Anderson?
When I've had no reply to a question, which I didn't last year from Conservative candidate James Mawdsley, I found as soon as I mentioned I'd posted about the lack of response on a local forum, my questions were answered pronto, ableit unsatisfactorily. |
Re: Smoking near children should be a punishable offence!
Yes that’s her garinda but she is my MP be default. I didn’t vote for her.
