Dear Smoker,
This is a letter to kindly request that you discontinue blowing smoke in my face. If necessary, perhaps you could stand or walk downwind from me. I do not mean to offend you, but as you might have heard, smoking is very hazardous to the health. I do not wish to be subjected to your second hand smoke.
In addition to developing yellowed teeth and a raspy voice you may eventually contract cancer of the mouth, tongue, esophagus, or lungs. Your fingernails will yellow and your hair and clothes will bring that cancerous aroma with you wherever you go! Your breath will smell like your last fix. Perhaps you will even get a few burn marks—after all, it’s pretty hard core to put out your cigarette on your arm.
While this all sounds very sexy and appealing I must admit that not only do I not wish to increase my chances of heart attack or stroke, but I am ALLERGIC to smoke. Yes, that’s right. When you blow smoke in my face you are killing me. If I eventually contract cancer from second hand smoke (as my father did) should I sue you? Should I file a lawsuit saying that you intentionally tried to murder me? Maybe we could save all the fuss and you could just avoid polluting my air.
Don’t get angry—you have your air space too. It’s free for you to pollute it. But thing for a moment, does the baby in your womb want to be disfigured or mentally handicapped due to your freedom? Do the individuals around you want to gag as you exhale smoke into their noses? Does the environment need any more useless pollution? I know you are always arguing that smoking is your choice, your liberty. You are right! But it is also the choice of those around you to NOT smoke. And you have to respect that.
Sincerely,
In Need of Fresh Air
