Lets minimize second hand smoking. Please stop smoking while walking!

It's mainly about my concern with avoiding potential health issues that are caused by the smoke inhaled from second hand smoke. People that smoke have decided against their own risks of health problems to smoke, unlike the non smoking population. We are subjected to inhale the smoke that smokers let put at almost every turning corner of the city. I just want the same freedom and ability to choose. I choose to be smoke free. I know that people are their own person and make their own decisions, but when those decisions affect more than just one individual it is viewed as a problem. There are babies (children) that are constantly subjected to this. Smokers should have their freedom to smoke, but in their own home or in a designated area where other smokers are. Walking along in the street with a cigarette on hand should not be allowed at all. It will help with the pollution as well. I'm not a public figure, just a concerned mother. I see how many people die each year just from issues brought on by the effects of second hand smoke inhalation. Did they have a choice? If this law is to be passed it will minimize the number of death from second hand smoke inhalation, and In turn help with the healthcare issues that these conditions cause by bringing the number of hospitalizations down due to this very problem. My community has a lot of smokers, and i choose to stand up for what is right, and we deserve to have clean air to breath as we commute to work, school, and any other place we decide to go without being subjected to endure these conditions. Bad enough we have other issues to worry about with our community and our children; this would help all those that choose to not smoke stay healthier. Thank you for taking the time out to read my petition. i hope you can sign it and support this cause.
