I didn't. I explicitly stated that non smokers have some valid grips BUT a large component of criticism originates from simple dislike of the smell and society-at-large's overt declaration of open season on smokers.

In support, at iidb, I pariticipated in a smoking thread where the smoker, even after admitting that the health risks were iffy, insisted that he would douse a smoker with water because he found the smoke offensive.
I responded that any nonsmoker that doused me with water would probably get beaten as throwing something one someone is assualt by definition.
