I&#x27;m not sure what the issue is with North Americans having &quot;their knickers in a twist.&quot;<p>It&#x27;s a proven health issue, even if the smoke is inhaled second-hand. I&#x27;d say it&#x27;s more of a responsibility for smokers in general: if you want to smoke, I won&#x27;t judge, but please respect me in turn and understand that you may be near people who would like not to be getting the smoke second-hand.<p>Again, not sure what the issue is.
