I don't usually see people coming back to comment on their own FMLs, but I wanted to see what people had to say. 136, I don't make a habit of walking by smokers. I've just had a few too many family members diagnosed with lung cancer from what should be called a lethal drug. I wasn't trying to be condescending with my remarks. I was simply giving a harsh reality in a way that could possibly cause him To put the cigarette down. To add on I'll ask a question to everyone: How angry would you be if you found out you had lung cancer or emphysema some second-hand smoke?

Guess you learned to keep your mouth shut.
Making comments like that to strangers is just a bad idea. It's not your place to "[give] a harsh reality in a way that could possibly cause him to put the cigarette down." Violence isn't the answer to an unwelcome comment like that, of course, but "smells like cancer over here" is a really snarky, uncalled-for thing to say to someone on the street. I'd be pissed too, and I don't even smoke.
To the op "I've just had to many people in my family get lung cancer" uh ever think it could be GENETICS?
It's proven that smoking kills 1 in 2 smokers. So no, if everyone in your family got lung cancer and they all smoked, it's probably the cigarettes doing it. "I've just had a few too many family members diagnosed with lung cancer from what should be called a lethal drug." Next time, read the WHOLE sentence.
Thank you #293. I appreciate that
If your going to be a smart ass at least know how to defend yourself!

I don't see how you wouldn't deserve that.
You should mind your own business in future, they made the decision to smoke so let them get on with it.
