disclaimer: This is no political topic but more a cultural one IMO. There is also no agenda but straight facts
Smoking, vaping (and smoking weed) are all a very rude addiction, poisoning random people in a 50 meters 3D radius with very toxic, super smelly fumes (already short exposure causes headaches, I personally cannot breath when exposed to smoke, cancer; we all know it).
Currently I can't ventilate my room bc a bunch of my neighbours are smoking 24/7 in our building beneath us and next to us. In Germany the laws are super stupid and I ahve to sue which costs around 10.000€ if I lose (to get a fair use of the balcony, sharing system where they can smoke all paired hours).
I am basically dying in the summer, that is no joke (you know, Germany has no Air conditioners and the bought ones cannot be installed air thight).
There are 10000 rational, by studies proven reasons against smoking standing against "It's our right" (why though????)
Especially in Croatia and Balkan countries the smokers are even worse. They are smoking more, being more aggressive about it and see it as the most normal non-toxic thing to do.
This really hinders buying any property/flat and just enjoying being outside.
Any US guys can totally relate, it just isn't rational. Just prohibit it ffs.
