Smoking bans in contrast to the rest of the law

It is well known that the respective governments of almost all countries of the world were obliged by the World Health Organization to adopt laws, constituting for most foreign legislative standards imported from England to limit the social custom and habit of smoking to only take place outdoors. Neither of these countries nor their states and parliaments are obliged to imitate the ban on smoking which has been in force in England since 2007 which restricts smoking with a view to combating it, because peace is preferable compared to this war, for example, the development of laboratory-distilled tobacco that lacks many harmful tar substances for their introduction into less harmful cigarettes is an example of a peaceful solution to the problem of premature deaths involving smoking, and the existence by inventing electronic means of smoking through steam was another. The WHO admittedly does not accept these solutions and continues to fight them in the same way as it fights smoking.

Many countries have taken extreme and legislative measures to combat smoking by robbing disproportionate and excessive taxation of tobacco products from consumers through the shopkeepers who make them available with excessive taxation and removing the external illustrations of these products, infringing on the intellectual property of those who worked to create them. This disastrous approach without any additional creative dimension achieves nothing other than the violation of citizens’ rights and the deprivation of their liberty.

The smoking ban that is unfortunately in force in almost every country must be mitigated in order to deal with those who smoke in an equivalent way to the rest. It must respect them and recognise their rights and their right to smoke unhindered without state and legislative interference, insofar as the law exists to regulate minimum conditions of the nature that smoking is allowed exclusively to adults and must consist only of tobacco. Only that is why the law exists and that is why it should be used and not involve a smoking ban.

The smoking ban deals with an issue that falls within the competence and functioning of the national constitution and is not a law under justification. The assignment of instructional demands such as that of displacement and movement, which violates the human right to free motion and free circulation, is not allowed instead of excluding actions. The law exists to regulate interpersonal relationships, not what people do autonomously. Without being an act of aggression not even against any neighbouring person, smoking is neither a misconduct nor an offence. The energy of smokers to remove themselves while being abused from the rest should be compensated at the same value.
