while this may be true... I kinda don't care what people choose to do to their own bodies... for me, the smoke is a "public" issue. It is very difficult to control smoke. If I'm BBQing, smoking a cigarette, or lighting a joint, people within several meters of me in every direction are going to know about it.

Right, and because it's smoke, they're directly harming your health in a small but measurable way. They're causing you and your kids to breathe smoke.

maybe to some small extend... but mostly they're bugging me (aka "get off my lawn")
