Smokers are tolerant people.
Some smokers are. The majority are not.
Expecting to be able to smoke anywhere you want at any time without asking people around you if it's a problem is NOT a sign of tolerance. Not smoking for 10 minutes every 15 minutes is NOT a sign of tolerance. Throwing cigarette butts all over the place is NOT a sign of tolerance. In the long run, we're all dead. John Maynard Keynes
