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.

I also smoke a pipe, and pipe smokers are tolerant. In Madrid, there is an Association of Smokers for Tolerance, with smokers and nonsmokers as members. But I'm trying to quit it, and I ask permission to smoke or I easily abstain from smoking when there are other people who do not smoke or I'm in enclosed spaces. No problem with me.

Nice picture, PerCLupi! And it looks like your computer skills are rapidly increasing. :-)
