second-hand smoke kills nonsmokers more than smokers. I don't see how this could be because the smoker is not only inhaling the smoke, but also breathing the second-hand smoke. Also, how many people are killed by drunk drivers yearly? Even if someone says they are social drinkers, well 9:10 they are drinking some sort of alcohol daily. However, that is acceptable by the majority of society but it's a totally different thing regarding people that smoke. Some people treat you like you have the plague or something.

On the other hand, there are people that pass that judgment on people that are overweight as well. It seems to me that if you are not at least close to anorexic and have absolutely no hips and pretty much have the body of a young boy, the majority of society judges you as lazy as well as anything else they want to and people feel they have the right to say something to total strangers about their weight. I would say a food addiction would be the hardest of all considering you have to eat to live (unlike smoking and alcohol).
