You are going to need way more then 1000 signatures to make a difference. Good luck though! I was in shock when people started lighting cigarettes at my own wedding INSIDE. Should be illegal and enforced!

2nd hand smoke definitely dangerous. Breaking the law should cost where it hurts.

I find it especially annoying to stand in the rain outside bus shelters because high school students young enough to be my grandchildren are smoking inside the shelters. Keep up the good efforts.

Stop smoking!!! It's killing the people that doesn't smoke, it's forcing non smoker to live a life of a smoker. And I have a choice to stay clean as much as possible but I can't now because people care about them self only!!!!!!

Great idea! Let's make our public places smoke free. Second hand smoke also causes a number of health issues that we didn't ask for!

I don't want cancer just because someone else can't wait with their silly self-inflicted addiction until they're alone.

Another way to approach this is how California did in the 1990s, which was from the angle of protecting the health of the employees of the establishments where people were smoking. I am not familiar yet with the government agencies, but perhaps if there is an agency involved with worker safety and health, that might be another approach to take.

In plenty of public places, people are smoking in SPITE of the no smoking signs. A good percentage of the population, myself included, do not wish to subject ourselves to the choices of others and how that impacts our OWN health. Please enforce the no smoking laws and sign postings so that those of us allergic, sensitive, or simply choosing our health and ability to be outside for any reason can actually live our lives in peace.

There is NO reason a first-world democracy like Israel should not be enforcing its own laws. Going into bars and clubs with people clearly ignoring the law is unacceptable. Please enforce this very important law so that another 700 people don't have to die just because other people want to smoke in clubs and bars.

Wouldnt it be a perfect world if every single smoker in Israel threw away their smokes and embraced good health and clean air!!

Would love to encourage healthier practices in this society and would love to be allowed to breath fresh air when I go out! The air here is bad enough already, why make it worse for yourselves and everyone else? Not to mention the cigarette butts everywhere...

I agree that the no smoking laws should be enforced and also with a fine.
