The introduction to this essay really highlighted the ability a writer has to create bias, and make good points out of any point of view. Far from a victim, yet the author conveys this sense of helplessness in the face of "Big Brother" when it comes to his unhealthy habit. It showed to me the importance of doing research and verifying sources when reading as to not be mislead by writer bias as demonstrated in this essay. the author makes 0 factual references and is entirely stuck in his way. Maybe a kale smoothie and walk in a smoke free environment wouldn't be the worst thing he can try.
The conclusion was unnecessarily aggressive/borderline radicalism with intentions of malice. sit ins next to a nursery? what does this accomplish? as if the babies have an opinion to her habit. She also doesn't want others opinions effecting her but will gladly blow her smoke in children's faces and force her choice on others. author just seems like a very angry individual who is either really irrational or on the Philip Morris payroll. cigarettes are not outlawed and she can smoke as many as she can afford in her home or in allowed public spaces. The author is no ones victim.
