    Well it prevents more people from throwing stuff out the window and it's one less thing that may cause an accident.
    I knew someone that once tried to throw his cigerette out of the car window but unfortunately, the wind blew it staight back in and down the back of his pants. He nearly crashed the car. He had to quickly pull over, get out of the car and pull his pants down to get it out.

    Why oh why do people just toss their cigarette butts on the ground? So rude and disgusting. I *HATE* it.

    Smoking stinks, the banning in public places is way too late coming in, yet still very welcome. And littering with your dog ends is just a complete disregard of any responsibility you may have.
    Get over it smokers, you're a dying breed ;)

    you know jamie youre right..smoking does stink. what i find fascinating is that inch by inch smokers are squeezed in regard to where they can smoke. if governments had the balls theyd just outlaw smoking all together, instead of neglecting their duty of care.

    I think to find this answer one must go to the bars where they seem to have big tanks for the butts to go in, but come the morn all you see is butts on the ground. Hell, if I couldn't smoke anywhere but outside I'd take my frustration out on nature too.

    dogshit gets washed away and is easily turned back into the earth where as your fucking cigarettes do not.
    how in the world can you compare cigarette littering to dogshit.
    that is probably the most insane thing i have heard in quite some time.
    cigarette butts are fucking plastic fibers.
    dogshit, not a plastic fiber.
    nyc, fucking dump...

    Yeah, and if it was banned outright, people would be up in arms about a 'nanny' state. As far as I'm concerned, banishing the stinking, unhealthy habit to outdoors is good for now. You should see how pathetic these people look, cowering in the doorway of a bar, trying to stay dry in a rain storm...cos they just can't refuse the lure of another cancer stick. And how lovely and clear the air is on the inside.

    oh i see it jamie. when they gather around the doorways of buildings puffing as if their lives depended on that nicotine rush. and the crazy thing is they do believe it does. and it pains me to see our governments so impotent no matter how voluntery it is.

    So, how about non smokers who have to put up with your acrid stench indoors? Do you not think they get frustrated? Bars in the UK are much more pleasant places to be these days believe me. The silent majority have won in the end :)

    For sure, nothing quite as bad a stepping in a dog turd!
    But the point being made, I think, is that surely it's down to each and every individual to clean up the place. If we all took the attitude of 'well one more won't make a difference', then it will never get better. Dog owners need to be more responsible, as do smokers, as does anyone who tosses a crisp packet, or drinks carton, or chewing gum wrapper on the ground.

    i pick up what i can so i can feel good about myself knowing that i made
    the world maybe a little nicer looking for myself and for whomever.
    walking by a beer can on the beach, trails, woods, camp sites, streets is something i can not do.
    oh sure i do but it eats at me and it doesn't feel pleasant for me knowing i
    left it lying there.
    i'd almost be as irresponcible as the person that threw the damn thing on the ground in the first place.

    It irritates me a lot. I guess every smoker out there has no problem with throwing lit cigarettes out the window of their car when driving down the road.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

    well i grew up surrounded by farms in rural Iowa, live stock.
    cows, pigs, horses, fields endless and woods forever.
    dog shit, horse shit, cow shit, hog shit, doesn't bother me in the slightest.
    who gives a shit?
    haha

    i'd rather step in dog shit than throw my cig on the ground.
    shit is natural.

    chadwick, i agree about the litter on trails. i get so mad when i'm hiking and come across some ass-hats garbage.

    and to the op, i hate it when people empty their ENTIRE car ash tray full of butts onto the street/parking lot.

    they have garden hoses to wash off shoes
    and ppl take their shoes off on the porch thingy.
    and it isn't like they go out looking to jump into a pile of shit.
    but if one does happen to walk into a pile, who cares?
    wash it off, scrape it off...get on your way..it is not the end of life...
