I really disagree with you on this one. He is in the minority as far as the percentage of smoking population. The scientific proof is there as to the health dangers of second-hand smoke. Plus he has been added in to a group whose habits or preferences he does not know. To light up in those circumstances is... like I said, he's either ignorant or arrogant.

He needs to ask permission, not put everyone else in the uncomfortable position of having to ask him to stop. It's common sense.
