There are billboards in Maryland paid for by the County Health Departments (read-smokers) about second hand smoke killing children....they drive me crazy. It doesn't go un-noticed by me that there is an abortion clinic less than a mile from one of thoses signs. Tell me, who is killing children?

Partnership for a Tobacco Free Maine are using teenagers on TV ads.  Talking about how they started smoking and now they can't quit, blah blah blah.  Also, one guy says that after smoking for 2-3 months, the teeth become all yellow and snaggly and the fingers stink.

Trying to make smokers sound like personal hygiene has gone down the tubes.  I am highly insulted over these ads.  Just because we smoke doesn't make us bag people living on the streets without a shower handy.  Just makes me sick.

Be careful how you use that phrase, dear........the antis will blame it on your smoking. LOL!!!

All kidding aside, I understand exactly what you are saying. the ads that drive me stark raving nuts are the ones from Philip Morris........if smoking is so bad, why don't they just get out of the tobacco business? their hypocrisy is not lost on me or anyone I know.
