Notice the word "may." Yeah right. My grandmother chain smoked 4 packs a day and lived to be 134. Don't these people know this is the great Constitutional question of the 21st century? Typical hysterical propoganda by nanny-Nazi non-nico hooked busybodies. We all have to die sometime. Why not prematurely enjoying the great taste of a cigarette? (Yes I've had a bellyful of these smoker's rights pieces passing as some property rights issue).

Oxygen in deadly. 100% of people who breath will die this century.

This lie was already discussed yesterday. Do a search before you post your anit-tobacco spam.

[The Old Hoosier]

They get these numbers because they count any death of a smoker as a "smoking death." It's total BS.

[TexasCajun]

But not deadly enough to outlaw!

Thank you for your tax-dollars in advance.

Yesterday's anti-smoking propaganda thread

[DTogo]

Between all the issues that are going to kill billions, guess we don't have to worry about over-population any more!

Global warming, tobacco, terrorism, famine, disease, an asteroid, George Bush, etc...

[teenyelliott]

I think we should make anything that might harm an individual illegal.

Take all choices away, for the greater good.

[tvguru]

134?

[Paisan]

and more than half of them will die from the habit...

My philosophy is simple. Life causes death. Half those smokers won't die - they ALL will die.

[mysterio]

Typical hysterical propoganda by nanny-Nazi non-nico hooked busybodies.

And you are their king.

[M Kehoe]

Tobacco, global warming, bird flu, etc., it doesn't matter, nobody gets off this planet alive.

Amen...........

As you rightly pointed out - we trashed this one yesterday - I'm not going to disturb my list for a rehash of the ninnies.........

Do a search before you post your anit-tobacco

Did search under "smoking". Found nothing. But what are you saying, they are putting lice eggs in tobacco? (nits) That kind of spam spreading might ruin the reputation of fine cigarette companies.

[newgeezer]

Search?

[colinhester]

Yeap, get rid of dihydrogen monoxide as well.

It seems to me that when someone wants to commit suicide, what they DON'T do is go into the garage and light one up.

They often go into the garage, start the car and do it that way...

Wonder which is worse? Car exhaust is obviously quicker.

2.5 billion smoke and half will die from smoking does that mean the other half are immortal?

"Did search under "smoking". Found nothing. But what are you saying, they are putting lice eggs in tobacco? (nits) That kind of spam spreading might ruin the reputation of fine cigarette companies"

So don't smoke and leave the rest of us alone to kill ourselves as we like. Its called "freedom".
