ILLEGAL DRUGS which are illegal because they are harmfull and should not be taken unless legal or perhaps under the direction of a medical doctor.

Ah, the old if it's illegal it must be harmful argument. Do you realize that 400,000 people die every year because of tobacco? Your circular logic has sprung a leak and will someday fall flat.

70% of all violent crime involves illegal drug addicts! You can't avoid the central issue of the problem with drug addiction of all kinds. It is illegal to be drunk and be with your kids alone or behind the wheel of a car.

I also agree that smoking kills the user and perhaps those they blow smoke on. Here in CA we love the no smoking laws. It smells real nice when you go out to eat now.
Smokers don't lose their mind or cause death by their driving and so forth. I do think a future issue for smokers will be that insurance companys won't cover their health for cancer in the future. Nobody can afford the cancer it causes.

Not smoking is a healthy and good thing Dakmar.
