You will therefore agree that any doctor that fails to administer aid to a smoker... be it the patch, chewing gum, hypnotheraphy or behavioural theraphy is failing their patients.

And every city, county and state that uses Tobacco tax revenues has blood on its hands and should immediately stop accepting such revenues.

You must also accept that it is the duty of all non- smokers to ease smokers to the path of righteous non smoking
by providing adequate facilities such as two week intensive
re-hab programs and in care facilities.

The care and concern non-smokers have for smokers has reached new heights, please accept it as you would any other drug addiction, do not condemn them but reach out to them, be vocal when it comes to utilizing the resources of the medical world and reject any fiscal returns gained from this horrendous habit.

Care for the smoker as you would care for an AIDS victim, cherish them, love them, for remember it is not the person but the drug.

Ouch. Vicious sarcasm, and brutally effective.

Nah, I'm a conservative. Two words.

Cold Turkey.

Here's a letter a friend of mine wrote the NYC council. I like it and I'm sure finnie, minnie and cinnie (what does Gabz call them? The three mousytears?) agree completely.

It's about time someone put an end to those filty polluters, but Hizzoner doesn't go far enough.

Making them huddle in groups outside is OK, but that only works when they're actually smoking. It'd be more effective to make them wear some sort of identification ALL the time, maybe a yellow hexagonal star thingy or something.

Everybody knows second-hand smoking is a hazard to society at large, and we've had enough - it's time to segregate this antisocial group from civilization completely. I'm thinking camps here, camps with barbed wire and machine-gun posts. I'll bet we could round up enough railway cars to make getting them there easier. Here they can work to give up their filthy addiction - work builds character, dontcha know...

(Well, it sounded better in German, but you get my drift.)

Love the sarcasm (ha ha)...but you forgot the ultimate. If it is sooooo bad why is tobacco still legal?
