You would have to be blind not to see the scietific evidence that smoking is a major health hazard |
I have gone to all the important webpages recomended by the American Medical Industry. I have read all they had to say.
They made a lot of statements and listed a bunch of stats. But presented no real evidence or proof based on real science. They never explain in depth how they came up with that mountain of evidence and the reason why is because it is all wild speculation or facts where they leave out the whole truth. For example a cigarette might contain something that is known to be unhealthy if inhaled, but then they forget to tell you that the cigarette contains such a tiny amout of that chemial that it would really have no affect on you. But they make it sound like it would.
Example: If you were inside a burning house and got an overdose of smoke you could die. that does not mean you would die because you inhaled smoke from a cigarette. Or a mega dose of a chemical could cause a major health problem for you, but a teenie weenie (less then a drop) of that same chemical can be consumed without doing a thing to change your health. But they fail to mention that the amount of that bad chemical is in a nearly un-noticable amount in the product under question here.
evidence my foot! You must not confuse scare tactics with sound factural evidence of solid proof. We could say worse things about 90 percent of the prescription drugs those medical experts are selling the population. And I do not hear you crying about that.
Fact is, they made a mountian of evidence out of a mole hill, and that mole hill was made out of really poor science. I would compare it with the mountain of evidence they had that proved that Saddam had weapons of mass distruction. Now we know it was all phoney evidence.
The big mountain is just a lot of repeated brainwashing over the media.
Cigarettes are not weapons of mass murder.
