Nah, I know that smoking is bad for health, but you have this propaganda around that cigs are reeeally bad while in reality they do just as much demage as coffee or so.

What causes cancer hasn't been discovered yet so let's not point fingers without facts.

I suppose.

But, that lung picture does it for me.

But feel free to believe what ver you want

Completely agree with the lung picture...Dn't really care what colour my lungs are tho.

Anyways, it's pointless as I don't smoke.

If you are around second hand smoke the same can happen. If one person smokes it effects everyone around them.

I think we already established there was no 'same', in this thread.

The following information has been taken from the American Lung Association:

"Secondhand smoke, also know as environmental tobacco smoke (ETS), is a mixture of the smoke given off by the burning end of a cigarette, pipe or cigar and the smoke exhaled from the lungs of smokers. It is involuntarily inhaled by nonsmokers, lingers in the air hours after cigarettes have been extinguished and can cause or exacerbate a wide range of adverse health effects, including cancer, respiratory infections, and asthma.

Secondhand smoke causes approximately 3,400 lung cancer deaths and 22,700-69,600 heart disease deaths in adult nonsmokers in the United States each year."

I think there are more then enough facts, so I'll point my finger at what I wish.

Fuck Mariami is arrogant. After you have read some articles or at least have a quick browse through wiki then don't object something that is commonly accepted as the truth.

Hahaha. Smoking not causing cancer? If that was true, people wouldn't be giving up. But they are... I wonder why...

Jarred · 06-29-2008, 12:53 PM

i hate smokers :]

AshxRose · 06-29-2008, 03:37 PM

Eh. You could buy that one like Nicorette gum, and then be like " Mom, your breath stinks.. you need some gum." and then give her a piece. And Jarred, don't you think that's a little bias since smoking doesn't necessarily change someone's personality. I mean, my sister smokes and she's a great person.
