Smoking Not Smoking,Why?

What's your problem? It's their life, their choice if they want to smoke as long as not they're total jerks about it, like the scenario in Andrew's post.

I know,i just posted a picture man. People who fight against smoking(anti-smoking campaings) also know that this is personal stuff,but they still do campaigns.
People who smoke should drink red wine or green tea. Chinese people smoke a lot ( small cancer %)-they drink green tea, French people smoke a lot(small cancer %)-they drink a lot red wine.
This is named Chinese paradox and French paradox.

Groups who do anti-smoking campaigns are against the tobacco corporations mostly, they don't take it personal against the smokers themselves, so don't go around judging smokers. They target the smokers to affect the sales of the corporation, which is unsuccessful, imo.

I've known a lot of person who doesn't drink, doesn't smoke, doesn't do anything that's harmful to their body and ended up dead at a very young age because of accidents and such. How long can a person who doesn't smoke live? We cant tell. But you're right for most part, better not smoke at all than take the risk.

Of course genetics play huge role in cancers(lung cancer),but smoking causes other cancer types too(or makes this process faster). Lung cancer is mostly 90 % caused by smoking. But there are causes when one get's cancer(lung) without harmful lifestyle. My grandpa smoked 60 years ,he died when he was 91. Genetic stuff is very complicated. Of course there are lot's of benefits when you don't smoke,unfortunately smoking is very addictive.

Smoking (everything mentioned above).. Why not? We don't know how long we're going to live, so at least we should enjoy it while we can.

That's the same premise behind Jackass.

Not that there's anything wrong with that. They do those outrageous things so we don't have to.
