No offense taken
and I hope after you read this, you feel the same 
As smokers we know the concequeces of our action and no matter how hard it is to give up , we do still chose to smoke, we do understand the risks of health problems and truthly we wont do anything untill it is too late and we are suffering due to smoking, but we as smokers accept this, it is our responsability no one elses
But lets concentrate on problems such as the addictiveness, of the products we buy, these ones that our damaging our health and making us addicts, Sugar, caffein, the only difference in heroin users and coke a cola is that we buy ours from the local shop for 45p and it is seen as normal. Normal? We all care about our selves dont we, how about sugar? Has anyone seen 'Super Size Me' ?
I felt so high the other day from drinking a can of coke that I started to stagger and felt very light headed, and I am not diabetic, I just dont drink fizzy drinks very often.
All the food colouring that we normally have to clean off our plates with Bleach!!, what is that doing to our insides ?? it might sound funny, but it wasnt too long ago that the same food dyes were pulled of the shlelves for containing something that has been proven to cause cancer
I just belive people need to understand that we will get ill from sugar addiction, caffein addiction as petty as it could poss sound, in reality, smokers arent the ones that are in a oblivious to what helath risks surrounds them, Air and road pollution, factory pollution.
How about all the war around the world? I wouldnt say mother nature is going to come along and purify the air for the ones causing it.
But never mind, what you dont see, dont hurt!
If it doesnt directly affect us, then we dont mind ??
Thank the people that our brave enough to stand up for their rights, because if these people werent around, would we just be still taking about it in our living rooms? or would it be taboo ????
If anyone would like to carry this subject further I will post this message in the vent borad as really this is a cheap smoking at....post, Not personal feelings post.
Could you tell me also if there is already a further thread on the subject of telling smokers to quit because I have further oppinions that I would like to express without sounding offensive or that I am being rude as this post might sound*Wanna Make Loads Of Money*
*I'll Let U know When I Do*

Anita1 this is where you should have posted.A shadowy flight into the dangerous world of a man who does not exist.

the helpless, the powerless, in a world of criminals who operate above the law.0
