Smokers' Rights

[GateandGarden]

I meant to post this earlier but forgot I had it in my bookbag. I found this exact message tacked onto a bulletin board at my university and I wanted to share it with y'all and ask for opinions.

I'm sure you've heard the phrase "Secondhand smoke kills." This has been someting that anti-tobacco campaigns across the world have been using to deny smokers their rights. However, there is no scientific evidence to prove that secondhand smoke poses a health threat. Data proving that smokers themselves are exposed to threats to their health are hardly creditable. This causes you to ask, "If that statement is true, than why do anti-tobacco campaigns exist?" The answer is simple. There's big money to be had in these campaigns, simply because anti-smoking campaigns are funded by pharmaceutical companies to promote their own quit-smoking products. Additionally, if people feel that smoking has made them ill, they'll simply buy more of their pharmaceuticals. It's that simple. Ban smoking, and we'll turn to "tobacco replacement items." We won't stand for it. It is time for all of us to realize that we are being cheated and lied to.

Don't let them take YOUR rights! Get involved now.
