Smoking in public places was banned in July 2007
People under 18 can no longer legally buy cigarettes
Smoking is a major cause of heart disease, lung cancer and stroke
Here's a good link:
ash.org/statistics.html
UK Info:
no-smoking.org/jan06/01-05-06-2.h…
440,000 people in the US die each year from smoking related illnesses.
Females who smoke shorten their lifespan an average of 14 years
In youths smoking is seen as a "gateway" drug
A person normally tries 5 to 6 times before successfully quiting
Smokeless tobacco contains nicotine equal to 4 cigarrettes.
(I just studied smoking in my Drug use & Abuse Class — hope I helped)
smoking is addictive
Smoking has some negative health results for many but not for all. The war on smoking resulted when Ronald Reagan's war on drugs did not work. We will all die. Just enjoy whatever you want in life as long as it is deemed to be legal.
Here's a fact you wont find in any anti smoking literature
I am a non smoker so don't have an axe to grind
Two years ago I attended the funeral of a 94 yr old man who died after a fall
Someone remarked "Don't know how he lived to 94 smoking 80( Eighty)
cigarettes a day" That's 3per hr day & night –hardly believable
However I digress.Someone else said "Says a lot for lung cancer stories" which started a general discussion of lung cancer and a surprising fact emerged
NOBODY from 300 mourners actually knew an individual who had had or died from lung cancer most of these were from the older generation
So now a question for you?
You all know the statistics, but who do you know personally that specifically died from LUNG cancer
Makes you think
