What it really comes down to, and Raymond touched on it in another post, everybody is responsible for their own actions. Nothing more, nothing less. If you choose to smoke, don't come crying to me when half your lung is gone. When you spill HOT coffee in your lap, don't come crying to me when you burn yourself. When you kill someone with a gun, don't come crying to me about how the gun manufacturer made you do it or how a movie made you violent. You reap what you sow. Be responsible, be accountable for your actions.
BTW - I love this list, it's so great seeing everybodies perspectives and it's so funny how we get started on one topic and it always shifts into something else. Isn't freedom great?!!

No, you are agreeing with me - you just don't see it. ;) I said that cig companies SHOULD be punished for any lies that they spread.... however, people who started smoking yesterday, for example, certainly should not expect to be able to sue the cig companies once they get sick. -RC [deletia] > > ^_^ > > -Gel > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Raymond Camden" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > > > While the cig companies should be punished for hiding stuff... how > > long has it been that people have known that smoking is bad > for your > > health?
