If u think about how many die of hunger and/or thirst. Or if u think u can walk outside right now and get hit by a car …. I dont smoke but let smokers smoke, let them enjoy their cig like some ppl like candy or other things … they not healthy too
yes i understand what you are saying, smoking nothing at all is far better than even the smallest amount, however what im saying is that you cant tar everyone with the same brush…as to say
In US(1997-2001)it’s estimated 438000 premature deaths annually due to smoking. Additionally, smoking-related deaths cost the US $92 billion a year,money that could have been used on treating other people. (increasing the number of indirect deaths from smoking).(Source: usgovinfo.about. com/od/medicalnews/a/smokingcosts.htm)

As stated, smoking IS BAD,but it doesn’t hurt everyone!
Everyone knows someone who has smoked their whole lives without getting ill, however smoking on a REGULAR BASIS increases the RISK for lung cancer, copd, and so on drastically (don’t argue that one, that would just be silly). Now, I don’t agree with gagaflow, most likely you’ll be fine since you smoke so rarely. However, it seems to me that you underestimate the dangers due to “plenty” people you know that aren’t ill (yet). The people you know don’t represent the rest of the US, or the world..
ok, seriously, i had about 10 cigs at a party about 3 / 4 weeks ago and at no point since then have i ever even considered buying or indeed smoking one,,,,,,,its never even crossed my mind. I’m not trying to sound big headed or brag about something like this but all im saying is that maybe not all people get addicted to smoking, albeit i know that the majority of people do end up being addicted to them.

Well,if it is so easy to quit and you aren’t addicted in any way,why don’t you just try to quit for a few months just to make sure?Now, I don’t know you, so I will not judge you or your smoking habits, but statistics show that most people who are “social smokers” can’t quit as easy as they think, due to their psychological addiction.They do not have the need for nicotin that big snokers do,however,they feel something is “missing” if they can’t get their regular smoke at parties etc.
lol, errm nope, i know plenty of people who smoked 20 a day their whole lives annd never developed illness, and then there are people who never have touched a cig and got cancer / heart attacks etc……….smoking say 5 in one night , then not having one for two months or so causes no real problems
agreed!!!, It also pisses me off when people goon about how addictive it is……yes, MANY people are addicted to it, however i know loads of people (myslef included) who have been ’social smokers’ for years and are in no way addicted……..its like saying just becuase you have a pint your going to become an alcoholic
yeah i know it really irritates me these anti smoking ads, i smoke when i head out to the pub the odd time and its like these ads make it out as if as soon as you touch a cig, you get cancer and its like…. no. I just wish they would try smoking before they judge it. Its no where near as bad as other things that are, drinking is far worse than cigs but people just need to have common sense about it

Oh come on. Weed certainly has a better drug effect, but don’t fool yourself that it’s healthy.

I wonder if those ‘fatty deposits’ are good for cooking. Squeeze them into a frying pan with some bacon or french fries, and have a cigar afterward.

@largra I know what you mean. I’m a social smoker & I stone a lot. If I get offered I take it.

If it never crossed your mind… why do you write a command below a anti-smoking video on youtube?!
