The political agends of these "environmentalist" cults *permiates all

came home crying because the teacher told the kid mom was going to die
soon because she smoked, then showed these 5th graders horrible
pictures of lung damage and such...

Well, it's true. Sure, someone can point to an exception like their granny
who smoked 2 packs of Camels a day and lived to be 98. But, exceptions mean
nothing in the face of overwhelming statistics.
