I am a non-smoker, but am appalled at the tactics of the anti- smoking bullies, particularly their ignorance and dishonesty. Yes, Suse, contrary to your baseless assertion, they are the uninformed and misinformed, whether or not they are intelligent.
My father was a heavy smoker from a young age, and never had a heart problem. His brother was a non-smoker, and died of a heart attack. One of my brothers was a non-smoker, and died of a heart attack. I had open heart surgery. Another brother smokes heavily, and has had no heart problem. Yet I constantly see TV ads warning that smoking causes heart attack. In my own experience this is untrue.
