Rarely, in uk does anyone die from asbestos related illness, all lung cancer is due to smoking,even in non smokers,i.e passive smoking. Difference being, smoking deaths\illness are self inflicted..no compensation. Asbestos related death and illness..large compensation payouts. Spot the diference? |

Before Russia, Britain and America outlawed atmospheric testing on August 5, 1963, more than 4,200 kilograms of plutonium had been discharged into the atmosphere. Because we know that less than one microgram (millionth of a single gram) of inhaled plutonium causes terminal lung cancer in a human, we therefore know that your friendly government has lofted 4,200,000,000 (4.2 Billion) lethal doses into the atmosphere, with particle radioactive half-life a minimum of 50,000 years. Link: [link to www.masternewmedia.org] I hear you OP. I don't like that they blame all cancer on smoking if you are a smoker. If you are a smoker and have colon cancer they blame it on your damn smoking. If 50 people had cancer and half of them smoke then it is determined that the half that smoked got cancer as a result of smoking. What about the other half? And why does all get blamed on smoking anyways? Why don't the think about other things people were doing? People who have cancer drank water, drank milk, breathed air, ate veggies, and the list could go on. Everyone who gets cancer have all done the same things but not all of them have smoked. I think it is time to look outside the tobacco box and see if a solid cause can be found. |

Parasites that reproduce in the body in the presence of propyl alcohol is what causes cancer. Smoking does weaken the lungs and the entire body and immune system though. I never forgive and I never forget I am a licensed firearm holder. I will, under protection of law, use lethal force if attacked.  |

| lurker User ID: 6356307 United States03/24/2012 08:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | From my personal experience, alchohol is far worse than smoking. And many smokers drink heavily. Is that considered in the statistics? Of course not. It has been decreed from on high that smoking is the culprit, so any deviation from that edict is blasphemy. Meanwhile, my father, an alchoholic, smoked and died at age 62. His father, who didn't drink, smoked and died at 93. My great-aunt, who didn't drink, smoked and died at 87. My aunt, who didn't drink or smoke, died at 87. Her sister, who didn't drink or smoke, died at 87. Her father, who didn't drink, smoked and died at 87. Face it. Life is dangerous and you ain't gonna' get outta here alive. |
