Answer 1

i hate them because they are FALSE, they are based on the "junk science" concept.

Junk Science
How harmful is smoking to smokers? Public health advocates who claim one out of every three, or even one out of every two, smokers will die from a smoking-related illness are grossly exaggerating the real threat. The actual odds of a smoker dying from smoking before the age of 75 are about 1 in 12. In other words, 11 out of 12 life-long smokers don’t die before the age of 75 from a smoking-related disease.

n a 1998 article titled “Lies, Damned Lies, and 400,000 Smoking-related Deaths,” Levy and Marimont showed how removing diseases for which a link between smoking and mortality has been alleged but not proven cuts the hypothetical number of smoking-related fatalities in half. Replacing an unrealistically low death rate for never-smokers with the real fatality rate cuts the number by a third.

Controlling for “confounding factors”—such as the fact that smokers tend to exercise less, drink more, and accept high-risk jobs—reduces the estimated number of deaths by about half again. Instead of 400,000 smoking-related deaths a year, Levy and Marimont estimate the number to be around 100,000.

This would place the lifetime odds of dying from smoking at 6 to 1 (45 million smokers divided by 100,000 deaths per year x 75 years), rather than 3 to 1. However, about half (45 percent) of all smoking-related deaths occur at age 75 or higher. Calling these deaths “premature” is stretching common usage of the word. The odds of a life-long smoker dying prematurely of a smoking-related disease, then, are about 12 to 1.

I love anti-cigarette ads. Smoking has got to be just about the stupidest thing that a person can do. There is no point to it, it makes you stink, is unattractive, and it is dangerous. It is imperative for young people to understand the peril and foolishness of smoking, hence the ads. If someone wants to start or continue smoking anyway, that is there problem, but at the very least it is necessary to get the word out on why smoking is a bad habit. At least then when smokers are dying horrendous deaths from lung cancer, black lung, or emphysema, they can't say no one told them so.

Answer 4

Well, ciggs are ugly. Look at what they do to you! My grandpa died from Lung Cancer. And you know what? He wasn't a smoker. His co-worker smoked. My grandpa got Lung Cancer from second hand smoke. And it wasn't his fault. Not only is it a hazard to your health, it's a hazard to the enviroment. I see ciggs everywhere on the ground and in plants and you can also smell the smoke in the air. We're polluting the Earth to a point of no return!
