And why should we do jack shit about smoking? They make the choice, they live with it.

1. There's second-hand smoke, which has just been shown to increase the risk of breast cancer, and is already known to be very unfair to the children of smokers, often giving them lifetime asthma. My sister's boyfriend is a smoker, and yes, I'm concerned.

3. Smokers are a giant burden on the healthcare system. Many are able to survive past sixty-five, with major "complications", and they're probably the biggest reason why Medicare is fucked.

2. Anything that burns pollutes. Granted, cars and cows are greater sources, but we actually need those. Well, we just need cows for milk, but we might as well eat them too, because they're delicious. Not only is smoking unnecessary, it is harmful.

4. It's a waste of paper, and many other reasons that I don't feel like naming right now.

Ah, yes. Gun Control does work. That's why homicide ratings have been going up in places like Britian, France, and the US!

Like most Americans, I just want better background checks-for now. In time, it would be nice if we could get rid of all of the automatic and concealable weapons. If I'm going to fight someone who's pissing me off, I don't want to have to worry about him having a gun.
