Tobacco user persecution growing

[Pop23]

I honestly do not know how anyone who raises or sells tobacco for a living can look at themselves in the mirror in the morning.

Your post is pure zealotry.

I keep myself pure. Lips that touch tobacco shall never touch mine!

Have you had your home tested for radon?

How many people that rail against smokers have?

How many know that radon is responsible for more lung cancers than second hand smoke ever has.

Consider this a public service announcement.

Vaping works but even here, the zealots are working to prevent people from doing that.

It is all hysteria...and sadly many Americans fall for it.

 

[DigitalDrifter]

Here in Oregon smoking is prohibited in any establishment. Even bars and bowling alleys.

While never having their homes tested for radon. How many of them let their children sleep in the basement, where radon is concentrated the heaviest.

But, but, but, second hand smoke!!!!!

Yes...to the zealot, he/she can't control radon, but can control smokers. They are sick controlling busy bodies.

I fail to see your obsession with Radon or the point you are trying to make

Is it:

1. Radon is worse than second hand smoke, therefore you should do nothing about second hand smoke until you have eliminated all Radon

2. We need to ban Radon in public areas

3. I am being an ass and attempting to derail this thread

Failure to see his point on radon, only proves you are terribly uninformed or just plain.......

As a zealot, you are unable to see the truth. It is a common trait with zealots

Absolutely, this is about the persecution of smokers. Some of the information used in that persecution is directly attributed to radon. Even the American Cancer Society warns of it's dangers, but the information is often overshadowed because the zealots don't want it stated because it diminishes their hatred of people using a legal product.

Why must it be either or?

We can limit both second hand smoke AND exposure to Radon. Doing one does not stop you from doing the other

Second hand smoke is an intentional act performed by smokers. NOBODY is blowing Radon in your face

Tobacco is a socialist luxury. The user yucks it up then, when they invariably end up sick, the tax payer picks up the tab. One need only to look to Ayn Rand and her smoking and going on the gov't dole at the end of her life

Yet you pass laws requiring the less of the two.

I guess radon must also be a socialist luxury?

World Health Organization says second-hand smoke isn't armful, or so rarely harmful as to be statistically insignificant. A lot of what people believe about smoking is wrong.

Great article exposing the source of such anti-smoking claims and the flawed science behind it,
Scientific Evidence Shows Secondhand Smoke Is No Danger Heartlander Magazine

"In 1992 EPA published its report, "Respiratory Health Effects of Passive Smoking," claiming SHS is a serious public health problem, that it kills approximately 3,000 nonsmoking Americans each year from lung cancer, and that it is a Group A carcinogen (like benzene, asbestos, and radon).

The report has been used by the tobacco-control movement and government agencies, including public health departments, to justify the imposition of thousands of indoor smoking bans in public places.



Flawed Assumptions

EPA's 1992 conclusions are not supported by reliable scientific evidence. The report has been largely discredited and, in 1998, was legally vacated by a federal judge.

Even so, the EPA report was cited in the surgeon general's 2006 report on SHS, where then-Surgeon General Richard Carmona made the absurd claim that there is no risk-free level of exposure to SHS.

For its 1992 report, EPA arbitrarily chose to equate SHS with mainstream (or firsthand) smoke. One of the agency's stated assumptions was that because there is an association between active smoking and lung cancer, there also must be a similar association between SHS and lung cancer.

But the problem posed by SHS is entirely different from that found with mainstream smoke. A well-recognized toxicological principle states, "The dose makes the poison."

Accordingly, we physicians record direct exposure to cigarette smoke by smokers in the medical record as "pack-years smoked" (packs smoked per day times the number of years smoked). A smoking history of around 10 pack-years alerts the physician to search for cigarette-caused illness. But even those nonsmokers with the greatest exposure to SHS probably inhale the equivalent of only a small fraction (around 0.03) of one cigarette per day, which is equivalent to smoking around 10 cigarettes per year."

While no one's claiming cigarette smoking is harmless, the claims about its' harm are greatly exaggerated.

Radon occurs naturally in our environment. Nobody is spewing Radon. When I sold my house, it had to be tested for Radon. Nasty Nanny Government

OK, your turn.
What Radon laws do you want the Government to pass? If the answer is none, there is no reason not to pass public smoking laws

At least as draconian as second had smoke associated laws, or, eliminate both.

Have a nice day

Oh, and it appears the OP didn't think I was hijacking the thread.

Appears you were wrong again.
