        I love this country. You could ban cigarettes but instead you force the maker of cigarettes to tell you not to buy their killer product. Nice.

        My neighbor just died of multi-organ cancer that started in her lungs.. She smoked like a chimney. Her choice, but she likely started in the 1960s... Sad.

        umm their ads are going to be 'anti-smoking,' but psychologically encouraging people to smoke, duh. why would you have a cigarette company make an anti smoking ad?!

        You know, a few years ago i went through the public federal budget and $118 million of taxpayer dollars were set aside each year in the case big tobacco needed a bailout. Fucking corrupt.

        I don't even watch tv. Can't stand ANY of the commercials. If kids didn't watch so much tv I would think so many probably wouldn 't be influenced to start smoking. I could be wrong. Granted, today, shows/movies don't show everyone smoking away like they did when I was young.

        I grew up seeing the “smoking is hazardous to your health” on packs of cigarettes. What was the meaning of hazardous back then? I’m talking the 70’s. Delay? Please. All you have to say to me is something is hazardous and I get it quick.

        Honestly if people want to smoke then let them. Let them kill themselves slowly and painfully
