Licenced to Kill

Tobacco Giants and Government killing even more people

The Government really should be appallingly ashamed of itself now in 2007. A few months ago British American Tobacco announced more increases in sales with the cynical eye of a cold hearted killer as it predicts that the number of smokers over the next ten years will hold steady at around 1 billion. I feel feel this is a disgraceful and alarming confirmation that hypocritical Government Smoking policy is a total ass. The governments own target is for a reduction in smoking of 2% by the year 2010. These figures and the corporate boasts from the gloating tobacco manufacturers only fuel the case that it is highly unlikely that there will be anywhere near that kind of reduction given current smoking policy.

How long are the people going to allow the fat cat Murderers of the Tobacco companies to profit from the deaths of thousands upon thousands of people every year? And you can keep your freedom of choice arguments where they belong. Tobacco is the only over the counter product sold that kills people when used as intended. Would the freedom of choice brigade advocate allowing the sale of crack cocaine or heroin behind the supermarket checkouts? As far as I can see there is not a lot of difference between selling those drugs and tobacco. And if you're in the mindset that, 'ok everybody should be able to do what they like to themselves' then where does it stop? Why is euthanasia not allowed? Who knows, but at the end of the day smokers are killing themselves ...albeit slowly and apparently helplessly, leaving the misery and heartache of their families behind.

I am seriously considering fronting a campaign for a total ban on the sale of tobacco. If you would be prepared to support such a campaign and help save the lives of thousands of people leave your name and comments. It would drastically reduce the number of smokers and therefore save lives because at present 350 people die every day in the UK from smoking. That’s over six times the amount killed by the 7/7 terrorists on the underground, look at the fuss the Government make in response to those deaths. Any members of 'Forest', the oxymoronicly named pro smoking action group, laughingly backed by Tobacco manufacturers, can go take a hike. Likening yourselves to a clean green fresh thing like a forest... pathetic! My mother died as a result of smoking over twenty years ago and as far as I can tell many thousands of mothers have died since because the Government has refused to show a bit of spunk and do what the large majority of people really want. If a total ban started today we would have saved 2450 lives in the UK by this time next week. So I say to you Mr Paul Adams boss of B.A.T. I hope you sleep well tonight given that your company has just killed another 350 people in the UK, God knows how many in the US and thousands all over the world. And George Bush and Tony Blair think Bin Laden is the problem.....Nobody in the world including the most well known dictators in history have killed more people than your company!

If you want help stopping please don't let them fool you into thinking it's hard to stop, find out how to do it easily.

There are many ways to stop easily using the power of the mind. I found stopping easy when I went for private treatment with Nigel Bird at his practice. He now has a website http://www.12free.org/ where he can be contacted and an on line system for helping smokers to quit.

Much love
