Feb. 7, 2008 -- The World Health Organization (WHO) today warned that 1 billion people worldwide could die of tobacco-related causes this century unless "urgent action" is taken.
So 3 alleged deaths and a massive scare.........1 billion deaths and they make tobacco makers put a little warning label on the package.
Wouldn't it be crazy if those that died while driving a Yota, were on their way to buy cigarettes, naked, had a 12 pack of beer next to their BigMac w/fries, being shot at while looking for the 9mm that fell next to the mold covered bottle of Oxycontin ..............hey
Zero deaths from marijuana...........Pot is safe. Smoke pot and use public transportation.
You should be president...
