Message | Have you ever lost someone to lung cancer? Have you ever been forced to sit and stare out the window, watching your idol kill themselves slowly...painfully? Have you ever sat by their hospital bed watching them get slowly weaker and weaker due to kemo? I have. Allowing the sale of cigarettes is immoral. How can you so ideally by and let these people die? |

Message | We understand the deep pain that a loved ones choices can have. However we believe that it is ultimately that individuals decision. In our opinion prohibition won't stop people from smoking but instead create barriers to individuals with diseases related to smoking to seek treatment. We would love to work with the FPH on creating public awareness campaigns about the dangers of smoking and create a tax to fund prevention measures for the treatment of nicotine and other addictive substances. |
