Those carbon deposits in city dwellers lungs are harmless, but they show how much industrial pollution they’ve breathed, And coal miner’s lungs aren’t very pretty, either. But those rotten smokers’ lungs that are shown to school kids are phony, like the rest of Nazis’ claptrap.
It’s not possible for a surgeon to tell if a person is a smoker by looking. This information is on the Internet, but I’m not bothering to look it up for you to dispute.

FarmacyMan:

Before you sprain your brain any further, let me inform you I started smoking at 15 and am now 70. My health is good for my age although I don’t water ski any more. Blood pressure 118/70. Retired and active. Question: where do get your Internet time?

Without Big Pharma the medical community would be digging sprouts. Why do you hate the hand that feeds you?

You numbskull, I’m going to give you some
stuff to Google. Look up Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. Look up Gro Harlem Brundtland.
You’ll find out the whole story on Tobacco Nazis and their plans for the human race.
Look up Animal studies/tobacco as well if you want to get smart, although you seem to be happy being an idiot.

The causes of cancer, emphysema and heart disease are unknown. Nonsmokers are afflicted as well. You’re perpetrating an exercise in pure fiction.

I’ve never claimed to be anything but a poster on this blog . More fiction.

I don’t give a rat’s ass whether you want to argue or not. I’ll argue that you should find something else to be fanatical about. My smoking is none of your goddam business.

The argument in the tobacco war is whether dilute secondhand smoke is a killer like the professional bullshitter Richard Carmona says.
You have to have a two digit IQ to believe it or repeat it.

Since there’s obviously no getting thru to you and you’ll continue to believe whatever nonsense you choose to believe, and frankly after reading your latest spewed shit I’m seriously doubting you’re even legit in what you claim to be and frankly believe you’re nothing but a troll. All your arguments are fallacious and you just blatantly claimed I said something I simply never said.

The medical community as a whole (especially most pharmacists) hates BigPharma with a passion. Yet never once have I considered that they are behind some conspiracy to make us all think smoking is bad for us. I present you with linked data to peer reviewed journal articles. You claim to have some study from the 50s that I specifically asked to see and you have yet to produce.

Finally, You say you’ve been smoking for 55 years. Assuming you started at 18, that’d make you…73 years old. I’m pretty impressed that someone who is 73 uses the internet so much (although I suppose you’re “retired” so you’ve got tons of free time on your hands). At best, I’d say you started smoking at 10, making you still 65, with the same comments as above.

You’re obviously not going to listen to reason so I have no reason to continue. But I finish with this. As can be inferred from my name, I am a Pharmacist. Since you seem to be such a fan of anecdotal evidence, I see tons of people each week suffering from one or both: chronic bronchitis and emphysema. Explain to me why 100% (and yes I am fucking serious when I say 100%) Did smoke, or currently smoke? Why do I see people who quit via the patch, gum, or Chantix have serious drops in blood pressure (which has been known as a cause of cardiovascular disease even back in the 50’s when you were in your prime). Yup I saw it so therefore it must be incontestably true. Sorry thats the end. No more arguing. It happens. Period.

Are you trying to be funny? If you suck on the exhaust of a Greyhound bus you’ll be dead in five minutes. And what the hell are you doing in a cadaver lab plucking lungs?

Lungs have the ability to clean themselves of any contaminant. If they didn’t, your pristine lungs would be black from Greyhound exhaust.

I explained why the 50 year old studies are legitimate and today’s are not in a way that
if you dispute it you’re an ass. You don’t care. You’ve been irrevocably brainwashed and can’t process anything but antitobacco propaganda.
Thank goodness you don’t have any political power.

And Smoke-Free, that goes for you too, no brain.

Of all that fanciful nonsense you posted, the
only truth is that the government lies about tobacco.

You’ve been listening to paid liars, swallowed it wholesale and dynamite wouldn’t change it.

But it doesn’t matter what a numbskull like you believes. As I’ve pointed out repeatedly. these matters are governed by law and that’s the province of politicians who follow the biggest bribe.

Should our paths cross , its conceivable that you would squawk about my smoke killing you and making your clothes stink. I don’t care the least about that– I only answer to the law.

Maybe you’re the person to answer a question I’m having trouble getting an answer to: Why aren’t smokers killed by their own secondhand smoke? Let’s keep that answer factual and not made up, OK?
