where they show that mother of two girls and she's in a hospital. And it says, "Cigarettes killed their mother"
Man that bugs me so much.. ya know? It's like, what the fuck.. she put the damn things in her mouth and smoked them, she killed herself!!! They all act like she's completely innocent and blame the cigarettes 
Not that all those other drug commercials don't bug me as well... cus they do very much also. They're all rediculous, but i dunno, I just felt like saying something cus i keep seeing this more than the others now.

I like that family guy episode where Peter becomes a tobacco lobbyist. Near the end some guy says, "Ciggarettes killed my father... and raped my mother." It was pretty funny.
But I understand what you mean. In Alberta they have a really good commercial where some kids are escaping a buring house. They're coughing and crawling around trying to escape, but there's no fire just a lot of smoke.
Finally they get out and look inside, the smoke is coming from their parents cigarettes. Thought is was well done.

yeah well cig companies used to be all about addicting as many people as possible through advertising.
so they hooked her, took her money, and pumped her full of death. Just like they hooked YOU muhahahaaahahahahaa!!
They didn't only kill her, they spent millions to do it.

What do you expect? Our country is ruled by the bible, which tells us that all of our problems are caused, not by ourselves, but by some guy named "Satan".
