My Grandmother is 100 and smoked unfiltered cigarettes until she was 75. Last year she got pnuemonia and fluid in the lungs and she recovered. So much for damaged lungs from smoking. Her only problems now are deafness and failing eyesight so I assume liberals will want to ban sound and light.

Ever noticed how the rise in cancer levels matches very closely the rise in using preservatives in food on a decade by decade basis?

I am not going to say smoking is not a factor - it is. That is pretty settled. It takes your lungs a while to recover when you quit smoking, and inhaling tars and carbon monoxide are not terribly good for you.

I have Pulmonary Fibrosis, a terminal lung diease. Never smoked.

Yup. Anyone with even half a brain would know that the myth that smoking is unhealthy is just a commie-scientist con. Smoking was so healthy for my mother it killed her with lung cancer. Smoking was so healthy for me it gave me COPD. So light em up, folks. Especially in your car with kids inside and with the windows rolled up!

I’m still smoking and will be 80 my next birthday.

Raised 5 healthy kids,all non-smokers.

The entire 2nd hand smoke thing is pure b*******.

Congrats on having a 100 year old grandmother——pretty neat.
