Big Tobacco Attempts to Impede Progress on Illicit Trade

WHAT:

Passive smoking in childhood triples lung cancer risk

Cancerfacts.com reports: Passive smoking in childhood can triple lung cancer risk

In a supremely unshocking study, researchers have concluded that parents who smoke are making it up to three times more likely that thier kids will get lung cancer. The result should come as no surprise. The only surprise left today is that there are so many German parents who think nothing of smoking in the house, in the car, in the restaurant with their kids. It means nothing to them that they are damaging their childrens’ lungs and health. It means nothing to them that they are being horribly irresponsible role models.

Smokers: you stink.
