Quote from: Vidocq
The tobacco bastards never give up. Check out this article from today's Sunday Times: Where There's No Smoke, Altria Hopes There's Fire. Here is the most outrageous bit:
Quote
A series of letters that Altria submitted to the F.D.A. as part of that process argues that the government should, effectively, sign off on the notion that smokeless tobacco products are less harmful that cigarettes -- and that Altria and other companies should be allowed to market them as such to consumers.
We here at KTC are ahead of the curve. We know the dangers of this stuff. It is up to us to get the word out.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention... these fuckers never know when to quit do they?
