Question:

Does anyone else think that the constant stream of anti smoking messages in the media is too much to cope with

this is for non smokers too.

Why should anyone have to put up with this barrage?


Answers:

The smoking ones drive me batty because they're so repetitive.The anti-drug ones get my goat because they're all aimed toward marijuana and never mention the drugs that actually ruin your life. Marijuana is a lot less dangerous than alcohol...and yet there aren't idiotic commercials every 5 seconds about how alcohol kills and destroys lives...even though everywhere you look in high schools and colleges you can see the remnants of kids who didn't figure it out in time. And to top it all off they're all futile. You can't expect a 30 second commercial spot played over and over again to erase the constant barrage of "cool and sexy" drug/alcohol/smoking indoctrination that is pervasive. I hate smoking...it's disgusting and just being around a lone smoker will give me a migraine and a residual headache for days...but seeing someone in jeans and a leather jacket or fishnets and lace with a cigarette hanging from their fingers still turns me on. You can't program society to be attracted to something and then expect to combat that life long indoctrination with little "its not good we swear"s inserted in randomly. You want it to stop then you have to remove it from the mainstream popular media.
