"Government efforts to fight cigarette smoking over the past 40 years amount to more than a victory for public health. They are also, as Ted Kings new book makes clear, a cautionary tale of how the state can bully, and ultimately crush, members of a momentarily-unfashionable minority group. Just because you don't smoke doesn't mean you shouldn't be afraid."
- Tucker Carlson | Velvet Glove, Iron Fist. By Christopher Snowdon. Book review by Michael J. McFadden, Mid-Atlantic Regional Director, Citizens Freedom Alliance, Inc. His approach embodies a strong neutrality that will win him friends and enemies on both sides of the issue, but I believe that overall, that neutrality only serves to underscore the damning facts that will eventually bring judgment against what historian Jeremy Richards has called "America's Second Great Prohibition Experiment."

"The strategy of distorting the evidence to serve an
agenda has adverse consequences."
- Michael Marlow |
Hengerland Rock! (Put your dancing shoes on and watch this video!) By Paul Kearns. My protest song about the state of this country. (UK) It is a mickey take of the state of immigration and how we have become second class citizens in our own country. It is not PC in any way shape or form but, as I understand it, I still have the right of free speech. It does not take the rise out of anyone but our pathetic Government. Listen

Talks about smoking bans, freedom, and property rights.
Ban Damage: California Polytechnic, Professor of Economics, Michael Marlow, looks at the question of the real risks of ETS exposure in comparison to several of the negative consequences of smoking bans, and concludes that: "To achieve a political goal, advocates of smoking bans may exaggerate the risk of ETS and deny evidence of economic harm to some businesses. Distorted presentation of epidemiologic and economic evidence has the adverse effect of increasing total health risk, and of undermining the integrity of science."
