Update Animal genocide... Michigan government unleashes armed raids on small pig farmers, forces farmer to shoot all his own pigs. In anticipation of the DNR arriving on the scene, one farmer engaged in what can only be described as a heart-wrenching task of shooting his own pigs, one by one, including baby piglets before the DNR arrived. This was to avoid being arrested as a felon. (CAUTION: This is a very difficult article to read in full. It is an animal and/or property rights minded person's stuff of nightmares, and you will not be able to forget it.)
19 Crazy Things That School Children Are Being Arrested For In America: With each passing year, the difference between America's prisons and America's public schools becomes smaller and smaller.

The Plain Truth About Tobacco. A kind of groupthink exists amongst health professionals on the subject of tobacco, based on statistical over-interpretations amounting to perfect misinterpretations, and leading to a long chain of fallacious reasoning, producing ever more fallacious conclusions. This mindless groupthinking is positively rampant in the professions. Critics - there have always been critics within and without the professions - are long and well acquainted with this sorry state of affairs. It has been called, and is, truly scandalous.

Smoker bashing? Really? If it's so bad, and cigarette smoking IS the absolute death sentence proclaimed far and wide, then my simple question is this: Why is there anyone in the World alive right now over the age of 60? People over the age of 60 were exposed on a daily basis, everywhere (Hospitals, Airplanes, EVERYWHERE) for most of their lives to First, Second, Third, Forth, Twentieth Cigarette Smoke, all the time. So how come they haven't dropped dead from it? Yet people are dropping dead from being overweight, everyday.
HI: Kawika Crowley for Congress. I've been involved with political issues all my adult life, especially in Hilo. In the last six years I have spent thousands of hours lobbying at the State Capitol in representing The Hawaii Bar Owners Assoc. (Representing over 150 small businesses across the state, and employing thousands). We have been trying to push through legislation that would simply allow smoking exemptions for bars requesting one.
UK: Smokers of the World Unite! This is part of the moral crusade against smokers, which logically will lead to a war on drinkers and fast-food eaters as well - Essentially anything that the state does not wish an individual to do!
UK: The absurd persecution of smokers is beginning to stink more than a pub's worth of used ashtrays. Why was it necessary to ban smoking in all pubs and restaurants, even those that wanted to provide a haven for smokers? The pretext for this was that it was important to protect bar and restaurant staff from the dangers of passive smoking. Passive smoking remains no more than an assertion backed by the force of the nanny state. There is no serious evidence that people who do not smoke are harmed by tobacco smoke in the general atmosphere. It is just something we are expected to believe.
