Fate of Calif. Smoker's Lawsuit Rests With State High Court

A federal appeals court has certified two questions to the California Supreme Court in order to determine whether a woman who developed lung cancer allegedly from years of smoking waited too long to sue tobacco manufacturers.

Hello--The tobacco drug company makes their cigarettes to burn hotter and with greater addictive power. They are not regulated and neither should the timing of this lawsuit.
The courts should see that time is of the essences for all humans that have the misfortune to be even one million miles near any type of tobacco.

California has the smoggiest cities in the country. One car puts out millions of times the same stuff as a cigarette every .8 of a mile. I have sat in their traffic jams and my eyes watered, my lungs hurt and my throat got sore. I would think pollution from cars would cause more damage than cigarettes as car exhaust can kill in minutes.

As far as health warnings, they were around in the 50s. Heck Nazi Germany had all kinds of bans on smoking. They showed in the schools and on tv black lungs that were supposedly from smokers. Later it turned out to be miner's lungs.
This is Just a bunch of crap funded by the drug companies. Common sense tells you that the ones making money off the bans and taxes will lie to make more money and gain more control. Time better spent is to protect your 2nd amendment rights congress is about to take away. 2nd amendment rights go a war will start here.
