Leonard Nimoy: Smoking Is Illogical

Posted by timothy on from the even-with-little-dollar-signs-on-the-tube dept.

An anonymous reader writes "My boyhood hero, actor Leonard Nimoy, has developed lung disease. To those still smoking and in the grips of marketing induced denial, he says 'quit now.' Small acts of goodness make the universe a better place."

    Why should she? Freedom means free to make bad choices the one who needs help is you. Let people make their own decisions good or bad, Help only when asked and try to guide but Never! Never impose your ideals of whats right and wrong on another.

    Freedom doesn't mean the freedom to harm other people. Drug addicts do harm other people. This is why most drugs are illegal unless proscribed, because they harm far more people than just those taking them.
