hmmm i don't know?? I mean they can be proving a point that tobacco companies are liars in everything they say or they can be telling the truth to a certain extent but are going over board with it.

Here's what I found on the pros and cons with drinking milk...

PROS:
  • Calcium, which is important for healthy bones, is abundant in milk and dairy products. Although it's possible to get ample calcium without milk, it does take some careful planning. Additionally, the calcium in milk is well absorbed by the digestive tract because the vitamin D and lactose found in milk facilitate calcium absorption.
  • Skim milk and products made from skim milk are very low in fat and cholesterol, and contain a complete source of protein.
  • Milk is also a good source of phosphorous, magnesium, vitamin A, vitamin D, and riboflavin (a B vitamin).
CONS:
  • Whole milk, or anything made of whole milk, is high in saturated fat, which can increase cholesterol level.
  • Milk is a common cause of food allergy (allergy to milk protein).
  • Many people, especially adults, lack the enzyme to digest lactose (milk sugar). This is called lactose intolerance, which causes bloating, gas, and diarrhea.
  • Milk (and meat for that matter) may contain the antibiotics given to the animal before slaughter. It has been argued that when humans then eat the dairy or meat products, they absorb the antibiotics, potentially allowing for bacteria harmful to humans to become more resistant to these antibiotics. The consequence is that when antibiotics are prescribed, they may not be as effective at killing the bacteria as they once were.u

Thats what I was thinking after thinking about it for a while. I think they might be trying to say that tobacco companies are lying, so they are going to the extreme and being sarcastic by saying that milk is worse for you then 2nd hand smoke. Thats why at the end of the video hes picking up crap? Hmmmm

I don't care if people smoke or not. Tobacco is legal. These commercials are almost as retarded as the "above the influence" ones.

Yeah, some people dont care if other people smoke. Im not one... I used to smoke years ago...and thankfully I quit. Now I cant stand it when I try to go inside a store or something and theres people hanging around outside smoking ciggeretes. Then for the rest of the day I stink like smoke, and me or my kids had to walk thru their cloud of smoke and breathe in their nasty crap just so I can go shopping.

I don't care if people smoke, just not around me. Just as they should have the right to smoke, I should have the right not to inhale their smoke. It should be banned from inside ANYTHING. However, I live in a state where tobacco has made it rich so the legislators will never let this happen here. Time to move.

In NJ they banned it from indoors EVERYWHERE. That was one NJ law that I actually liked. In TN however, I have to get used to it all over again :( Hopefully sometime, they will put that law in effect here!

you cant bash smoking in my section get out!!! lol Im kidding
I understand where you are coming from and I think I am a curtious smoker in the fact that if others are annoyed by my smoking I will not do it around them, but I think there are also way to many people that go off the deep end where this subject is concered, and make a far bigger issue out of it for themselves then it needs to be. Dont forget we do live in America and it is legal and because some dont like it or its not for you its not really fair for you to impose a bunch of restrictions on me as well as its not fair for me to do it in your face.

It is legal in some spots...but in NJ it is illegal to smoke indoors like malls, bowling, etc. I think its one of the few states that have that law. Its cool that you are a curtious smoker. Some people arnt tho... and for those of us that dont smoke...it really sucks. :(

Dont Drink your milk - Milk is Bad

Processing Is the Problem

Dr Joseph Mercola

The path that transforms healthy milk products into allergens and carcinogens begins with modern feeding methods that substitute high-protein, soy-based feeds for fresh green grass and breeding methods to produce cows with abnormally large pituitary glands so that they produce three times more milk than the old fashioned scrub cow. These cows need antibiotics to keep them well.
Their milk is then pasteurized so that all valu ..... click above link to read more if you are interested.
