Smokin'! Somebody stop them!

Well, in regards to Smoking, I personally and strongly express that smoking is bad, as we all know it, that it's an addiction. Yeah I've had a few drags myself in the past and I must say there was no fascination of inhaling the fumes at all!

Majority of the people know that the 'fags' that smokers inhale contains nicotine, which is a harmful drug that affects your health, not only that it contains other chemicals. But still they disregard the facts!
You see horrendous images on cigarette boxes such as the one shown here, doesn't it make your stomach churn to see what smoking can do to YOU?

What I find despicable is pregnant women smoking, when they are fully aware of the harmful affects it has on the unborn. Prime examples: Kerry Katona & Britney Spears.



Why isn't the Government emphasising to the nation on how BAD this is?

Should the Government introduce a new law, where pregnant women are registered and tested every month, if nicotine is found in the bloodstream, they should be automatically be fined??
It would be ideal, as money dominates this world and with a new arrival on the way, money is foremost prominent.

Perhaps, the Government should set up a more immutable and permanent smoking cessation to tackle their addiction through these precious moments of carrying a life in their wombs.
