Would you rather people smoke or vape? because that’s the only question now that matters. I’m willing to take that chance.

Citations needed.

So Phillip-Morris and the ilk need to stop getting in the way of such studies. There’s a specific campaign by PM right now to outlaw e-cigs and only allow their own, expensive and sub-par disposables. That’s a problem.

It is a smoking cessation tool. Not a hobby. It is like the patch, gum or an inhaler. You need to wean off, and frankly it is absolutely the best tool for such a purpose ever made.

That’s a false equivalence.

It is immensely awesome. It got me to quit smoking after a decade when every other thing I tried including doctor intervention didn’t stick. This is amazing for the sheer fact that it will increase my lifespan and allow me to quit a 200% bad, bad, bad habit that is slowly killing me.

Do you have the same kind of ire directed toward people with heavy perfume/cologne?

Seriously, these things are saving lives and all people seem concerned about is “Oh, I didn’t want to smell raspberry for two seconds!”

Yep. They are. And they’re saving a shitton of lives.

They should really think of that before they give everyone reason to want him to suffer. He’s no better than anyone else in there.

The hospital system in Cincinnati is controlled by two companies: Case Western and the Cincinnati Clinic. Just saying that focusing protests against two systems who control upwards of 12k beds is easier than trying to deal with a more spread-out system. Here is the perfect opportunity to speak about how awful…

I never “followed” anyone. I went back to my own room in my hotel. My only path was to my own rented bed.

Seriously. The rational endpoint of this is us all arming ourselves.

Yep. I was raped. Do anything for me.

Do you understand that I’m a woman who has been raped and you’re desire to overturn my own ideas of self are basally why I don’t trust any victim to properly desire vengeance.

I was raped. Until you can not make me a perpetrator I can’t speak to you. I was raped. And you seem to attach a lot of assumption to the fact that I have a penis I’d cut off if I could because I’m a woman... which is why I was raped by a man. Because peopkle like you can’t just understand that rape is bad regardless.

Because I’m not her and I can’t even begin to expect that my experience i like anyone else’s experience.

The issue is assuming any “right” which is the same as someone else deciding they have a “right” to your own body. He was my boss and he felt entitled to my body.

Right. You assume based on no evidence that I’d just rap;e and pillage. You understand that this mentality is what makes you crazy?

Because embracing a certain victimhood doesn’t benefit the person. It merely mires them in believing that they can’t change.
