Guest guest Posted September 14, 2005 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 Exactly, the truth came out and they had to admit it. That isn’t happening with breast implants — yet. Kenda If you recall, did not wilingly acknowledge the dangers of cigarettes. It was only after a panel of tobacco execs testified on film, and then evidence was found that disputed their claims that 'yes I believe cigarettes are safe'. So, in this sense, there is a parallel. The lying, deceitful execs who will do anything at any expense to protect their product...yep, they are the same slimebags. BUt I agree with Lea that it is not as easy as removing a cigarette from one's mouth (not that that is easy, when the tobacco deliberately made cigarettes more addictive). Still, it is a heck of a lot easier to quit smoking than it is to subject oneself to surgery again and again... > If he wants to compare implants to cigarettes, that’s just fine.
