If you believe that bunch of horseshit, I pray for you. What a bland uncontrolled study. You need to pick up on things like:
A British study found that SIDS deaths could be reduced by two-thirds if parents did not smoke.***
Could be reduce...not are reduced.
A U.S. analysis** of over 100 reports on pædiatric diseases concluded that children’s exposure to tobacco smoke is responsible for up to:
Repsonsible for up to, not responsible for. Hell, it could be responsible for all of them, or maybe none.
ETS is causally linked with a number of adverse health effects in children (under 18), including:
Causally linked, meaning not directly, but a possible link.
It's odd, my dad smoked 2 packs a day and I have had none of the mentioned things in this study. I must have superior genetics or, maybe it's just a bunch of bullshit many people are dumb enough to buy. Trust me, there are no actual studies to prove that 2nd hand smoke directly has caused even one death. Why, because there are no controlled studies on this matter. It's all speculation. You could say that all these illnesses are cause by the exhausts from cars in the city. I could make a study showing how people who live in NYC are 3x as likely to get respiratory illness. It's a joke bro, wake the f**k up.
Meltdown..haha 
Their is no real studies because they are all buried...But i will make this very simple. Do you believe that Benzene and Methylene Chloride are carcinogens and Mutagens(cancer causing and gene mutating agents?) They are known to be. No real disputing that one i hope Croatch. But its your choice as whether you "believe" them to be..Its One of the reasons why i give the sucking on the end of a tail pipe analogy. If you were to purchase them to be used in a lab(they do have scientific value as solvents),they are clearly marked as cancer causing agents. They have to be used in hoods or isolaters(glove boxes)in the labs(why do you think that is?)
If you accept that they are , then the answer is simple. Smoke contains these compounds. Chemically and physically, it contains them. They are by-products of the combustion process. They form at a particular temperature during the burning. They are classified under the term "hex" because of the hexgonal Benzene Ring in the molecule. If you look at a gas chromotograph of various peaks in cigarette smoke(remember the peaks in the movie medicine man?)they are usually far toward the right of the graph. Its the hex compounds that are very nasty. These tie into the concept of "free radicals" (tell me you believe in free radicals?) which everyone has heard about. If you inhale smoke, then your putting Benzene, methylene Cloride and other "hex" ring compounds into your lungs,sinuses, throat ect(Just imagine a 12 year olds lung, sinuses, and throat which are still evolving)where they will cause genes with cells to mutate and cause cancer cells to grow..
It doesn't really matter if you believe anything about the smoke. Its whether you are willing to acknowledge that these Benzene ring compounds are as nasty as they are.
Then its a simple matter. And heres the key point. if the natural defenses in a body can continue to fight these mutations and cancer cells, you wont get cancer. This happens all the time. Maybe even in your case. You just don't know yet..Your dad might have already done the damage..Bodies have defenses againts mutations, against cancer cells, against virses, against bacteria, ect. BUT, your natural defense mechanisms in your body can't keep up with destroying these cells before they can start replicating themselves. Then you are fcked. Thats why some get cancer and some don't. Maybe someone can smoke for 20 years and not get cancer...but that doesn't mean they are not giving it to their 12 year old child whose body is still going thru the growing stage...Forget about what i said about the smoke and realize that it has everything to do with the "hex ring"compounds in the smoke. And whether you are willing to acknowledge the chemistry of these compounds. In how these compounds cause genes to mutate and cause cancer cells to grow out of control. And whether your body has the defenses to fight off the cancer cells before they grow out of control. But every person is different. But i guess in your eyes if YOU don't get cancer right now then no one will get cancer ever from these compounds.. Interesting way to live...If i was a smoker and i thought for one second that it was hurting my children in my house or friends driving in my car ect. i certainly wouldn't want that on me...No way...Not when i could walk outside and not hurt a soul...But you keep believeing what you believe...And remember the government was not the ones to throw negitive propaganda at this...It was people like you and me that went out and did the research...
I'm for letting everyone do whatever the fck they want including uses drugs if they like..As long as they are not directly influencing my or anyone elses health...
