Anti-smoking attack on Hollywood

Politicians from 32 US states have signed a petition urging movie bosses to add anti-smoking public service announcements to all DVD releases featuring stars lighting up. America's National Association of Attorneys General has been fighting for new anti-smoking legislation in Hollywood for many years, previously suggesting all films with smoking scenes should be released with a restrictive R rating.

That is rediculous.. If people want to smoke they should be able to smoke. And if people want to make movies where actors smoke they should be able to. I find it amusing that all these "Liberal" democracies are imposing these bans.. So much for democracy. (I don't smoke, by the way..)

Absolutely surreal!
When even G rated films routinely show scenes of gross violence and murder.

This is going beyond mass-hysteria, into mass-insanity.
