    The only thing that hurts this scene is the knowledge that Alan smokes cigars.

    They can’t do anything about the man that’s got cancer when he knows smoking cause cancer so that is his fault everyone knows lung cancer is mostly caused by smoking he still chose to smoke it so it’s his own fault but they can do something else like ban smoking and hold the corporations accountable after all they are advertising them and telling kids that smoking is cool and fun and putting more chemicals in them to make them more addicting

    Out of curiosity I went to see much nicotine was in a modern cigarette. I smoked from 2001 to 2013. I've been vaping since. The liquid that I vape has 6mg per 100ml - 100ml of liquid will last me about four weeks. A single cigarette - a conservative estimate - has 1mg of nicotine in it (PubMedCentral, as referenced in Medical News Today (2019)). A twenty a day smoker would get 20mg of nicotine a day. 560mg of nicotine every four weeks.

    If big tobacco was making $12 Billion dollars a year in profits, and I was Alan Shore, I would have also presented evidence as well as told the jury in my closing how much it is costing the country at large, as well as how much it is costing each person regardless if they smoke or not, to fight all the cancers/diseases brought on by smoking cigarettes. I would also mention that without big tobacco, families overall would have more money to spend because no one is buying cigarettes, and those that make a living off of big tobacco would need to find other employment opportunities - which is a win/win situation.

    Incredible speech! I lost both parents to cigarettes. My mom started smoking at 15 and died of emphysema at 64. My dad passed away at 71 of Cancer caused by cigarettes. Both were horrible deaths. 2 reasons why I never smoked. I hated the smell and taste and the thought of losing my life to such a horrible habit.

    "How can that be?" At the risk of starting a race debate here, we all have a sense of how, and I'll say it. If the person who invented cigarettes was a nappy-haired black man from podunk USA they would be so illegal it would be ridiculous. And as I say that, keep in mind that the only drugs that are really illegal, come from brown people or brown countries. You can't even get a Cuban cigar, and they created a cancer treatment that, lo and behold, was rejected by the US.
