Then you believe the tobacco companies are culpable in the deaths of millions of smokers? I'd say the smokers, knowing the risks, took the chance themselves. I know one smoker who claims that she's not worried, if she gets something she'll sue.... Culpability is determined by the user. If I buy a pack of cigarettes, one assumes it is to smoke them. But I may not. In some countries, it is as valuable as currency. Providing the means of demise is not the same as committing the act. In fact, we often provide ourselves with products and services that are dangerous, yet the vast majority of people use them safely. That a few people choose not to is no reason to alter the availability.
