Considering every single living person on the planet IS going to die at some point from something......death IS unavoidable and cannot be stopped. How a person dies, or from what, is also not in our control, nor up to any one of us to decide for another. In essence, there is no "saving lives". You can delay (maybe), change the cause (maybe), but you cannot prevent death, because as long as there are babies being born, there will be death.
Encourage people to develop healthier safer habits, yes, starting when they are children; but using force to try to get others to only have habits their neighbor approves of is just wrong.
There is no guarantee that the same causes of death attributed to smoking wouldn't still exist if smoking never did. I'm not trying to be argumentative here, just stating a fact that cannot be denied.
