Unlike the anti-smoker zealots, Freedom to Choose are able to show you real casualties. Real murders, real beatings, real bodies.
We have yet to see any of the mythical corpses they wail on about.
The casualty in our linked article has a name. He is called Sergio Miranda. He is a productive, intelligent member of society. He is a teacher. His family are sat by his bedside praying for his recovery from a gunshot wound.
Sergio was shot in the chest by thugs across the road from the school that Sergio teaches at. Sergio did not want to cross the street to smoke a cigarette. Sergio was forced to do so by a shallow-minded, PC, risk-averse, scientifically ignorant school board who vetoed smoking on school property.
Sergio was shot because of this mindless ordinance, and for no other reason. Had he been allowed to smoke on school property, he would be reporting to school to teach his class today.
Instead, he lies in a hospital bed, fighting for his life.
