W/NW smoking

[MatthewThompson]

Photos of addicts to a filthy and lethal habit, that shouldn't be glamorised in any way. If this, why not a thread on taking crack cocaine...?

Indeed. We should round up the smokers and sent them to be reeducated.

I agree with Bob, you have every right to avoid this thread in the same way you can choose not to smoke.

A photo needn't glamorise its subject Bill.
Why don't you post some images that portray it in a less positive light?

Better this than play the moral censorship card favoured by so many these days.

In all seriousness, Bob, I would neither waste the film nor voluntarily be anywhere near a smoker feeding their addiction. It's not "moral censorship" it's a straightforward expression of revulsion.

Regards,

Bill

I always wish I'd stayed around to see who the single white rose was for.

If we think along those lines, perhaps we should not be posting pics of homeless people, anything with alcohol in it or fast cars.

People know how bad smoking is, and, why not a thread on crack cocaine?

In any case:

Guess which lungs belonged to a smoker.

Unfortunately, people mind (a whole lot) when you take pictures of them doing illegal things like cocaine and crack. Add to that the fact that they are already completely crazy from the drugs they just inhaled and you have a recipe for a fist in the face.

Too bad, really.

If anyone wants to to discuss the issue of smoking fine ... but not in this thread ... it's about images. (please)

And BillP ... you started the rot!

It doesn't matter. Nobody's going to survive having their lungs removed and put in a bag!

Don't worry - I'll leave you to it.

I'd support a coke thread.

Just tell them you're Larry Clark or Nan Goldin (whichever's more believable)

I may have shown this before but it will probably always be my favourite smoking shot.
