WHY ON EARTH SMOKERS TARGETTED WHILE DRUNKARDS WANDER SCOTT FREE
Was it prudent to ban smoking when drinking is freely allowed
If turn the newspapers you would daily, without any exception, observe that maximum number of deaths is caused by liquor than passive smoking - but who cares about this
We hear there has been deaths caused by adulterated drinks like arrack etc and the toll this claims is on a higher side than the cigarettes moreover cigarettes may affect an individual - bad alright - but drinks affect families and make them stray on the roads these were the ones whom we see daily lying - the so called நாட்டின் குடிமகன் - on the road
Consuming liquor they drive vehicles into the platforms and on pedestrians who either walk on the road or sleep on them We have a case to the point where one of our friends who was left at a hotel by a colleague of his for lunch shockingly heard in less than an hour that the man who went for lunch was no more Unfortunately, he while on his return - ofcourse walking on the street - was hit by a speeding Pulsar - both the driver and the pillion were totally drunk- and laid his life on the spot WAS THIS HIS MISTAKE TO HAVE WALKED ON THE ROAD???? Are these guys penalised for taking away innocent life if he is influential you know what would happen !
Is the Goverment blind to these types of accidents caused by drunkards insted take on the smokers the effect on the society is not proportionte to drunken drive or they do not want to touch one of the highest revenue churning channel.

Well said Subbu. TASMAC is the best source of income for the TN government. To ban this the government has to compensate the loss on other fields. they have reverse the 1 rupree/Kg rice, cutdown the basic commodities for Rs.50 schemes increse the bus tickets, etc.
Recently i have got a mail, which i am sure will disturb all ppl. who drink and drive.
I went to a party Mom,
I remembered what you said.
You told me not to drink, Mom,
So I drank soda instead.
I really felt proud inside, Mom,
The way you said I would.
I didn't drink and drive, Mom,
Even though the others said I should.
I know I did the right thing, Mom,
I know you are always right.
Now the party is finally ending, Mom,
As everyone is driving out of sight.
As I got into my car, Mom,
I knew I'd get home in one piece.
Because of the way you raised me,
So responsible and sweet.
I started to drive away, Mom,
But as I pulled out into the road,
The other car didn't see me, Mom,
And hit me like a load.
As I lay there on the pavement, Mom,
I hear the policeman say,
"The other guy is drunk," Mom,
And now I'm the one who will pay.
I'm lying here dying, Mom....
I wish you'd get here soon.
How could this happen to me, Mom?
My life just burst like a balloon.
There is blood all around me, Mom,
And most of it is mine.
I hear the medic say, Mom,
I'll die in a short time.
I just wanted to tell you, Mom,
I swear I didn't drink.
It was the others, Mom.
The others didn't think.
He was probably at the same party as I.
The only difference is, he drank
And I will die.
Why do people drink, Mom?
It can ruin your whole life.
I'm feeling sharp pains now.
Pains just like a knife.
The guy who hit me is walking, Mom,
And I don't think it's fair.
I'm lying here dying
And all he can do is stare.
Tell my brother not to cry, Mom.
Tell Daddy to be brave.
And when I go to heaven, Mom,
Put "GOOD BOY " on my grave.
Someone should have told him, Mom,
Not to drink and drive.
If only they had told him, Mom,
I would still be alive.
My breath is getting shorter, Mom.
I'm becoming very scared.
Please don't cry for me, Mom.
When I needed you, you were always there.
I have one last question, Mom.
Before I say good bye.
I didn't drink and drive,
So why am I the one to die?
To ban smoking is a fantastic initiative...but very soon we can expect ban on TASMAC too....this is not only good for health, many families will get benefit out of this initiative.
