'Too graphic' anti-smoking ad faces censure

Smoking is a legal activity and I think it's terrible that people are lambasted for doing it just because the general consensus is that it's "unhealthy". Health and safety is in the eye of the beholder, and if the logic behind anti-smoking ads is applied to other "unhealthy products" then we could soon see chocolate and cakes, alcohol, energy drinks, coffee and red meat being given the same treatment. Let's not forget the massive tax contribution smokers make to our NHS, and the fact that they are human beings not criminals or delinquents. It should be noted that I am a non-smoker who has never smoked, and I am not pro-smoking simply anti-discrimination.
