Yes and no. If you smoke with the intention of dying then it could be considered suicide. No, because some people are addicted and can't stop. They just don't have the will power to stop. You can't die quick enough for it to be called suicide. No. can't be suicide.

You are making a valid point here.

No. Slippery slope there. Should deaths attributed to fatty diets be labeled suicides? People know very well the cause-and-effect regarding cholesterol, and do it anyway...

Aw crikey. Get a god damned life. There are terrorists, neo-cons, over-population, unemployment, poor education, gangs, rising crime, endangered species. . .and you want to join the group of smoking bashers. Most of you smoke marijuana, which has been shown to be as bad for the lungs. We smoke outside. We smoke away from others. We do something that has been part of the culture since white men found the Indian. If I were able to smoke two cartons a day, you'd out pollute my with your car in one week. Leave us alone. Go bash fat people. Maybe ugly people. You seem to dense to take on a real issue.
