[Margaret Pilkington]

How do you know that the person died of some smoking related disorder?
The death could be from any number of causes.

And why shouldn't people have the right to think for themselves?
Just because some people make poor choices doesn't mean that everyone does.
If the government wanted to stop smokers...really wanted to do it, then they would make smoking illegal......they could stop the sale of cigarettes(the tax revenue from such action would be lost and would have to be recouped in some other way).

Everyone chooses their own vices.......some of these are riskier than others......but we are all capable of making the choice.

This is not to say that I condone smoking......I do not.
