Meat people t talk to Tell me i am Over reacting. An Euon dido High school Girt was excused Tram her English class because she refused to Complete a worst Caie final disaster paper. The subject of the paper was As follows sixteen people were in a bomb shelter that could support Only 10. Survival on the Oul Side Wax impossible. The student had to choose which 10 people should be allowed to remain. Six people had to be turned out to certain death. The girl refused to Complete the paper because it went against her religious principles la make the choices required. The problem i have with this is that it asks tote student to make a Basic Assumption that Tome lives Are More valuable than others. I object to a leather who accepts the disposal of the useless As the Only acceptable answer. Pjs. My information comes from the time. Advocate in Escondido. Xxx car xxx t the question raised by the leather in votes both morality and ethics. When you say be student was excused i Hope you did t mean she was kicked out.

The selection of recipients b based on �., Central condition and thai Fanon s potential contribution to society. I Beliew it is useful for High school modems to think Aboul these in Infix. After Page 11 letters re Teson Pui then by the  provided an excellent Opportunity to exercise judgment. Reminder readers reply to non smoker s declaration of War this is for the lady who has declared War on smokers. I am a smoker and my parents arc not. They Don t like it but it is my right. Be cause they Don t like it i respect their wishes Ana do not smoke in i hair Home. I have a Friend who has asked me not to smoke in her House and i Don t. When she is in my Home t smoke next to an open window to draw the smoke out. All you have to do with most smokers is ask them politely and they will respect your wishes and put it Oul. There arc some who Are inconsiderate but not most. If you a or close a Little common Courtesy you will be a lot happier. To declare War is not necessary. Be warned though if you approach a person who is smoking and you have an attitude you will not reach your goal. I would put it out anyway. Many smokers though would not respect your wishes if you came at them angry. They will feel that you Are challenging their rights. Just relax for a minute then walk up and ask them politely to please put out their cigarette say the smoke ii bothering you and then thank them. Don t be discouraged if you find a few bad attitudes. Most smok ers Are pretty easy to get along with if you approach them nicely. I am sure you have friends who smoke. If you Don to you Are missing out on some Good people. Some of us smoke i make Good respecting friends. Just try a Little consideration and you will receive the same. If we Don t know you we won t know you Don t want us to smoke when you arc around until you it us know. It takes consideration and patience on both sides to come to a Compromise and a solution. We have too Many people starting wan already who won t communicate. We Don t need More. A Little consideration goes a Long Way. La Rick cells a Rel to Germany in answer to a War declaration it seems that the world is full or those selected few who overreact when they feel they Are being Downtrodden. Let me describe the Type who talks of others filthy habits while completely Over looking their own. Examples 1. The next Lime you re at the theater or restaurant run your hand along the Bot Tom of the table or chair and Check out the thoughtful Deposit of chewing gum that Type probably placed there. Smokers have other things to pacify us. 2.the Type who having no chair or table Handy in the Exchange parking lot will throw gum on the ground for me to step . The Type who is so concerned Wii their lungs and heart they Hup Inta i hair Brusly inter Rel combi Kilun Meed fur a trip Down the Block leaving a Trail of smoke a mile Long behind them because they Don t feel the need to tune up old Ironsides. 4. The pc who changes the Little one s Din per in Public then leaves a filthy diaper in Plain sight for someone else to pick up. 5. The Type who has no control Over their offspring will let than run rampant with the resulting a disc level that will probably give me ulcers some Hyrc Down the Road. 6. The outdoorsy Type who for years polluted the highways and Waterways of our nation to the Point of real health ita7ards. Your insistence Tinl All smokers lire hurting you has Merit. Maybe am an idiot because t smoke and have no respect for my health and that of others. Those others have no respect for my health so 1 Don t feel a thing when some one tells me All the items you listed in your War declaration. I Don t smoke in pasted no smoking areas but if it in t posted believe me i m going to smoke. Do your worst your our declaration Means absolutely nothing to me. Staff sol. Peter a. Mitt bomb Lingen Germany others who agreed Wilt the Preer Dong letter Are sgt. Jerry Thatcher Mannheim Germany spec. 4 Joseph m. While Heidelberg Germany not everyone disagrees i wish to add a qualified right on to the recent letter about smoking and smok ers in the paper. The writer is very Correct that smokers Are to blame for a lot of the problems from smoking but far from All. A lot of information has been put together by the non smokers rights movement Over the past several years and an appalling picture has come to Light the problem is secondhand tobacco smoke which is a Hazard Tor everyone who breathes it and every non smoker who does t give a Damn. Research studies say secondhand Tobac co smoke causes several thousand lung cancer deaths a year in non smokers. To put this into contrast the most serious environmental pollutant that the Environ mental Protection Agency regulates causes some 10 to is deaths a year. Recent studies say the smoke is More dangerous in causing heart disease in non smokers than n the smokers. Women who smoke during pregnancy have More mis carriages than non smokers. Children whose mothers smoked during pregnancy have More developmental problems than their Peers. Leak left Reader feeling betrayed Alt feel Era to be editor the full printed name and writer and must be signed. Bold your name on request and Jour privacy. I am writing to you to express my feel Ings about a recent article that appeared in the Washington Post and was printed by the stars and stripes it had me feeling As though my country and everyone in it had been betrayed. I am referring to the article which Dis closed alleged plans for the overthrow of Moa mar khad Afy s libyan regime. It was leaked by an intelligence source. I Tucci that this person should be put in jail for life shooting him or her would be an injustice to the american Public. Some people May find this to be harsh but i m sure that i am not atone in my thinking. This inexcusable act by a government employee makes me wonder if this person could be a spy and if there could be More spies in the while House. What else would compel somebody to disclose information True or false that could jeopardize the United states position As a world Leader and weaken already i trained relations with some of its allies Many americans abroad could also be Hurt by toe lunatics who Fol Low a Man like Khadely. I do not know if the Story was True but if it was would have Given it my full sup port. Khad Afy is a madman who promotes terrorism and has vowed to topple the United states. We have played Long enough with this maniac and the Many others like him. Khad Afy started this fight and i think it s time for us to finish it i feel that our government should regu late not control the circulation of secret information to prevent any similar allegations from appearing in newspapers in t it a shame that Libya does not have Freedom of the press so that we could learn what diabolical schemes Kha Day has planned for i spec.

People have severe allergies to the smoke and must avoid it. These Are but a few exam Ples and much Marc comes in Light with every study. An article from Din Burti Scotland put this Haard into perspective during nil the years of Ira terrorism More britishers died from Side Stream tobacco smoke than the most determined efforts of the terrorists. Cd in the face of All this evidence who is defending smoking it is the non smoker Hospital administrator who puts up a no sum King sign and then tells smokers to ignore it. It is the non smoker restaurant manager who has a no smoking Section downwind of smokers. It is every non smoker who does t want to annoy any one. The previous writer very correctly identified one part of the problem we Are dealing with a fascinating mental deficiency people who think that tobacco smoke miraculously vanishes when the smoker slops smoking.
