I have the greatest respect for a person whom has the ability to become a member of the Special Forces. I'm somewhat sure that I could meet the physical requirements, significantly less confident that I could muster the necessary mental toughness. I worked with an ex-Navy Seal whom was not very big, but exuded almost unimaginable toughness. He was generally reasonably quiet, but occasionally did tell a few stories about the years in Vietnam. Some veteran Seals caught him smoking in a bar shortly after his San Diego based Seal training. They believed that smoking could jepardize his fellow comrades in any situation which might require extreme fitness. They hauled him off in his street clothes and dumped him a couple miles out in the Pacific Ocean. The parting words given before leaving him were: if he was in good enough physical condition to make it to ashore alive, than he could continue smoking. Perhaps this desire/need to flaunt conventional wisdom, is one means of creating/nurturing the mental toughness required to be in the Special Forces. That said, I do and have had several "dogs in the fight". Lost both parents, and both grandparents on my mother's side (father's parents did not smoke) because of cigarettes. Many have suffered considerable mental anguish from their painful and untimely deaths. My disabled brother has a daughter who desperately needs his presence which is unlikey without a lung transplant. Although tobacco is legal, I will continue to support any ordinance or law which prohibits or otherwise makes it difficult to smoke in a public venue. Relative to the statement that "farmers deserve to make a decent living" I'm sure it is exactly what the Afghanistan opium farmers believe.
