After spending decades doing anything they could to deny the harmful effects of their product while experimenting on ways to make it more addictive the tobacco companies now want to blame it all on the junkies they created. Meanwhile using the courts to silence those that disagree. Keep in mind this is a widely available highly addictive product that kills a half million people a year.
Meanwhile the government spends billions of dollars a year to catch, prosecute and jail people that smoke marijuana. A drug that isn't addictive doesn't kill people and actually may have some health benefits. So much for equal protection under the law.
