    This picture of snuffed out cigarettes over a an X-ray of lungs is absolutely DISGUSTING!!!!  I am a stage lV lung cancer survivor who never smoked and I am among the thousands in the same situation!  Don't you know yet that if you have lungs, you can get lung cancer?!  We now know that it is just the location that the cancer cells decided (with no help of invitation from us!) to divide and multiply!  Please remove any such pictures indicating that the only way to get lung cancer is by smoking.  The stigma it creates ("they brought it on themselves") is why lung cancer is the least funded cancer, yet the number 1 killer! You are contributing to that stigma.
