(CNN) -- A Florida jury awarded a 92-year-old man $1.9 million in compensatory damages for the death of his wife, a former two-pack-a-day Marlboro smoker who started when she was 16 and died in her 70s, attorneys said Thursday.

Ugh this is crazy. Anything that causes you to freakin hack up a lung when you inhale it can't be good for you.
Maybe not, but nobody is holding a gun to we smokers heads and forcing us to smoke any more than someone forced that moron who sued McDonald's to eat like 10 Big Mac's a day. He lost.
Thank God for our legal system. I can't see how this case won't be overturned on appeal.
I'm an old lady who has smoked for 50 years. I have told my family that when it finally kills me I will come back and haunt them if they ever try to sue some company about it. It is my own stupid decision and I take full responsibility for that decision....as I have for every other decision I have made.
She died in her seventies... many non-smokers don't live that long. this is so stupid.
