Baze had a huge career in front of him and threw it all away for booze. He's weak...end of story.
Actually many will say that humans do have control over getting many forms of cancer and other diseases.

It's a medical certainty that smoking makes a person much much more likely to get lung cancer and or emphysema.

Chewing tobacco greatly enhances ones chances of being afflicted with throat cancer.

Bad diet and obesity contribute to diabetes.

I could list a myriad of others.

Your statement is preposterous.

I would have thought you may have commented on another subject other than Cancer and Diabetes today.

People get addicted to high fructose corn syrup, aspartame and msg. You're not going to see too much government funded research on it. It's a soft kill.

When you feel sorry for people with food addictions and defend them like alchys then I'll believe your feigned outrage. Until then shut the f.uck up. You've ruined a thread because you have to overblow everything.
