RP, your post is confused. You think parents were lobbying against cigarettes while scientists were saying they were safe? Or maybe the scientific establishment was claiming it was safe to drink and drive, until noble brave citizens won the day?
Anyway, since you're creating "history" on the fly, you forgot the victories of the valiant anti-vaccination lobby. They haven't quite succeeded yet, because Big Pharma is still making billions off sticking needles into people and causing [whatever the latest bullshit scam panic is], but one day, the little people will prevail!
