I'm completely addicted to nicotene after years of smoking. Flavored cigarettes while barely of age is what got me started. If they didn't taste good, I wouldn't have smoked at all. Making something that is completely unhealthy and evil not taste good is a GOOD THING. Showing the family of tobacco growers has nothing to do with anything. I could show a dad who has to sell meth to keep his house and feed his kids, and say "this is why meth and crack and heroine needs to be legalized!"

I hope the Indonesian companies raise hell and sue the hell out of Obama, the USA for unfair trade practices. I am pushing 50 years old and should be able to smoke clove cigarettes if I want, damn you for taking away my personal freedoms. I may vote republican/teaparty since they promote freedom of choice. Obama, you have really pissed me the fuck off.

The U.S govt wants it to go away? Bull-shit. They tax the shit out of it to make it seem like they want it to go away. $10 for a pack of cigs in New-York. They would ban nicotine all together if they wanted it to go away. What about alcohol commercials? They air on ESPN and MANY kids watch that channel. Fuck the lies they tell us. "Freedom of speech?" more like "You can put it on a newspaper or air it, if we like what it says."

Cigars were exempted lol Pipe tobacco was exempted lol

[MOTODIPPER225]

you have to realize, its not like he doesnt have war or anything else to worry about. tobacco should be addressed before our fucking troops over sea's in war. hes a fucking idiot.

[foxriderkx100]
