protesting tobacco tax
    #10063914 - 03/29/09 01:47 AM (15 years, 3 days ago)

As most smokers know april 1st there will be a huge tax increase on tobacco. I plan to protest this unconstitutional law. Maybe you are one of those pussies who thinks tobacco should be unfairly taxed because it is a health hazard and costs society in the long run. Of course you'd be a fucking moron to believe that and should die.

In protest I encourage you to spread tobacco seeds everywhere. but don't stop with just tobacco, there are all kinds of awesome plants that deserve to thrive in the wild. Just like when shroom spores were made illegal in my state, and now suddenly people are finding very unusual and rare shrooms here (LOL) it would be cool to be walking in a field to discover patches of cool plants growing wild. Use your imagination, because America became an independent nation BECAUSE THE BRITISH GOVERNMENT UNFAIRLY TAXED THEM WITHOUT REPRESENTATION.

"As most smokers know april 1st there will be a huge tax increase on tobacco. I plan to protest this unconstitutional law."

It's not unconstitutional for the government to tax certain products, I don't know where you got this from.


If I cared enough about tobacco, I would protest this tax, though.

Tobacco is just the beginning. From there everything will be taxed my friends, tobacco is just an easy target because it is politically incorrect to smoke at this time. Trust me folks, you may not care about tobacco, but it's just a stepping stone and soon they will be taxing something you do care about.

There are already thousands of us strong in the movement those who understand what is at stake here and value freedom will do there part to keep us free from tyranny.

Well when it comes to that, then I'll take a stand. Right now, I'm just concerned about helping to make cannabis legal.

Yeah, tobacco is a very dangerous plant unlike any other, I want to quit but it fucks with my body I tried a few weeks ago and went really crazy and I'm probably going to be in trouble for it and I'm still kind of crazy from it because I tried to take some medication to help quit and it was making me hallucinate like crazy.

Tobacco sucks I hope they illegalize it because it is really the most dangerous plant, unlike Cannabis or Peyote or anything it gets into your soul and destroys you.

BTW this was gonna be an april fools joke but then I realized tobacco is a nasty dangerous plant, you can get poisoned touching it when it is wet so don't plant it dudes seriously.

You think it needs to be illegalized? And you think other drugs should be legalized? Kind of hypocritical, don't you think?


Tobacco isn't that dangerous at all, IMO. There is a fine line between use and abuse.

well assuming you're going to make any substance illegal, tobacco seems like the most obvious one.

the addiction rates are completely off the chart, and it clearly destroys your health, doesn't really bring much benefit.

its a bad drug.

So nasty of a poison that it's been cultivated for centuries for the purpose of it being ingested...

How do you tell an old man of 83 who smokes a tobacco pipe about once or twice a month that hes poisoned himself and shortened his life?...I haven't found a way to do it.
