Well, cloves happen to be much worse for your health than regular cigarettes.  Still, I they could've just raised taxes on them.

Clove cigarettes made me rape my neighbor's baby, beat my wife, and stab the mailman. But I go to church now so god loves and forgives me and has a seat saved for me in heaven.

He didn't ban regular cigs cause he smokes em.

I'd love to sneak a cloves cigarrete in his packet after the ban, and catch him, arrest him, and stuff him in a 10ft x 10ft cell for 12 months.

I didn't vote for that FUCKER.
I HATE OBAMA.

I also hate cigs too.
but, I do believe in choice.
if you want to kill yourself with them. then go right ahead.
I don't care if you do it with regular ones or vanilla ones.

and another thing.
I'm tired of hearing about the damn children
"what about the children?"
every time they wanna ban anything, we always gotta hear about these
damn kids.

That first link was a good read. The following doesn't surprise me at all, considering the Big-Tobacco Lobby's complicity in the recent SCHIP/Excise-Tax bill where the tax on roll-your-own tobacco went up 1,200%.

Quote:
What makes this so reprehensible is the fact that the big tobacco companies have been pushing for this legislation.  While it appears to seek to curb products that would be appealing to youth, the truth of the matter is this bill is designed to block competitors of the traditional tobacco dealers.  Just look at the exception of menthols.  Why is that flavor not included?  The answer is simple: because people like Phillip Morris make way too much money to risk pissing them off.  The irony of the matter really comes out when you start looking at statistics.  Are kids using cloves and vanilla cigarettes a “gateway” to “harder” products like Marlboro Reds?  No!  Just read this analysis from Sarah Torribio. [...]

By supporting this bill, big tobacco companies like Phillip Morris and R.J. Reynolds can appear to be taking a stand against underage smoking, while suffering no ill effects to their bottom line.  In fact, this bill helps them out by reducing the competition.  While I can certainly get behind many of the other elements of the legislation, this ban on flavorings does nothing to protect children and instead limits the choices of adults.  There is no evidence this ban will improve the health or decrease the smoking rate of Americans.  What it best illustrates is how effective big corporations are at shielding their profits because of effective lobbying...

I love how you posted that with such a "matter of factly" sort of wording, considering that isn't a factual statement.

This is absolute BULLSHIT.

Why the fuck isn't alcohol/regular cigs banned? They're just as bad.
