See how that goes? The law has zero effect on me, but that doesnt mean it isnt beyond stupid...it is. And it only hurts the stores...no one else.

And ANYONE who thinks making tobacco illegal is a good idea....one word for you.

Prohibition.

See how well that one worked out.

Speaking of which....and yes it was mentioned earlier....why make tobacco so illegal yet have government sanctioned stores for liquor sales?

Someone else drinking liquor and getting in their vehicles hurts other people just as much as second hand smoke can. Hell, long term affects of alcohol consumption has been proven umpteen times, but somehow that's OK...because you want it that way. So why is it OK to sell one but not the other?

THATS the hypocrisy in all this mess...and the Government has got the anti-smoking crowd to buy it hook, line and sinker.
