    Oh great.....

    Why is it...every time I find a way to kill myself...the ^%#$ government tries to find ways to extend my life?

    Could it be the large amount of money I give them each year?

    They better come take my guns too. Cuz I ain't paying taxes anymore....after I hit 70....I blaim them if they go broke after that.

    I always love that "tobacco smoke contains over 4000 chemicals" statistic... ANY tissue of a complex organism (like the leaves of a tobacco plant) or the combustion products thereof will contain thousands of unique compunds, that's just the nature of organic chemistry...

    Isn't "safe cigarette" something of an oxymoron?

    I'm a smoker myself, and I'm getting sick of all the regulations on my smokes! If I want to kill me that way, it's MY business. I just want them to leave me ALONE!

    It would be more honest if the govornment just illegalised tobacco... Come right out and say it "Yes we are oppressing you. Yes we believe we are smarter than you and should make personal decisions for you. No you may not smoke. No, you will never escape the tightening noose of regulation short of death or revolution."
