Are they trying to piss off black ppl? 🤣
Interesting to note. Wasn’t aware of that, but I have little doubt that anyone in MA that wants them can get them from a neighboring state easy enough, and likely the black market in the area has them readily available.
The nationwide ban will be an interesting exercise in Fascism.
Fentanyl kills tens of thousands of Americans annually.
How many Americans does the menthol in cigarettes kill?
While the do gooders think they are going after a worse cigarette, used in bigger percentages by a “minority” and thus hurting that “minority” - “blacks” - if they had their pulse on the people they’d find the black community is not happy about the Biden’s going after menthol cigarettes.
No problemo. The Mexicans will get them for us and sell them at their little “Street Taco” trucks.
Trying to regulate some behaviors is often not solved or made worse by the manner of the regulations set for that objective.
Case in point is New York State’s legalization of the sale of marijuana for recreational use, and the regulations put in place to implement it.
The regulations are so onerous and wrong headed that illegal retail marijuana shops are now ubiquitous in New York City and far outnumber, many times over, the legal marijuana shops. The whole thing is a mess and a disaster.
The 'big guy' couldn't care less inasmuch as he gets his 10% and gets to replace Americans thus killed with illegal aliens who are more friendly with autocratic rule by his handlers. A twofer.
Lossie la2s killed Eric Gardner, leftists fault!
Wasn’t one of the George Floyd-like mostly peaceful “martyrs” selling cigarette “loosies” when he was “martyred?”
First, buy a cigarette rolling machine, they’re pretty inexpensive.
For better smokes in any case without the added chemicals, buy the best pipe tobacco you can find. I don’t indulge a lot, it costs me $10 for a 2 month supply.
If you’re jonesing for menthol, IN ANY CASE, get the best pipe tobacco you can find and infuse it sparingly with mint extract, either on a sponge inside a baggie in the bag or tin, or by misting the tobacco very lightly.
OR just pop a mint tea bag into your tobacco jar and let it develop flavor over a few days.
I would not try to use essential oil in any manner. It may be ok but it’s not foolproof.
Commercial cigarettes are just awful and full of extra added toxins, which you get to pay a LOT of taxes for.
Nobody needs that.
You know the reason. $Billion$ of taxes.
I say; after a couple of months tell them we'll bring back menthols if they'll shut up about reparations.
The only thing that should’ve happened to Gardener was to be told to leave. Why did they kill him? Because he was selling untaxed cigarettes! Didn’t he pay the taxes when he bought them? That man should still be alive
Vietnamese were big fans of Salems.
“ Drug warriors accept no excuses.”
They are entitled to their opinion.
It's been my observation that they have already given up menthols in favor of weed.
