Of course they are going after kids food now.Ever since they completely decimated the tobacco industry there is no more "there" there and their orgasmic lust for power and control is not nearly satiated yet.Like gabz said in the above post the people have been warned for years that this was coming.But they refused to see it because they hated tobacco more then they loved freedom.Now its coming to bite them and they will be the first one hollering about how unfair it is they and their children are being targeted.Maybe now they will come out on the side of freedom for everyone not just the elite privileged groups in this country but i doubt it.Some people are just to F-ed up emotionally to live in a free democratic country and I dont have nearly enough money to buy every nanny state statist a bungalow in Beijing where they will be happier.

Maybe now they will come out on the side of freedom for everyone not just the elite privileged groups in this country but i doubt it.

I really hope you are wrong, but alas, I'm inclined to agree with you.

I have been saying for more years than I care to mention, but I have always been pooh-poohed because "you're a smoker and that's all yu care about." But that has never been the case with me. Yes, tobacco is what got me interested in the entire issue, but I can see the big picture.

To paraphrase the infamous anti-smoker John Banzhaf "We honed our arguments on the tobacco companies and junk food is next"..........his comments were made in the days and weeks after he and some others filed suit against McDonald's. He blows off the initial losses in the various suits against them saying, (again paraphrasing) "we lost lots of tobacco cases, until we found the right venue to push it."

but i doubt it.

I'm pretty sure that before this jihad is over, our children will all be marching off to the facroties with their daily ration of tofu and water (after calisthenics, of course).

Isn't it something how so many have been taught to hate the evil demon tobacco and even as we told them all that tobacco was just the smoke screen, they still signed on to letting the elite that our founding fathers fled from and despised take over power in the country.

Many still won't get it that they have willfully given up their freedoms as well as banning smokers and tasty foods now.

The ironic side to this is that if you quit smoking, you can expect to gain weight. Then they can come after you again for being too fat.
