Can you imagine how cheesed off the military will be if they aren’t allowed to use tobacco?
I imagine most of them are kind of P O’d enough already considering who’s in charge.

“And why are they banning all flavored cigarettes except menthols?”
Because menthol is huge money.

I have been smoking since I was 13 and am now 70. No lung problems, no breathing problems, a touch of arthritis and a few bouts of unstable angina over the past year...I purchased enough pounds of tobacco to last me at least a year before they taxed it...I roll my how...Not giving the sob in Washington 25 dollars a pound for taxes is the only motivation I have for stopping a habit I enjoy..Hope they all got to he!!. :O) bunch of leaches....

Well tobacco just has a passe feel to it.
I’m focusing my energies on outdoor grill bans and stopping the wanton consumption of animal protein, both almost as bad as tabak.
