To: a fool in paradise
and the dopers think that this nation will be somehow more permissive when it comes to pot

Total BS. If marijuana is going to remain illegal, then I hope that tobacco addicts will have to deal w/ the same fate that those of us who enjoy smoking marijuana face right now. Confiscate their houses & cars & drug test them out of their jobs. Take their kids & put them up for foster care...after all, it is detrimental to the health of a child to be raised in a tobacco-smoke environment.

We need some CONSISTENCY in our drug laws. Either re-legalize marijuana & let those of us who use it responsibly do so w/o fear of gov't harassment (which is what I support), or make tobacco just as illegal as marijuana is.

You have no right to smoke tobacco either and there are employers that do not permit people to smoke the legal substance even offsite on their own time.

Call it a lifestyle choice like homosexuality and you might be able to force employers to allow it.

Walt Disney didn’t permit his employees to smoke or have facial hair. “Do as I say, not as I do.”

But I know of modern companies that have a no tobacco rule.
