Dat be racist.
So true, yet many will die “free men” I fear. There is no other choice being left to “liberty lovers”. Soon there will be no room left to retreat.
The Congressional Black Congress is 110% behind and pushing for the ban on menthol cigarettes....of which their targeted smoking constituents smoke a greater proportion of menthols compared to other populations demographics in the united states.
It’s an intergalactic nanny state!
Life was INFINITELY better when people could smoke in a grocery store, and drop the butt on the floor to be stepped on. The life expectancy went through the roof, and people were not fat. Now, we worry every day how to squeeze one more day out of life, instead of putting more life into our day.

Actually it is in the filter. Kools were the first menthol and the first filter cigarette.
Mind-numbed Robot: Actually it is in the filter. Kools were the first menthol and the first filter cigarette.
I have never seen menthol flavored applied to the paper - however that does not mean it does not exist. However, when we switched from tobacco company cigarettes to RYO we found both menthol filter tubes and menthol tobacco.
I'm sure with a bit of experimentation menthol tobacco can be created with the addition of a simple kitchen ingredient or 2 --- such as extracts or essential oils.
Where there is a will, there is a way.
And the Mexican border is perfectly safe.
Here we go again.
removal of menthol cigarettes from the marketplace would benefit the public health.
So what? the removal of alcoholic beverages from the marketplace would also benefit the public health. Are they in a rush to ban alcohol? No. That’s because most people drink, while only about 25% of people smoke. This is tyranny of the majority, an ugly trait. Leave the smokers alone until you’re equally prepared to ban EVERYTHING that is a danger to public health. http://www.cigarettespub.net/
