The pictures make me sicker than the smoking.

Should hot dog packages show choking children?

Barney Frank would probably vote for it.

I anticipate a huge increase in the sale of cigarette cases.

Makes me wonder why they (the gov’t) won’t put graphic pictures of aborted fetuses on the outside of abortion clinics.

How in the world can the Democrats and liberals even feign that their point of view is NOT one of nanny-state extremism?!?

You cannot seriously have a debate with someone who does not have ANY semblance of reality! RIGHT?!?

Now, let’s mandate murals of aborted fetuses on the outside of abortion clinics.

“It doesn’t matter how big the warnings on the cigarettes are; you could have a black pack, with a skull and crossbones on the front, called TUMORS, and smokers would be around the block going, “I can’t wait to get my hands on these #$%^ing things! I bet ya get a tumor as soon as you light up!” - Denis Leary (1992)

Agreed. They can put pictures on my cigarettes right after they put pictures on the front door of abortion clinics!

Barney Frank should have to walk around with a picture of an emaciated AIDS patient pinned to the back of his jacket.

There should be a picture of a Zimbabwe trillion dollar note next to Obama’s name on the next ballot.

And make that pillow-biter put one on his a$$ . . . the rear one . . . and maybe on his front one . . . his mouth (like, what's the diff?)

I am not and have never been a smoker, but this deeply offends me. Time for Congress to put it’s foot down if they are ever going to be serious about reigning in the Fed bureaucracy.

So will these photos go on packaging of medical marijuana? What about second hand marijuana smoke?

This will only cheapen and desensitize the effects.

If warnings about bad effects are to be placed on products, then the very graphic gruesome details of the genocide of the Unborn ought to be plastered all over PP.
