But those who wrote the law defend it as fair because it holds all tobacco retailers - whether the corner store or a mail-order business - to the same standards for checking IDs and paying tobacco taxes.

Maine's law, which took effect Sept. 13, makes it illegal for anyone except licensed tobacco retailers to sell tobacco products to consumers in Maine.

BINGO

If you can't tax it (internet) make it illegal.

Did you read where UPS won't deliver tobacco products to Maine people anymore? What kind of a dictatorship is THIS???

If that's the case, Mainer's shouldn't be allowed to buy ANYTHING out of the state. Right? Why just tobacco? Why not the whole ball of wax??!!
