However, if all the smokers quit, then guess what? The state you live in would be coming after something YOU have to make up for the lost taxes on cigarettes. What do you say about THAT?

I say keep it up. In fact I say raise the cigarette taxes even more. I say you're addicted to your cigarettes they're addicted to YOUR money...which one is the fool?

I don't care if you quit or not. You can do it 'till you cough and gag yourself blue, just do it like civilized people with respect for others do with other repulsive things...do it elsewhere.

Your brain dead, you know it?  They aren't GETTING my money! HELLO!!!!!!!!

We roll our own and get a carton for under $8.00!  We are not paying into the state coffers anymore, get it?  Our tobacco comes from overseas, so even Big Tobacco here in the STATES isn't reaping any of our money.

You sure are one nasty stupid chit. Thank God I will never have to meet the likes of you.  You  disgust me...........

You know what? I bet your not "addicted" as you put it to ANYTHING.  I bet your one boring little nerd in real life that gets beat up on all the time.  Because if you spewed your views in real life that you do in here, you would be in the HOSPITAL!!!! Why don't you get a life and stop bashing people who choose to smoke!

Yes I agree... When you want to spew do it elsewhere. Smokers don't want to listen to your bile any more than you want to smell our smoke. Next time you see a smoker, do us all a favor and run away.

Is someone blowing smoke up your skirt? Oh, no? Then what are you complaining about? People can't smoke in most public buildings - haven't been able to for a long time. You control who smokes in your home. There are designated smoking and non-smoking areas in those public buildings that DO allow smoking (e.g. restaurants). Where in the world are you FORCED to breathe second hand smoke?

”…just do it like civilized people with respect for others do with other repulsive things...do it elsewhere…”

I bet you didn’t build your house, or any dwelling you ever lived in. I bet you can’t do wiring, plumbing nor chance the cv joints in your car. Let alone replace the head gasket. I bet you can’t do a intravenous cutdown, nor build a boat or navigate by the stars. I bet you’re a lousy cook and couldn’t make a decent roué if your life depended upon it. I bet you can’t hunt or fish and have under 5 thousand books in your house. That makes you repulsive. Lastly, if someone’s smoke has your pantywaist little immune system in catastrophic overload, be man enough to ask them if they mind. After a while you’ll find it easier and easier. Perhaps, you might strike up a conversations and finally have a friend.

So if you have a B.O. problem, I have the right to sue you to have you restricted to say going out in public only between 10 p.m. to midnight daily? Because that's what you are saying I have the right to do. That pretty much keeps you in the 24 hour groceries, 7-11's and late movies. Better think about what you wish for.
