Meanwhile heroin addiction is skyrocketting and black-market oxycontin is an essential part of the Downeast economy

Oh you bet! You know, we had a lot of teens that lost their lives this summer in twisted pieces of metal that used to be a car from drinking and driving. See? All "they" care about is DON'T LET THE TEENS BE AROUND SMOKING. KEEP TEENS FROM SMOKING!"

Well, by God, if these kids smoked instead of drinking they would still be with us today. I know no one wants to see teens smoke OR drink. But there are bigger fish to fry in this world besides the war on the smokers. These groups are absolutely ridiculous!

what really gets me is that a couple of weeks ago, i stopped in a convience store to pick up a 12 pak and there was a nice looking, clean cut young man in full fatigue uniform because he was on weekend national guard drill....he bought a pack of smokes and the cashier, who looked like his i.q. was smaller than this g.i.'s hat size made a big production af making his produce i.d. that proved he was old enough to smoke....it really chapped my ass...this young man could be called to active duty any day and may very possibly die in the line of duty so this high school dropout could feel good about making sure he didn't sell smokes to someone underage... just makes my ass want to take a dip of snuff!!!!!
