This guy just tripled cigarette sales to teens.
The guy is in Fallujah putting his life on the line every single minute. Each smoke could be his last. If that is how he handles the stress more power to him.
I, for one, would be glad to send cigarettes over there. It is the least I can do.
As for the teens---I do not need a village to raise my children. I do not need a village to shape my child's behavior by controlling the behavior and habits of others.
I would tell my sons smoking will kill you, but so will a bullet. He is a grown man and knows the risks. It is his life, his deccision and the consequences are his alone.
Not a flame. Just my personal opinion.
Your remark was unnecessary. It's illegal to sell cigarettes to minors.
I started smoking when I was 16 and I never killed anyone on the highway from drunken smoking! heh!
HOOT! That's the first thing I thought - "There goes YEARS of anti-smoking ads!"
Kudos to the photographer - and quite a different picture than the one the media ran of the soldier with the "thousand-yard stare" at the battle for Hue in Vietnam.
