I'm not upset. I'm just defending the actions of law enforcement. They happen to be in the right.

Not law enforcement.  But the LAWMAKERS.  And they are NOT right in their pursuit of this.

But I do mind when other people aren't carrying what is their fair share by law. That is one of the many little sociopathologies exhibited by New Yorkers.

Fair share of the law?  When a legal commodity is priced so high in taxes to balance budgets, line lawmakers pockets, build big fancy gold courses, etc etc, this is FAIR? 

And why do you think that 25-30% of the people who purchase a legal commodity should carry the damn state's budget on their shoulders?????

He has an irrational fear of Cigarrettes. Maybe a parent that didn't hug him enough used to smoke. Could be anything. It's the same hatred people have to guns, SUVS, etc. Its a mind disorder.

He obviously doesn't care how unethical these acts are, as long as they hurt those damn smokers they're OK in his book.

Thus, the term "SHEEPLE" was created.

The thread was about enforcing the law.

Okay, their legally determined share. We can argue all day and night about what's fair.

They would hardly be carrying the state or the city's gargantuan budget on their shoulders even if they were all to pay the cigarette tax.
