May God bless our sailors and marines, and may God condemn what the upper echelons are doing to them!

Nanny State PING!

You can kill or be killed for nanny but she’ll protect you from tobacco. /s

Here we go again with a new anti - tobacco war

[CIB-173RDABN]

I wonder when they are going to go back and begin airbrushing (or photoshop) cigarettes from old movies and photos?

That is too much trouble, perhaps they will just ban any movie or photo with cigarettes in them.

Navy officials are considering removing tobacco from all retail outlets, for those who'd like to speak to the matter http://www.navy.mil/submit/contacts.asp

LOL!

Let me guess - they'll ban tobacco sales, but begin selling marijuana.

There are times I sympathize strongly with libertarians.

[Logical me]

F-ing communists Democrats have destroyed most of what America was and what is left are childlike kids totally depended on King Obama and his sick ilk.

I thought we considered Prohibition a mistake?

Now it rears it’s ugly head again.

Ray rump ranger Mabus is in charge. He'd sell out his Mother for notoriety.

Smokers are degenerates, dispicable,stupid, polluters, worse than child molesters and should be shunned and beat down at every opportunity./s

They should also keep paying tobacco taxes.

I wasn’t a habit smoker when I was in. But still before each cruse I stocked up on some Swishers for an occasional treat from the grind. Wisely I stocked enough to pass a few around. Some things you take for granted on land become luxuries and special treats on a long cruise. The prevailing hazards I inhaled on the ship far exceeded what years of smoking could do to my lungs.

Sadly, there’s a few on this site that are cheering this proposal.

Let’s see. Tobacco is legal. It is not mentioned under the UCMJ in any way. Tobacco normally takes decades before there is any serious health effect. Those effects tend to be short lived and fatal, thus actually cheaper than paying pensions into someone’s 90’s.

But sodomy is specifically banned by the UCMJ. Sodomy is inherently dangerous. Sodomy spreads HIV and other diseases which take how long before they create very expensive health problems?

So, let’s ban tobacco and bring on the open homosexuals!

These people are dumber than dirt.

[ViLaLuz]

But pole smoking is just fine!

[catnipman]

Just so long as they don’t ban pot sales ...

He added he thinks that the Navy and Marines Corps should have more pressing issues to attend to than tobacco.

my sentiments exactly
