BS, at this point. No one can claim ignorance that cigs are harmful to your health. It won't save "countless" lives, this is lining someone's pocket with cash. You can especially sense the bs by menthols being left out. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257850/994494.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257850/994494.page GMT Candy and Fruit Flavored Cigs Banned Starting Today

Yeah thats what I first thought when I read the thread title.

I have never seen flavoured tobacco cigarettes over here (apart from menthol) most of the flavoured tobacco is generaly sold in specialist shops for pipe smokers.

It seems like a bit of a dumb decision to me, most people take up smoking because they think it makes them look cool and is a way of rebeling, not because it tastes nice. All this does is stop those legaly entitled to smoke from enjoying a particular product. The problem isn't that these products appeal to kids, it's that there are idiots willing to sell it to them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257850/994659.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257850/994659.page GMT Candy and Fruit Flavored Cigs Banned Starting Today http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257850/994700.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257850/994700.page GMT Candy and Fruit Flavored Cigs Banned Starting Today

But if I ever decided to smoke I want to smoke something delicious. Now I can't. Do cloves taste good? They smell really good. Maybe I'll smoke those.

EDIT: I just read that Blacks got baninated too! I loved how those smelled! Can I still import them or buy them in Mexico!? Holy crap I need to pick up smoking before they baninate it entirely!

The really bad thing is that when they passed it the tobacconist, which are mainly small business's, have to destroy there entire stock. There is no sending it back or getting some kind of compensation. They just have to eat a $1000 loss just like that.

If I were the small tobacconist I'd illegally keep my entire stock. Sell them illegally under the table for a huge profit.

A tobacconist that does anything else is just stupid.

Why would it be more enforced now than then? People still like to drink, including cops and politicians.

To answer your second question, you might look at how you present yourself. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257850/995153.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257850/995153.page GMT Candy and Fruit Flavored Cigs Banned Starting Today
Alot of people drink. Meaning that instead of just drugs to a small minority, the gangs would sell overpriced, badly made, DANGEROUS alcohol to a very large number of people.

It doesn't suprise me in the slightest, the thing is anything if consumed to excess is unheallthy and can potentialy kill you. Over here the problem is the same as the US, unhealthy processed foods are cheap and effort free. If our governments set in place a few simple measures like no direct advertising of unhealthy food to children and a much higher tax rate on certain foods with high salt and fat content then you take away the main temptations for buying the stuff in the first place.
