Ex-smoker but American, I would not be opposed to that here. As long as vaping and other “safer” alternatives are still available. People should have the freedom to use nicotine if they please, but cigarettes need to go. They are so goddamn terrible for you, and there are better tasting alternatives. The juice just isn’t worth the squeeze. Well, the vape juice is… Whatever
If I want to smoke cigarettes you not liking them shouldn’t get in the way of that. Some of us don’t see a long term future in this shit world. A smoke is five minutes of peace. All substances should be legal and regulated.
Cigarettes make you and everything around you smell like shit. Second hand smoke is fuckin TERRIBLE. You want to be Mr. Fight Club nihilist that’s fine, but I shouldn’t have to breathe your cancerous bullshit. You are free to die on your own terms, you are not free to kill/hurt others to feel like Coolguy McAntiauthority. Waddle on back to yer nest, Pancho.
Who shit in your cereal, asshole? I vape if I’m out and about, because I’m not an asshole and realize others don’t want to smell cigarettes. Nothing I said indicated I’m out smoking amongst people, I simply said if I choose to smoke, your moral panic shouldn’t step on that, because it doesn’t fucking affect you when I smoke in my car or on my porch with some coffee or a beer. I smoke cigarettes infrequently.
And no, I don’t toss my butts everywhere either. Eat me. I’m free to hurt myself and mind my own business, like you should.
100% agree, tbh most countries dont know how to handle drugs…look at Portugal for a good example on how to do it.
Either way yes we should let people decide what they do with their lives. We don’t need no one banning bleach cuz a bunch of people decided to drink it too. We didn’t need them around either way.
Yeah no nicotine needs to go too. You shouldn’t be allowed to sell a product that is pretty much guaranteed to make you an addict for the rest of your days. And that’s pretty much what the e-cigs makers have been doing, targeting younger customers to ensure they never run out of addicts even after old fashioned tobacco smokers are gone. The only benefit of nicotine is to relieve nicotine withdrawal symptoms. Vape nicotine-free juice if you enjoy it, but nicotine itself should only be sold in pharmacies to people who are already hooked.
