The senate is trying to raise the legal age of purchasing and smoking tobacco to 21+.
Any thoughts?

Raise the age to 100. See how many people smoke, then.
-
That's -blam!-ing awesome, props to them. Smoking is one of the most addictive and nastiest habits someone can pick up. I kicked all my addictions I use to have, and I'm being 100% serious when I say smoking cigarettes was way harder to quit than alcohol and every single drug I had problems with in the past.
-
I hope the world gets its shit together and first allow smoking to anybody under the age of 400. We may bump it up a little depending on genetic limitations.
-
Maybe they should fix this whole drought thing first
-
Get if of the shot altogether it's worse than weed which is illegal which I don't approve of either btw
-
Smoking is bad let's be honest.Right now some kids are thinking "wow this guy is a fagget but really it's bad.I think this is good cus duh do you you see how many people die daily because of smoking

I'm almost 21 so even if it came to Minnesota it wouldn't bother me. It would decrease the 18 year olds from buying for minors though. Because what 21 year old is going to buy cigarettes for a 16 year old.

Idiotic. The government has no business being involved with drugs in any way. Period.
-
That's great.
-
or just ban smoking entirely
-
California has a few more pressing matters at hand

Ladies and gentlemen this isn't about smoking. It's about personal freedoms and choices. I, myself am a "nasty smoker". Trying to quit btw. This is a slippery slope that our government is on and will likely not end with smoking. Soon you will be told what to eat and in the not so far off future be told what mode of transportation you can and cannot use. I know that smoking is a horrible platform to get behind, but act now while you still can or irreparable precedents will be set that will open doors to removal of other rights to other peoples in other states. *steps off soapbox* sorry about the rant lets play destiny!!!

I started smoking at 12 (when smoking age was 16 in England). Laws don't change shiit, but, to some people they do (complete law-abiding citizens) so maybe it's a good thing...

-
wait, it isn't already?
-
I find it insane that you can buy salvia at 18 and the Senate has no problem with that.
-
Thank God.

Edited by GameBroJeremy: 6/5/2015 12:48:42 PMWell umm... Sadly this doesn't effect me (heck, I don't even smoke). However, could I ask you why California wants to raise the age?
-
Laws are only for honest people. Underage kids who want to smoke will. So really the senate is just trying to make themselves feel better.
-
I didn't even know that there was an age before lol
-
Smoking should be banned. Its absolutely disgusting in my opinion
-
Can we move the drinking age back down while we're at it? Seriously I can go start on the path to lung cancer but I can't relax with a nice glass of whiskey after a hard days work.
