Smokers bane. Well, the newest bane.

How many of you smokers out there have noticed the change that occurred last December? Well that is when Minnesota changed laws to mandate the new 'fire-safe cig's'. As a smoker I can say that not only do they taste like shit but also are very frustrating. I for one don't enjoy lighting my cig 2 or 3 times per smoke. These laws have been spreading around the country and, like public smoking, will move like wild fire. This article talks about the ins and outs of these laws, focus on the lack of data that supports the idea that these things will save lives and stop fires.

I also find some issue with the government putting MORE chemicals in cigs. STOP THE SMOKER HATE! Please. If this bothers you as much as it does me then consider this meaningless petition below.

Repeal Fire Safe Cigarette Laws
