in SF they don't sell tobacco products at Walgreens. I think they made it so tobacco and pharmacies can't mix

in New Orleans I think they give kids a pack of black-n-milds and a box a bullets with school lunch

I believe it.




I think they should do more to limit the advertising as well.
Putting them out of eye sight is a good start though.

:mindblown:

It's called free will ! This "out of sight, out of mind" idea is fukkin stupid. People haven't stopped smoking since he raised the price from $6 to $14 :wtf: makes him think people are going to stop cause they can't see the pack. People are still going to fukkin smoke their brains away if they want. Sheeit, when I went to Singapore that had nasty pics of decaying gums and cheeks on the pack, muhfukkas still copped.

I fukking hate cigarettes. People weren't down with the ban of smoking cigarettes in public places but now laud him for it. People don't understand how disgusting the stench of cigarettes are to nonsmokers. I hear they do this in Toronto and the whole province of Ontario. @His_Excellence_Reincar

Remember when they got rid Joe Camel because he was a bad influence on kids, that sure stopped this previous generation from smoking.

Then you sir, are an idiot.

Just like someone else posted, they got rid of Joe Camel and the Marlboro man because in the 90's they argued "kids idolize these figures" but did that stop the next generation from smoking, no. Just because you "hide" them doesn't mean people will stop. Cigarettes are not an impulse buy, like a candy bar or magazine at the supermarket. People are not going to the store for milk, see the packs and say "oh let me try some cigs", they go to the store specifically for cigarettes. I would agree with a legislation that put graphic pics on the packs or did more to alert people of the long term dangers of smoking, but hiding the packs isn't gonna do shyt.
