If only we had a smaller central government, maybe that would address a lot of issues facing our community, or maybe it's the perceptions of the ordinary person that needs to be adjusted? I find the open hypocrisy of alcohol and tobacco to be very troubling indeed. Two of the worst scourges of humanity are legal and freely available to everyone, including children and all society can do is turn a blind eye to the death statistics, while raising a heavy hand to marijuana. This mentality can only be battled on the same front that it marches on. We as smokers have to rise to the occasion and demonstrate what we are willing to do to address this.
