Ciggarettes

  1. Why do people hate ciggarettes? I mean, I don't smoke, but my friends do. Random people tell them its bad. Everyone knows , It is on the box. But, the only reason we are in America is because of the tobacco trade. It creates jobs and curbs the population if you want to look at it like that. If you don't like it, Don't smoke.
     
  2. Why do people hate cigarettes? Cause it kills our friends and families at higher rates than anything else. Your argument that it creates jobs and is a good trade is pretty redundant when you look at the millions upon millions of dollars spent on healthcare for dying smokers. And besides; a moral view shouldn't be effected by money issues.

    Although I do love me a fine ciggy after a blaze..
     
  3. There's nothing moral or immoral about cigarettes. Smoking is a personal choice.
     
  4. Why do people hate cigarettes? Idk cuz theyre fuckin delicious! Make you fell soooo great after a stressful day, or a good meal, or a good lay, or just about anything really...
    :hello: cigarettes
     
  5. Probably becuase like an above poster said, It kills.
    -Smokers get smoke breaks
    -They Stink
    -Health Reasons
    -Cigarette butt Pollution
    -Second hand Smoke

    I'm sure they're are 100 more reasons.

    Instead of typing them, or trying to think about them.. im goin' outside for a Marlboro Red.
     
  6. True, smoking is a personal choice. That doesn't mean there aren't any morals related to smoking, though. i.e. working for an industry that kills hundreds of thousands of people a year? That is subject to moral discretion. :)
     
  7. gimme my mofuck newports
     
  8. I like making a cig just about any time of the day, You only live once my freinds
    and youve got to enjoy every moment, smoking or not.
     
  9. I was gonna post about some newports but now I can only quote swisher because nobody can say shit as badass as swisher on this board.

    damn it ***** i said give me my mofuckin newps :p
     
  10. Yea ***** newports yummyyyy
     
  11. haha diggin the new signature......when we gonna start makin some $$$ g
     
  12. one question for the newport smokers tho...
    shorts or 100's?
    i feel like they changed the recipe of them shits
     
  13. if you're getting newports you gotta go with the 100's.

    i myself am a camel unfiltered man, or samson rolling tobacco is good shit too.
     
  14. 100s. they're different. thats why i started smoking kool but i miss newports...
     
  15. I dont hate them, i just choose not to do them because to me, they arent worth it. I dislike the taste and smell, but i dont have a problem with people who smoke them.
     
  16. It's really not though. The automobile industry kills hundreds of thousands of people a year. The pharmaceutical industry kills hundreds of thousands of people a year. They are still services that are in demand, and those demands are still going to be filled. Is the need to get from point A to point B faster any more moral than one's need (whether real or perceived) to treat their anxiety/depression/boredom/whatever else with nicotine?
     
  17. Newport 100's suck IMO. I suck down like 10 shorts a day though :p

    What I think is funny is tabacco companies don't even try to hide the fact that smoking kills anymore. I mean, what's the point? EVERYTHING gives you cancer. The freakin' sun gives you cancer.

    Smoking just dosen't seem that bad when compared to a lot of other things these days. Let's stop the war in Iraq, gang violence, global warming, baby-shaking, and foot fungus before we launch an attack on smoking, please.
     
  18. I don't see the tobacco industry as immoral because there will always be a demand for tobacco. Even if the industry was "moral" and stopped selling nicotine.. New businesses would pop up.

    Make it illegal? Black market.

    It comes down to a personal choice. And I don't bitch at smokers, it just seems uncool. I wouldn't want them to bitch at me for my personal drug choices :D
     
  19. I'll smoke maybe 10 to 20 cigarettes a year. American Spirit for the win! But never ever will I smoke the corporate brands ... Marlboro, Camels, etc. Those companies are trying to give you cancer. Check out all the extra chemicals they add ...
