Those aren't the folks that worry me. The folks that worry me are the ones that are voting Trump (as they put it) because "Biden is going to ban flavored cigarettes so no more Menthol".

Welcome to Germany. Many young people voted for a liberal party that only has the interest of the rich elite in mind. Because they said they would legalize Marijuana.

Spoiler: They do everything they can for rich people, Marijuana is still not legal.

Bidens playing that card right now for the election year.

Never mind that democrats have done that for like 20 years

My state legalized it a year or two ago though, and more and more are every day so I'm not sure what point you're really making.

Vote democrat, they legalized weed?

edit: I was being facetious because fuck the DNC. My state actually legalized it by constitutional amendment after the people voted on it, no thanks to any political party, it was outside groups organizing and gathering signatures.

Those folks are just conservatives pretending that they would have ever voted for Biden in the first place.

If menthol cigarettes are banned, it will signal the end of america as we know it. George Washington will be screaming in terror from his grave. "NOOO. LOOK AT WHAT THEYVE DONE TO MY CREATION!!! THE MENTHOLS NOOOOOOO" The only proper course of action would be to clone the founding fathers, demolish all of the United States, and let them start over.

Banning menthols would probably have helped me quit earlier. I thought non-menthols were too harsh when I smoked.
