By having a little baccy not very often this will string their addiction out and cause them mental and psychical anguish during the periods they cant have a puff. The thought of filthy crims going thru addiction withdrawal practically all day if they get a little bit makes me very happy. Victims of their crimes would be happy to know they are suffering. See there is a silver lining in every cloud.	prefect (6291)

They'll be able to smell the use of cigarettes while they currently can't smell the pot?	Cato (6936)

Hardly a National voter By that logic drinkers must be lobotomy patients on the dole? Goddammit! I don't want to be on the dole! :lol:	rob_on_guitar (4196)
1186415	2011-03-16 21:21:00	Sorry prefect, National voter and inhaler of smoke here. :xmouth: Anyway, smokers by no way cause a strain on the health system in NZ, the amount tobacco is taxed here in NZ is insane, all the stupid bastards drinking/eating too much and having to get health care in regard to those issues cause a much larger strain on the health system than smokers ever will. When was the last time you heard of someone smoking too much, then going for a drive and killing innocent people? Or beating their wife etc etc Not trying to ban alcohol (I love it too much :D) but we all do things to ourselves that ultimately ends up speeding up the date of our demise - as long as we don't harm anyone else in the process - who cares?

1186417	2011-03-16 21:30:00	I have just about had a guts full of smokers at work I strain myself not to whack the offender over the head accidentally with a crowbar. The sort of person that smokes now days must be of low intelligence and normally has a low paid job. Hardly a National voter I smoke. Therefore I am of low intelligence and have a low paid job. And of course am not a national voter. I have to say though, I do not ever find myself wanting to bash people, with or without crowbars. Perhaps an anger management course would help you.	pctek (84)
1186418	2011-03-16 21:41:00	Wanting to crowbar smoker in the face is a little different to actually doing it. When carting hay bales in the summer I have said I would kill for a beer but not actually done it yet.	prefect (6291)
1186419	2011-03-16 21:49:00	I could say something about second-hand smoke here... I understand this, and its the arrogance of the smoker that is to be blamed. I always stand away from people when smoking, and when I see people sitting at bus stops etc blowing smoke around all the non-smokers it pisses me off. Consideration is a 2-way road.	Bozo (8540)
