    How often are americans really in such an emergency? Like, I keep seeing this whole “what are you gonna do when someone invades your home” thing from the gun nuts, and apparently now from the car nuts too.

    No one is going to invade your home to murder you. If someone breaks in, they just want your tv!

    By watching these lunatics it would seem everyone is constantly getting assaulted by people dead set on murdering them. Seriously; no one gives a shit about you! You’re not that fucking important Rambo. They just want to sell your tv for $30 at a pawn shop.







  • Who is this fantasy person who told you anyone is going to criminalize people for buying cigarettes?

    It’s incredibly clear if you bothered to read the article, that the retailer selling cigarettes to someone under the permitted age will recieve a fine. No one is going to prison for this. It will not be a criminal offence. The buyer won’t even face any consequenses, except maybe having their smokes confiscated.



  • There surely will become somewhat of a black market, but not in the same way as weed or harder drugs. Smoking doesn’t really give you a buzz except for the first few times, so people won’t go to the black market for the effect, but rather to keep the withdrawels at bay. It would seem incredibly silly to buy cigarettes like people buy weed, when all it really does for a first timer is taste horrible, make you cough, and if you actually manage to inhale, make you a bit dizzy. Sure, some people from 2009 and onwards will start to smoke, but it’ll be a whole lot less people than today.
