Dom Posted November 15, 2018 Author Share Posted November 15, 2018 I'm also a smoker but always it gets under my skin seeing people just toss them on the ground out the windows of their cars/trucks even on their front lawns.Iv'e even seen them tossed in the water while fishing.I also agree there are other more important things in life to deal with was just venting.

crappyice Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 It wasn't intended to be for "only smokers":angry:. It was meant for EVERYONE that leaves their crap in the woods. And sorry if I ruffled your feathers. I never realized you were so sensitive. I hope I worded this properly.Yes. That was better....sort of...but good enough for you. As I stated, I am not a smoker so I am not sensitive to your comment at all which was originally disparaging towards smokers. Next time I will know what you meant as opposed to what you actually typed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Business as usual. And people complain about renewable energy getting too many subsidies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just responded to your comment on Amazon. Perhaps you should stay on the subject if you do not want others to veer off subject. And I also welcome jobs to NY but not at the expense of 1.7 billion dollars from the tax payers. And good luck this weekend in the woods. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 I found the whole governmental experiment in citizen behavioral management through taxation to be kind of interesting. The government learned that they can successfully use our tax dollars to modify human behavior. They found out that they can dictate behavior of their constituents simply by mounting a large enough campaign (taxpayer funded) against a behavior and then taxing the behavior out of existence. It makes you wonder why they didn't simply take the honest approach and declare nicotine a "controlled substance" and pass laws that declared it illegal. It was interesting to see how everyone (myself included) immediately fell into lockstep as the government taxed cigarettes almost out of existence. I wonder when it will occur to them to use the same tactics on guns, ammo, and accessories. I know that it has been threatened with diet, and is what is behind the gas taxes. Just think of all the tempting targets that there are out there for this kind of tactic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmark Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Buddy asked me, "Hey, do you smoke after sex?" Thought about it a minute, and replied, "I don't know, I never looked." Also... for the record, I never drink and drive. I pull over, take a swig, then go on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
