Kids and Cigars- SOFA KING WHAT

The FDA is getting set to regulate the cigar side of tobacco. Anti tobacco advocates feel they have chased all the kids to cigars. Now they are hell bent on getting their fingers into one of the last areas they can. Quick check, is it illegal to sell tobacco to a minor? Oh, snap, it is. I don't care if their ads show a 5 year old puffing on a Barney colored cigar that smells like grape flavored dung. As long as they didn't sell her the stupid thing, go away.

You can have my eggs when you pry them.....

What in the hell is this crap? Eggs are as bad as smoking? Why aren't they looking at all the people who don't have heart attacks and eat eggs? Shouldn't the stinkin' nannies encourage eating stuff that is bad for you? Saves all that Social Security money.
Next week, the exact opposite study will be released, of course.
So was this study sponsored by whiney vegans or the beef alliance? Of course some fucktarded* lawmaker** will rush to intro a bill....


*spell check on my phone likes that word.
** cough, Bloomberg, cough.

Added: I hate to reiterate, but are they sure they aren't looking at symptoms rather than the problem?

Secret cigars

FDA wants to crack down on cigars and the racist sexist homophobic cancer-pro-ic? sales practices employed by tobacco shops. They claim juris-my-diction from the 'herp derp zomg teh kidz might be smokin act of 2009'; The nanny that was the sponsor of the bill did a spittake, claiming he never thought that unelected busybodies would rush out and try to regulate something that the 1% might like. (among others, ahem)
Wow, a Feral agency 'finding' new powers 'hidden' in poorly written, unneeded laws. Sounds like a Progressive feature, not a bug. Guess the Feral Agency rule is 'f!ck you, we are the government' not, 'well, it doesn't say we can enforce it, guess we need to go regulate something we are expressly allowed to.'

*title refers to the fact that for some damned, fish brained reason customers would have to choose cigars from a black and white catalog- no smelling or feeling the merchandise allowed. And the windows would have to be blacked out so no children could see the evil tobacco products being sold. For shame!
