I'd be okay with it if it was just for e-cigs and not real cigs. Freakin' wimps can't handle real smoke... Pffft!

Honestly... when I was in Boy Scouts (early to late 70's), we used to smoke small sections of grapevine. It had a very campfiresque note to it. With a campfiresque start and finish.

Hilarious. People will just buy them online. Remember when Indiana "cracked down" on e-juice? I've had one company that briefly followed the law and then they ignored it like everyone else.

I raised my son with some character and sense. He's taken the right path so far, graduate HS, get employed, not just a McJob, but he has a career path going. I fully expect he'll do the marriage before children thing. As a backup, if things go wrong, he had to put up with me, so he'll know better than send a kid for me to raise. I'd be the grandpa that would teach the kid to light its farts, cuss like a sailor in Russian, that kind of thing.

I am interested. Could she provide a list?

I think that refers to Jim Crow laws.

Ah....dig up the corpses of the politicians who passed those laws and tax them for reparations.

 

[LockStocksAndBarrel]

If you had a relative that fought for the union army that freed the slaves, do you get a cut of their reparations?

When the state controls the health care system it also controls how it's administered.

You're right, it can't be real.

Where would they expect the victim to get scissors?

Oh no. I learned on INGO that a person owns all the good and bad things that people of that identity have ever done or ever will do. So, like, if you're 'Murican, you literally participated in the revolutionary war and are entitled to all the accolades as those who were alive.

So. If you're white. You literally owned slaves. Identity is timeless. I'll bet the first white people ever, never knew they'd be personally responsible for eventually fighting in a civil war where they'd carry rebel flags and kill countrymen for the right to own people.

But. You say. What about the white people who fought on the other side? A reasonable question... Let us ponder that.

Why is INGO showing a broken photo icon in place of that image?

But anyway, why not? I mean. If acid attacks are just a part of society, might as well have some public information campaigns. Maybe San Francisco should have information campaigns for how to properly step over human **** on the sidewalks. Because, you know, that's just part of society. Whatdyagonnado?

40 acres and a Lambo sounds good.

Having been burned by acids in my line of work I can say that they have the chain of events backwards. Maybe that's just how limeys see the world now, contact government first for anything.

I have never been burned by acid, but common sense tells you to treat first. Funny that they even have a poster. Pitiful that they have no common sense.

Back in the day, you didn't contact the authorities... You just put on some Pink Floyd and waited for it to end.

 

[Mr Evilwrench]

I've been burned by concentrated hydrochloric, sulfuric, and nitric acids among other things. Nitric was the worst. As long as it wasn't in my eyes, after I'd pulped the bastige's face, I'd do #2 then #3, but then I have a blade I could use. I'd call 911 here, but I'm pretty sure I wouldn't call 999 there. I'd be liable to be charged with assault and battery or attempted murder or something.

I hate to say this, but you have a point.

I also learned on INGO that one can declare themselves a III%er having never participated in the Revolutionary War and having conveniently adopted the winning side after the fact.

Ergo...

If we can get retroactive cred for having "been" a Revolutionary Patriot, we should get retroactive condemnation for having "been" a slave owner (governor?) or other beneficiary of slavery.
