    By the way, American Spirit make cigarettes with Organic Tobacco. Also cigarette filters are not made out of plastic they are cotton. Check your facts before you make an arguement.

    Yes I know that they are bad for me but I really don't give a shit at this time. When it is time for me to quit I will. I periodically quit sometimes for years.

    it's the natives in the north of the americas that drove entire herds off cliffs cos they didn't have the wherewithall or patience to hunt efficiently.. the ones in the south merely ritually practiced human sacrifice and misused tobacco to the point where it fried their internal bits, which they mistook for a spiritual experience.

    the point was/is that the use of tobacco isn't in sync with nature... and neither were the first people who used it

    there has never been anything spiritual, good or wholesome about the production, use or marketing of tobacco... and there never will be.

    nicotine tar (slightly diluted) has also been used as a very effective insecticide for centuries.. finally banned because they realised that inhaling the vapour while using it will kill a human as well as an insect... and it's exactly the same stuff that fills a smokers lungs.... tho' i suppose on the plus side a smokers lungs will never get infested with greenfly.

    never heard of a single 18th century farmer/gardener claim to be a shaman after using it :( odd that :mickey:

    LOL.
    You are kidding right?
    Let's see. 20 items made out of plant leaves.
    Oh, and almost no paper at all there and it's made out of trees. LOL OMG!

    The package. Again, paper. Like from tree pulp.
    None of this will ever decompose. Yikes!!!!! Leaves and trees decomposing are terrible for the environment. I agree with you.

    And then there is that terrible thin minute piece of cellophane that is way smaller than any single thing that you can name in your own carbon footprint. LOL If you lit a match to that, there would be nothing left. Pure carbon dust. Less than burning a hair.

    Sorry about this. LOL but I just can't contain myself, on this one. With all of the actual terrible things in the world, like the gulf oil spill, and female genital mutilations throughout 90 percent of Africa and the middle-east, and people being murdered, and mammoth nuclear waste storage locations, we're all going to worry about leaves decaying? Really?

    Gimmi a break. :sunny:

    So the use of a naturally grown plant, is not "in sync" with nature?
    What may seem foolish to one man may be very spiritual to another. Just because you look at something a certain way doesn't mean that all cultures throughout history should be held to your opinions. A spiritual experience is rarely spiritual to the participants because of the direct action being preformed, but because of what they take away from the experience.

    This is getting kind of ridicilous indeed. Plastic filters? Smoking tobacco not in sync with nature? Where do you cross the line? Marihuana is in sync? Some of the haters here really lost it.

    I never understood why non-smokers exaggerated the fuck out of the smell of smoke and their intolerance for smokers. Bitch please - stop your crying :)

    As for me,

    I try to keep it on the low, have only smoked probably 2-3 years (waited till I was 22 in fact to really buy my own). Haven't gotten addicted yet! Lately taking a break, haven't bought a pack for almost a month now. Probably better that way before it becomes an expensive habit...

    Yes I agree with you.

    I think that we should let all of those people who want to make more and more laws and make more rules and more taxes all go live in one place and have a ton of laws and rules and stuff.

    They should allow those of us who want no laws at all and true freedom to go and live some place else and promise to never bother us ever again.

    You rule people can have your land with No Smoking. Just like all of American IS right! F U

    So just when will these people finally realize that they have destroyed America and freedom? Probably never.

    sounds like you grow your own tobacco and roll it into oak leaves. Uhhhhhh you forgot that cellophane isnt made from leaves and neither are all 20 of the filters. oh.. one more thing. the box is treated cardboard DESIGNED to not fall apart. Give ME the break.. you can't compare a natural tree leaf to ANY of that stuff.

    all I ask is that it makes it in to a proper recepticle. I don't want to take away peoples freedom to smoke.. I don't mind having a poof every once in a while but when you are walking through the woods and come across them, it's not pretty. Those aren't leaves my friend

    BlueLightRain, God, chill. Filters are cotten! Others have already stated that. Chill. I use to put ALL of my buts in my pockets and the shithead non-smokers really bitched that I smelled like shit. Because I was doing it RIGHT. What the Hell do we have to do to please you people????????? Shit soy?

    Go to your corner. Leave us Old real hippies alone.
    Cosmic Charley, How do you do? Go on Home, your ma ma's calling you.

    Hippies were never self righteous shitheads. Go Sufi dance at a dead concert. Hang with the zombies.

    Leave the real freaks alone. So, we can party in peace without narcs.

    Go away.

    And I already said that I had quit smoking three years ago. I guess that you can't read. What the Fuck more can I do for you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    ???????????????????????????? tell me, you f---ing Nazi.

    You are the prime example of what is wrong in the world.

    Intolerance. Closed minds. And Total control freak of others. Nazi!

    Please Grow.
    Think Dude.
    Fucking :peace:
