[H] Smoking (was To all my Dell hating...)

[Julian Hale]

We can all see how well outlawing drugs has worked, or alcohol in the 
'20s.  Prohibition creates more crime and social problems than the drug 
itself.  If you outlaw tobacco, people will just start growing it in their 
houses, yards, national forests, etc.  Ever seen a booby trapped pot 
plantation on public land?  That's what will happen if you outlaw tobacco, 
only the plant will change.  On top of that, imagine someone getting 10 
years in prison for growing and selling tobacco... does that sound even 
remotely reasonable?

You want them problem solved? Outlaw the product since besides age & what 
location you can smoke in there are no limits or effects like alcohol.
