Novotny and Slaughter … want the tobacco industry to be held legally responsible for clean-up costs associated with their products...

How about the low-information types among us STOP using the outside as their ashtray!

It is illegal to liter, yet every smoker thinks absolutely nothing about throwing his butt out the car window. Same thing with those walking around who trow their butt on the ground. If I did that with my gum wrapper I'd have the eco nazis all over me and I would correctly get a ticket. Why is it different for smokers?

Smokers are special. They believe that due to their addiction society should genuflect to their needs 24/7.

No you wouldn't and I can show you a park where I play ball that is trashed out every morning............

Here's a typical example of what we see every morning we show up to play: Since there's no cigarette butts to be seen, this must be one of your own "HIGH information" voter's hangout.......

Tell you what my brother, ban all plastic beverage containers, chips bags, newspapers and plastic bags THEN COME TALK TO ME ABOUT CIGARETTE BUTTS!!! ....

Fair enough?

Every smoker? Not true. Hopefully I'm not the only one who doesn't litter butts or anything else. Stick the butts back in the pack or carry a tiny lidded ashtray and discard them in the trash later.

As for the smoke nazis, they need to care about way more important "crimes" than targeting smokers, IMO.

Some of us “low information types” that smoke do not even
smoke in their car or house, and therefore do not throw
butts out the window.
Furthermore, those that do disgusts me as much as you.

However, it also disgusts me that some people are so “low
information” that they think all smokers are “low information types”.
