The Tobacco lobbyists should embrace the legalize Marijuana initiative, they would get a better product to sell, people could self medicate and maybe this society would mellow out.

we don't call it 'resin' in the 'before' stage do we?

We would call it "pitch", yes?

Eh, buy a bunch of little Zig-Zag cigarette rollers. They're pretty cheap, but they work.

On the conservative side I'm sure that's true, but most liberals who're opposed to her have very good reasons.

Yeah thought I remembered them considering it. That was when tobacco was still the "in thing" and profitable. It might be time for them to consider other product opportunities that their assets could support....

Does tobacco still have a strong market in Europe ?
