If you live in a big city, then unless you’re using it for more than camping, you’re absolutely wasting money (your money), and polluting unnecessarily.

If you don’t live in a big city, then I totally get it. You need a bigger vehicle to deal with undeveloped rural roads, and adverse weather conditions year round. Personally, I’m a hunter, so I need my big truck nearly every weekend during hunting season, and in the off season I love to camp as well.

It’s quite literally never been essential.

IP?

Tornado? In Ireland? Am I crazy, or is that not normal?

Amsterdam seems like a nice place to visit.

Jfc, I would pull my kid out of whatever school these kids wind up in. No way I want my children associating with them.

I will move on, but only because you’ve started arguing on bad faith. Do better.

Whether or not they have the right, was never the argument here, it’s always been about whether they should or not.

Dodging my question because it backs you into a corner really doesn’t help your side either.

Except they also have to step on your rights, and body autonomy in order to do so.

Let me aak you this as well… Do you support the war on drugs?

I think you missed something. Banning cigarettes takes money away from healthcare, it doesn’t put more into it.

Smokers wind up paying almost 10x what they cost the system over their lives. Banning that income will only make things worse.

Yes, paid for by the exorbitant taxes on cigarettes.

FDA’s job is to tell corporations what they can and can’t put in your body. You’re still welcome to seek out those poisons and consume them. Cigarettes should be no different.

To maintain infrastructure.

Seatbelts save significant medical costs that the government has to pay for. Cigarettes do not, as the medical cost has already been paid by said smoker 10 times over due to outrageous taxes.

Smoking bans are a severe government overreach, and I will celebrate every time one gets slapped down.

None, they all had lives.

Seems like a good thing to me. Let people decide for themselves, it’s not the government’s job to tell them what they can and can’t put in their body.

Their journalistic integrity. You are no one, therefore your word carries no weight. Link sources, or don’t expect people to believe you.

That threw me off too. I’m still struggling with it tbh.

The one in this post and a platypus? I thought that was pretty clear.

Spines of a hedgehog, snout of an anteater, and feet of a mole. Is this thing trying to out-ugly the platypus?

On a more serious note, they’re both egg laying mammals, is it possible they’re related?
