Once you get to this level, why not just ban the products? Yeah sure freedom blablablah but it's not like you can buy any drug you want currently anyway. It seems ridiculous to allow stores to sell a product that you then are basically telling people not to buy.
- Cigarettes will never be banned. Governments make way too much cash on TAX etc to bangoldieboy

What if all that money was just put towards cancer research and in the meantime everyone can make their own decisions?

We've had them here for a while now. You just turn the packet over so you can't see these rather disturbing images :o)

- are you proposing getting rid of alcohol?CanHazQBN
- ...in a spoon?prophet
- im surprised Meth doesn't do much harm to others, when you consider the toxicity of fumes & chemicals from meth labsCanHazQBN
- looking through the same lens, it would seem appropriate. however, i do love a drink at the right moment.jetSkii
- < this chart is all wrong. the guy who made it is smoking crack. which is really safe, based by him. GREAT?!akrok
- He's saying crack is safe??? it's third on the list.CanHazQBN
- according to this chart, he must be a meth user, instigating that they do not harm anyone.jetSkii
- this is BS, Cannabis over GHB, LSD and Steroids, and what the fuck is butane? the lighter gas?moIdero
- seems pretty accurate to mescarabin
- this all seems pretty common sensescarabin
- common sense. lol. straight out of the ass, maybe. lol.akrok
- I think I'd take my chances with a little weed over LSD.CyBrain
- How is it common sense that alcohol is worse than cigs?ukit
- Drunk driving maybe, but on the harm to yourself measureukit
- Last time I checked alcohol didn't almost inevitably cause terminal cancerukit
- lol, how do they calculate the "harm"? Mephedrone, methodone and benzos are addictive and cause a lot of health issues. Cannabis is not addictive and doesn't cause health issues...johfiner
- health problems. Cannabis is not addictive and does not cause health problems...johfiner
- LSD is not as dangerous as you may have been led to believe. you can't OD on it and it does no damagescarabin

i don't smoke, and i hate second-hand smoke more than anything, but i think this is ridiculous

Cigs are getting unbelievably expensive anyway.

don't think that approach is working. needs a better idea / solution.

I find it amusing (and sad) when I see smokers, who, in their heads still think smoking is attractive. The way they hold it in their hands and blow the smoke a certain way. Like they want to be seen as badasses or something. Whats up James Dean. But all it does is let everyone know that you were weak-minded enough to fall into the peer-pressure of smoking. It's an acquired taste... nobody ever started smoking because they enjoyed it... everyone started so that they could fit in to some sort of group.
- it's akin to posting opinion insisting it be treated as facthonestly
- Untrue. I tried smoking just so I would know what it was like. I instantly fell in love. No peers to blame.nb
- yeah, no shit it's an opinion. people can only post facts on this forum?CanHazQBN
- nb, you probably fell in love with the image of yourself smoking. it makes you feel older, cooler.CanHazQBN
- You actually liked the taste of it from the first drag??CanHazQBN
- Come on...CanHazQBN
- Have you ever smoked, 'CanHazQBN'?detritus
- @CHQ. Did you used to smoke? Or, have you lost anyone to cancer caused by smoking?goldieboy
- i didn't start to be cool. i started because it let me take breaks at workscarabin
- i have. lots of things.CanHazQBN
- < (to detritus)CanHazQBN
- no i've never lost anyone to smoking.CanHazQBN
- I'm interested in where your dis-taste for smokers comes from?goldieboy
- i don't have a distaste for every smoker. just the ones i talked about. hell, most of my friends smoke...CanHazQBN
- ...they can do whatever they want, and i never scold them about it... they're all adults.CanHazQBN
- I loved the flavour. I loved the smell of unlit cigarettes. I loved the high I got from the nicotine.nb

They should package them in freshly removed infected lungs.

I think cigarettes should be given away free with DVDs of Mad Men.

Actually, the best solution would be to force the sales of cigars with cigarettes which must be incased in humidors. Also a new license must be purchased with the approval of a large walkin humidor.
This would change the perception of cigarettes as NOT a "young" and "cool" thing to do. An easy solution, rather than enforce BAD design on packages.
