For The Love Of Fags

Jacob Grier defends tobacco and lashes out against over-zealous, misguided regulation:

"Tobacco is a wondrous plant, capable of relaxing us, stimulating us, and offering a fantastic range of flavors. The times I've spent smoking an occasional pipe or cigar are among my favorite memories of the past few years, times of reflection, celebration, and deepening friendship. I wouldn't give them up for anything."

And since I am not yet an American, I can drop the f-bomb.
