CONSIDERATION FOR THOSE WHO ARE ADDICTED TO TOBACCO
Traditionally, people enduring ongoing pain went to a doctor and
received prescriptions for painkilling medication. That is how it was
done. Since younger generations have come along with new ideas in
almost all fields, it is now legal for special people to enjoy the
use of "medical" marijuana. Or, if they are strident activists who
believe they are a cut above the rest of us, they simply light up
their joints on the steps of a legislature. A very large proportion
of the younger generations use this illegal narcotic and officials
turn a blind eye. Maybe similar consideration might be allowed for
those who are addicted to tobacco.
