GROW YOUR OWN.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75036512


You can even give your tobacco menthol flavor too.
 Quoting: oiko


You can't grow your own tobacco, it's against the law. Only big tobacco companies can row tobacco in a couple of states. NC and VA I think.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79546697
BS. I know many people that grow their own tobacco.
 Quoting: Endtimewatchman10


Yeah it's an awesome ornamental plant that repels mosquitoes. You can also make your own natural pesticide from it. Totally legal as long it's not a patented variety. The wild tobacco is sacred to the native Indians (Nicotiana rustica)..

Sorry for rambling..

Black people smoke menthol cigarettes. I do too, but I'm not black. Newports. You better think twice about this one Kamala. They won't be happy. They'll be heading to DC to find you. No joke.

Re: Smoke em if you DON'T got em. Biden's plan to ban nicotine and menthol cigarettes
Lowering nicotine levels to "non-addictive" levels means current smokers will need to buy and smoke 20 packs of cigarettes per smoke break to get their fix. This is a boon to both the big tobacco industry and to the cancer industry.

Banning menthols primarily impacts black people.
Watch what happens if that plan succeeds. Can we say riots bigger than if Chauvin gets acquitted?

The Biden administration is considering requiring tobacco companies to lower the nicotine in all cigarettes sold in the U.S. to levels at which they are no longer addictive, according to people familiar with the matter.

Administration officials are considering the policy as they approach a deadline for declaring the administration’s intentions on another tobacco question: whether or not to ban menthol cigarettes.

The Food and Drug Administration must respond in court by April 29 to a citizens’ petition to ban menthols by disclosing whether the agency intends to pursue such a policy. The Biden administration is weighing whether to move forward on a menthol ban or a nicotine reduction in all cigarettes—or both, the people familiar with the matter said.

The White House and the FDA didn’t immediately comment Monday.

Biden is the Tobacco Police now... Unbelievable! How long have our Troops been sent to bring Opiates home? There are so many deliberate DRUGS in the US deliberately!! I recall some years ago now wondering where this new Heroin & Fentanyl problem in America came from, as it wasn’t here when I was younger! How about BAN SUGAR!! It causes diabetes, cavities & obesity.., It’s addictive too!!

*** About 5 years ago, I recall several people online saying they believe Tobacco had an impact on the brain that prohibited people from being Mind Controlled! They could also more easily SEE THROUGH the LIES! Now that Biden is portraying a CONCERN for American’s Addiction?? One has to ask WHY are they really doing this ??? Additionally, Hunter Biden has HUGE Addiction issues way beyond a Nicotine problem. Hey Joe! Focus on your son’s enormous problems & NOT the population!! It’s really NONE of your business!! It is an outrageous statement of control though... Wow, people will be so, so angry!

Brief Summary:

The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) epidemic represents a major therapeutic challenge. The highly contagious severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-COV-2) and the long duration of the disease have led to a massive influx of patients admitted in health services and intensive care units.

According to current knowledge, there are no treatments that prevent the spread of the infection, especially in exposed populations, or the disease progression to a severe form.

Daily active smokers are infrequent among outpatients or hospitalized patients with COVID-19. Several arguments suggest that nicotine is responsible for this protective effect via the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR).

Nicotine may inhibit the penetration and spread of the virus and have a prophylactic effect in COVID-19 infection.

However, the epidemic is progressing throughout French territory and new variants (in particular the "English B1. 1.7 variant of SARS-COV-2") much more contagious run a risk of accelerating the epidemic in the population. The anti-SARS-COV-2 vaccines recently launched (or being evaluated) represent great hope in this health crisis, but trials were only able to show their effectiveness on symptomatic forms of SARS-COV-2 infection. On the one hand, the vaccination compaign for the entire population requires many months,which leaves many unprotected subjects waiting. In addition, there is currently no evidence of a protective role of vaccines against asymptomatic forms of COVID-19 and therefore on SARS-COV-2 transmission. Finally, the nicotine patches may protect people in hight-risk areas/periods until they are vaccinated (if they accept it and are eligible for it) and in the post-vaccination weeks necessary for the effectiveness of the vaccine,which reinforces the importance of evaluating this alternative prevention strategy, in the context of the arrival of vaccines

The Nicotine information is helpful, but the “Vaccinations” do NOT provide great HOPE & there has NOT been a Covid “Health Crisis” or Pandemic as every lethal condition & deaths for the last year has been Covid listed on Death Certificates with a $13,000 BRIBE attached! Currently there is a NEW HEALTH Crisis linked to the Covid injections that are NOT vaccinations, nor properly Tested!!
