Notice that the warnings found on cigars are warnings that speak of how cigars could cause health problems whereas the cigarette warnings show how cigarettes will cause health problems. Also, I could not find a warning specific to pipe tobacco. Is there no real Surgeon General's Warning on pipe tobacco? On my McClelland tins I have noticed the "State of California" warning but nothing else. Just thought this was interesting.
 
We Have warnings on all our pipe tobacco here, they are these crappy decals that the retailer is forced to stick on all imported and local pipe tobacco..... I wish they would stop doing that, for one I am not breastfeeding so my smoke cannot harm my infant!!!
Besides, it just makes a classy tin look bad....... to make matters worse they put it in bags instead of tins!!!!!
Here is some Condor I just picked up for Pipetongue (Ken)




 
The people in power must protect us from ourselves. ;)

I guess it create jobs. :?:
 
I guess they'll be putting hazard warning labels next on motor vehicles and heavy industrial machinery and processing factories, not to mention oil distilleries and electrical power plants. Wait... shouldn't they have started with those first and foremost? Do I detect a highly selective enforcement pattern here? No, no... I guess it's just me being meanspirited and ignorant.
 
And what about New York Taxis? Or sausage and pepper sandwiches at the state fair. :twisted:
