Fire Safe Cigarettes… Part 1

Author: Lucifer Jones | Filed under: Uncategorized

Greetings my fellow minions Lucifer Jones here, I wanted to take some time and inform you all about something that you as a smoker should be AWARE and CAUTIOUS about…

FIRE SAFE CIGARETTES OR..     FIRE DEADLY CIGARETTES

^ Main Pro Site ^                 OR..          ^ Random Anti Site ^

What exactly is that you might ask?

Well if you are a smoker there is a good chance you may already be  smoking them!

Here’s a quick rundown on them:

Fire-safe cigarettes are a proven, practical, and effective way to eliminate the risk of cigarette-ignited fires. The use of cigarettes that have a reduced propensity to burn when left unattended will help prevent tens of thousands of cigarette-ignited fires each year.

Are They Safe?

Well of course not their CIGARETTES! Your lighting something on fire and sucking it into your body… granted you and I KNOW THIS and we even accept this for whatever reason, but Sadly I can’t telly you 100% if these new FSC smokes are “safer” , as there are MANY conflicting ‘reports’ regarding what has been put into the cigs to make them “fire safe”

WHERE ARE THEY BEING SOLD?

According to the official website, 99.8% of the US population is now or soon protected from cigarette fires thanks to state-passage of fire-safe cigarette legislation.

Red states = States that ARE selling (nothing but) FSC packs / cartons now

Green States = Getting ready to (and it’s outdated as Michigan started yesterday to stock shelves with the FSC smokes)

Yellow = Have Not Done  Anything Yet (Thanks Wyoming!)

SO WHAT’S THE BIG DEAL?

WHAT’S IN THEM TO MAKE THEM ‘SAFER’?

Here’s one of many videos that you can find on Youtube (I know not the most reputable news site lol) that explains the NEW CHEMICALS that are used to “make your smokes safer”  I have ONE huge problem with this video, and it’s due solely to the fact the maker of the video SELLS CUSTOM TOBACCO, however it does not change the fact that the gentleman displays the actual MSDS data sheet information on the actual chemicals found in the new FSC smokes.

HOW DO I KNOW MY SMOKES ARE FSC???

fscmarkingslarge 300x208 Fire Safe Cigarettes... Part 1 Each and every pack (and carton) will bear the 3 letters FSC on them, if your pack has these letters congratulations your breathing in many new and exciting toxins into your lungs such as aluminum, an active  ingredient of mothballs,  Ethylene Vinyl Acetate and more.

Your best line of defense is to throw them away and go out and buy a bag of tobacco and rolling papers (or tubes)

Then you might not get the nice new trauma that has been linked to the above named chemicals that are now being introduced to you.

WHAT CAN I DO TO STOP  THIS?

Not to be a total downer here,  but pretty much NOTHING, your ‘owners’ have made this choice FOR YOU, and I highly doubt they will reverse it, they HATE SMOKERS, for whatever reason (most of them ARE SMOKERS TOO!) And they have gone out of their way to tax the hell out of you, limit where you can smoke, how you can smoke, what you can smoke etc etc.

There is an online petition located HERE

The organizers of that petition also have a BLOG HERE

And I also will be putting up more posts about this attack on smokers rights!

Until next time…  HAIL ME!
