I will kicked out of here if I go on my rant....Sorry your father, mother, son or grandson died in the name of freedom. But this is the best now for you..... KISS MY ASS you C#ock$@2$##@@ers.... I'm a bit emotional right now.... If I get kicked off, I can dig it....

I read a good portion of it but am at a loss for what exactly this means for cigars. About all I got is a large warning sticker.

I'm guessing more details are still to come but yea this is the biggest part of all this that seems clear as of now. Giant warning labels aren't that big a deal.
One of the things I'm interested in that hasn't and probably won't get brought up is how leaf is cased and processed. It could be as simple as some rum and a little pineapple but they could also be using a slew of things most wouldn't want anything to do with. If regulation is going to force them to reveal if leaf is getting anything other than DW then it may be somewhat of a silver lining. Still doesn't excuse the rest of the BS though.

Wait, what, nobody else is using a quality Churchill to roll up a quarter?

You never know I guess. I shouldn't belittle the high class stoners.

However, this maybe just what we needed to reign in Guhka's absurdly extensive line of cigars.

I lol'ed

I was fairly certain this would have a few hurdles to go over but it looks pretty bad for the little guy. Reading some of the comments from the talking heads at the FDA, its pretty clear what this is really about.

Could be pretty ugly.

It's going to really suck a$$ if the number of boutique brands on the market drops drastically and prices sore. If you haven't yet, go to the CRA website and fill out the petition letters. This will send letters to your senators and local rep. Not sure how much it will actually achieve, but every little bit helps.

Thanks mate....letters sent...

Seems like I picked a bummer of a day to re-visit the site... Damn.

Make sure you contact your representatives, tell them that we won't accept the FDA overreaching. They will be reined in, or the reps will go home, plain and simple
