Pechacek notes that more than a fourth of white, male high school students report having used smokeless tobacco products in the last month. Overall, nearly 7% of all U.S. high school students already use smokeless tobacco.
Last I checked, most high school students graduate at the age of 18.
US Tobacco promotion to children is alive and real. They don't care if we quit or die. They are already replacing us. They are recruiting kids to replace the quitters or their dead and former consumers.
Think about it. 3% of the american populations chews tobacco. 7% of high schoolers chew.
Reasoning: they are addicting 4% more than the national average. This isn't by chance...its by design.
If we can get to the kids before UST can get to them, we can win this battle. It starts by quitting ourselves and not letting any child see us use or promote it.
Then we tell the truth! Never back down or shy away but stand and call bull shit on the UST companies, the buyout deal the government accepted and all the shame and sadness that is nicotine. Filthy, dirty business. Put a suit on Mr. CEO of UST's...you still reek of shame and disgust.
Seriously If I didn't care I would ignore but I can't stand the scum. I hate this weed and the justification of snakes that entice children.
