    Why would it be harder to stop if you are not allowed to buy them? The people who are already old enough to smoke will be able to continue.

      No, I’m not saying “keep selling them legally,” I’m saying “don’t criminalize posession/usage.” Lock up the people selling, not the people buying/using.

      If you make it harder to get their fix than it is to quit, you make it harder for sellers to keep clients and eventually suffocate that whole market.
