Nicotine is a stimulant, which is a type of drug.

But to each his own.

so is caffeine. snus has a hundred times less carcinogens than cigarettes. sweden has the lowest smoking rates and lowest lung canger rates in europe, yet high rates of tobacco use (snus). it's steam cured not fire cured so less carcinogens are produced. my uncle has done it for over 25 years without any problems while baseball players who chew develop problems within a couple years sometimes. i'm not saying it isn't bad, i'm saying it's less bad. it's like doing a hundred in a volvo on a two lane road vs. doing a hundred in a chevy aveo on a two lane road. doing a hundred in a volvo is less unsafe. :lol:

So your basing something off a "Study" with two groups. Group A has one person and group B has thousands. Snus is no safer than a can of skoal.

Ciggaretes are not a drug

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

... I can't post enogh LOL's so I won't.

The most widely abused psychotropic substance on the planet is caffiene.

I'd rather be on the horse and trying to quit, then addicted to nicotene and trying to quit.

it wasn't a study, it was a fast reply. less carcinogens = less cancer. not no cancer, but less of a chance for cancer. plus it tastes better and it has more nicotine per gram than a pack of cigarettes has per cig.

I use Göteborgs Rape (pronounced Yettebories Rapye) also, I like the No. 2 lingonberry flavor.

Just ordered a tin (case? pack? can?) of this, kind of intrigued by it... can't wait to give it a shot, hopefully I'll like it; definitely could come in handy while at work :)

that's my favorite one! it's all i order most of the time

if it was $4.40 it was a tin and would last about a week if you use it lightly (24 in the tin 2-4 times a day)

I'm with you on the LOL's

But as for caffiene, it is abused? :P

it has more nicotine per gram than a pack of cigarettes has per cig.

But why would you want to use something that contains nicotine, a proven strong physically dependent substance?

Pot is safer then cigarettes.

IBTL!!!

God dammit, don't say that word. You'll call the hippies and they'll start preaching propaganda.
