WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

The worst crime in S.Africa: Smoking Cigarettes!!

[If they put as much effort into beefing up the laws on murder, armed robbery and rape, then we’d be a pretty peace-loving country. Imagine, being fined $3,000 as a first time offence for smoking in public. The ANC loves creating pointless laws against harmless activities… while ignoring the MASS MURDER… which goes on in this country. Jan] Cape Town – A total of 39% of smokers and non-smokers who took part in a poll initiated by the Tobacco Institute of South Africa (Tisa) are of the opinion that the current smoking laws are too strict. Another 48% believe it is sufficient. Planned amendments will probably make it even more prohibitive. Tisa found that an estimated one in four adults in South Africa smokes. The poll showed that 70% of the respondents were in favour of designated smoking areas at their place of work, while 68% were opposed to people smoking at the entrances to buildings. One fifth of participants indicated that they did not care whether people smoked in restaurants, 58% were satisfied with smoking and non-smoking areas and 19% preferred restaurants where no smoking was allowed. Tisa said sufficient provision must be made for smokers and non-smokers in public places. The tobacco industry does not advocate that people can smoke where they want to, but that the rights of the smoker should also be taken into account. Tisa CEO Francois van der Merwe said “the suggestions in the amended act go too far. The ridiculous fine of R20 000 for a first offender who smokes in a public place is extreme. “Smoking laws must be practical, possible to implement and fair towards smokers and non-smokers.” The tobacco industry directly employs 23 582 people, not including about 115 000 formal and informal traders. About 100 000 people are directly dependent on the tobacco industry for their livelihood, Tisa said. Source: News24.Com |
