No. I am pointing out that you are making two conflicting statements.

You are doing mental gymnastics.

Back to the point "Noone goes to prison for underage smoking". Yes they do. When you make prohibition laws creating the concept of "underage smoking" you ARE sending SOMEONE to prison.

If you genuinely couldn't piece together that he meant "smoking while underage" when he said "underage smoking" then I'm seriously concerned for you.

If you genuinely don't understand how the English language works and you want to create your own form of doublespeak where you say "Noone goes to prison" but you really mean "let's imprison poor people and still not solve the issue" them I'm seriously concerned for you.

No one goes to prison for smoking while underage. That's a fact.

[-] null@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 year ago

Wtf, why do you want to imprison poor people?

What's wrong with you, dude?

So the magnanimous mr "null" has now gone full "I'm rubber you're glue".

Which about describes a prohibitionist.

Nice doublespeak.

You literally said "let's imprison poor people". You understand how the English language works, don't you?
