The Ethical Rebounds of Cigars born of Dubious Origins

[Dave]

I'm the Caveat Emptor kind of guy. I would most likely have problems paying for products attached to certain sordid histories. Hmm, a Hussein cigar... since it's a Cohiba, I would most likely not go for it were it available to me. If it was Partagas... then I would put more consideration and hesitation before I finally say no.

If I had one of Hussein's Cohibas I would have smoked it when they stretched his neck. Unless these smokes were rolled by some terrorist group, or the profit from the sales were going to them, I'd be hard pressed to find any moral issue that would keep me from lighting up. Why is this "mystery cigar" such a big secret anyways? If "Dave" got ripped off by a cigar company, he needs to be talking to his lawyer.

Politics, this is what it's all about!

For example...The US is the only country in the world that does no import Cuban cigars. Do you agree with the US stance on Cuba, then don't smoke ANY of their cigars. (some on CP will not smoke ISOM) For that matter, start going through your possessions like, clothing, electronics, food etc...if you base your consumption on moral issues, you may end up running around naked, starving, listening to your neibors car radio when he is not looking and so on. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
