i know if u smoke cigarettes they take time off of your life. Changing the paper now to burn slower, doesnt that make you suck on the cigarette harder when taking a drag? they need to notify smokers when they do this stuff. it sucks. i want my old cigarette back

Can anyone tell me when the FSC cigarettes started being sold in Ohio? I have been severely ill since end of October with sinus infection (that wont go away with antibiotics), constant headaches, tingling scalp, blurred vision, nausea, etc. After hearing about these "new" cigarettes I started researching on the web, and lo and behold, could this be what is making me sick? I smoke Marlboro light 100's. If anyone knows when the first Marlboros (FSC) were distributed/sold in Ohio please let me know. thanks so much.

I have always wondered how the USA will end... This FSC cigarette standard will surely divide the USA as its never been divided before. Just imagine upsetting and poisoning millions of addicted smokers and their potential feelings and unknown reactions. Instead of educating the public of ALL the dangers of smoking they have chosen to NOT TRUST the smoking American public and force Ethyl Vinyl Acetate laden FSC cigarettes upon them. Well I have been thinking about this whole FIRE SAFETY thing and how smokers have been singled out by Government and NFPA National Fire Protection Association. This is most unfortunate as I see many other dangerous activities and situations that are just as dangerous as smoking cigarettes. Should Government and NFPA act upon other sources of fire ignition? Such as burning candles, space heaters, fireplaces, outdated home appliances and electrical wiring, natural gas lines and BBQ propane tanks. Or how about stop making flammable cars or truck or issuing drivers licenses to younger inexperienced and older brain dead drivers to reduce car accidents resulting in explosive fireballs. Hydrogen powered engines is out of the question. Lawn mowers and other small engines that tend to spark should be illegal and banned. I am sure camping and having camp fires should be illegal to prevent forest fires. Boy Scouting could become a thing of the past. All the restaurants that use ovens, burners, butter and cooking grease should be made to close and ONLY sandwich shops serving cold cuts and bags of chips should remain open. And on and on... The only good thing is these FSC cigarettes might save 700 to 1000 lives a year but the unknowns from this action and what this action will lead too remains to be seen and surly will be a divisive force to ultimately destroy the USA - UNITED STATES of AMERICA. This country is in danger and not united and is more divided than ever before. Democrats rise and Republicans sit and independents cant even get a chair or even a word in edgewise. Don't get me wrong I love my country and really don't care what someone does as long as it does not effect me. I am a long time American smoker that does not like or appreciate others telling me what to do and tricking me (not notifying) by placing EVA Carpet Glue chemicals into my cigarettes and making me sick. Some say there is one thing worse than a Heroin addict and thats a person addicted to cigarettes. Soon there will be millions of trembling, pissed off, creative, free thinking smokers to contend with. Way to go NFPA and the US Government I sense you just drove the last nail into your very own coffins and destroyed individual rights that took many years and lives to create. Only time will tell the consequences of the forced introduction of the FSC cigarette and its Patented "Speed Bump" paper. Philip Morris has exclusive rights to use, sell and distribute this paper to all cigarette manufacturers which will make them tons of money in exchange for destroying the rights of individuals in the USA. Every time you drive or smoke over a "Speed Bump" remember its because someone or something out there does NOT TRUST YOU and wants to take your money for NOTHING ! GET IT !

I work at a local convenience store, the complaints on the FSC is UNREAL. Customers are threatening to quit smoking solely because of the FSC additive. I too am a smoker, I realize the reason why the additive is in there, but I still do not like it. The ash problem is going to cause a fire before a whole lit cigarette will ever. I was sitting here watching TV after work, relaxing and smoking, an ash fell and burnt a hole in my new work jacket. Now how am I going to explain that? This is something I have to pay for because of this new "safer" cigarette. This was a really bad idea, and all complaints should be taken into consideration by the tobacco industry. It is costing everyone more money because of having to puff more so the cigarettes won't go out, and causing way too many complications. I have not had any of the headaches or nose bleed or migrianes that I have read about, but I cannot quit coughing. This is not a smokers cough, I was in the hospital 6 months ago, I was told by a nurse that I had the clearest lungs she had ever heard in a smoker. I bet she wouldn' t say that now.

I have been a hard core Marlboro smoker for 20 +years. After smoking these new FSC smokes, all I can say is "I AM DONE". The constant coughing that I have aquired now is just getting out of control. The chemicals that have been added to our smokes is making us sick. Lets show em whos BOSS.. Stop buying or at least buy LESS... Lets tell the government where they can put these chemicals at... RIGHT UP THEIR ###"...

Marlboros have completely lost the taste that I craved. Smoking one now is like smoking an imposter. I really miss the pleasure that I used to get from a Marlboro. Now they are dull and lifeless. They have taken something out of Marlboro Red Box that made them great. Now they are bland and lifeless. I'm switching to American Spirit. No more Marlboro loyalty.

In 2008, I became very ill. I was coughing, choking in my sleep, vomiting, major headaches, and extremely severe pain in my legs, muscles and joints. It was so bad, i had to be assisted in walking and had to buy a 4 wheeler to get around my farm.Doctors could not find out what was wrong with me. I thought I was going to die. after 20k in medical tests a friend asked me if i was smoking FSC cigs, i said i dont know, what is that. I was told it was a poison chemical being put in cigs now and i was not aware this was going on. I had wondered why they kept going out when i set them down and why i had to drag more often to keep it lit. Once i learned of this BS, i stopped smoking my brand and switched to a non FSC brand. In one week, the symptoms started going away and after one month, i could walk again. almost 4 monthes now and nearly all the pain is gone and i can fuction again with out being assisted. Doctors were amazed that this had happened and that the FSC WAS the cause of my near death. What the hell is this country coming to? It is time we take back our rights! Any attorneys out there have the balls to go after these jack ###?

Here are the lunatics behind the FSC cigarettes http://firesafecigarettes.org/categoryList.asp?categoryID=9&URL=Home%20-%20The%20Coalition%20for%20Fire%20Safe%20Cigarettes
Get your hacker friends to bomb their site
And also, they would be the defendants in the inevitable law-suit
This is a product safety issue, since these cigarettes produce falling-off embers and sparks. THAT would be the best attack point. Nobody gives a crap about the health of us smokers. Though it DOES seem like some sort of eugenics attack on us. Remember - Nazis hated cigarettes
If anyone finds a lawyer who would be willing to take this garbage on email me please wertyq69@yahoo.com

Almost all USA made Marlboros are FSC. They changed the paper to burn slower but it kills smokers faster. Marlboros taste really harsh now. I am sure it is because fire-safe paper is constructed by gluing two or three thin bands of less-porous paper together with an ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer emulsion based adhesive (carpet glue). FSC cigarettes can be identified the FSC above the barcode on the pack. I am not going to smoke carper glue, I switched to overseas cigarettes from http://www.azcigs.com/ they still safe normal cigarettes.
