Kentucky is persuing legislation that would require tobacco producers to sell only fire safe cigarettes. The safer cigarettes are wrapped with thin bands of paper that slow down a burning cigarette. A cigarette left unattended will extinguish when the burning tobacco reaches one of the bands. Six other states have alread passed similar legislation. What are your thoughts?!

I think it might be a good idea. It could be be a life saver. Just think also just think of the peoperty losses also that it could keep from occuring.

Yes, especially when people fall asleep smoking and their home burns.

it sounds good but whenever i smoke i generally smoke the entire part of it... mean i don't waste it much... and if i do it sometimes then i always extinguish it after dropping it. but some people don't do that... for them it will be good...

they have already been using those here in Edmonton for a while now, it gets annoying cause when you get nto a conversation and dont have a drag for even a little while then your smoke goes out on you and you hvae to either relight it or throw it away or ya
