Now New Jersey is considering raising the minimum cigarette purchasing age to 21 following New York's lead. And I'm surprised that the age isn't 21 already, but do they think the kids aren't going to be able to get cigarettes some other way? Because kids already get alcohol when they're not supposed to. Laws like these are mostly for show, but there's no reason to allow kids to smoke, even if it the age rules are mostly symbolic. And it does raise the question of whether we're moving closer to just banning cigarettes altogether. (AP via Courier Post, Camden/Cherry Hill)
