Dear RM Agents and Readers,
So yesterday I went to 3 different places to find one that I didn't have to show my ID to buy my fathers cigarettes. I was tired and not wanting to be down town; but he is my dad.
When I got home I asked myself the question what are the legal laws in Utah that these shop owners have to abide by.
Federal and State law and Cigerettes:
In December 2019, Congress passed a $1.37 trillion spending bill that included a provision to raise the minimum legal sales age for all tobacco products from 18 to 21 nationwide. Upon the President's signature on December 20, 2019, the age change became effective immediately.Jan 2, 2020

My Comment (CR): But you can put your life on the line for us at 18 in war, now that makes sense?
Do I like cigarettes, no, I used to smoke between 18 21, on and off after always doing my best to quit. It is a tough one. However, I don't want the government infringing upon my rights as an adult. I find the habit quite offensive and can't stand the smell, never did like the smell. Yet, if you are an adult and as the law of the land states that you can smoke legally after the age of 21.
OK, whatever.

Dear RM Agents and Readers,
The reason for my anger is because the (clerks) are being told they have to ID everyone no matter what their age is. That goes way beyond what the law states and they are pushing the limit! Ultimate agenda, social credit score, getting you to bow down to their created bs, is what it is mainly about. Stand up now and if you don't; you now have a small idea of what will follow.
They slowly took away the fight of the folks in China, it was incremental and if you don't call them on it, it will get much worse.
At one point they told the people there was a disease and the animals were the problem. They would be going from home to home to take their animals and kill them. Many hid their animals.
Haven't found the story but this took place before the pandemic.
This one after:

They are out to break the spirit of the American people and so you stop them before they get started. You stop them before it gets bad!!!
Will I be voting for President Trump, yes I will, do I agree with him on everything? No I don't. Am I upset about the vaccine, damn right. Nontheless, Trump and DeSantis have my vote!
Many Blessings,
