cigarettes

What is it about cigarettes that makes people think they aren't litter? Have you noticed this? Ever seen someone walking or driving throw their cigarette butt anywhere they please? This bothers the hell out of me. Most people won't just throw garbage out into the streets, but for some strange reason cigarettes have been placed into a category of their own in which they are considered non-litter. Do smokers really think throwing their used cancer sticks all over god's creation is any less offensive than any other type of littering? I can't tell you how many arrogant smokers I see on a daily basis flick their trash onto the streets. It's sad that we've taught them that this is ok. Next time you see someone do this, I hope you'll do what I do - slap them on the back of the head and tell the moron to pick up their trash.
