Menthol Cigarette Exclusion Seen as Racist

Washington, DC - With recent tobacco legislation banning the sale of flavored cigarettes and labels advertising cigarettes as 'light,' many are asking why menthol cigarettes were excluded from these new restrictions. Leading a protest outside the Washington Memorial, Jesse Jackson had this to say:
"You know who smokes menthol cigarettes? Black people. You know who made these rules? White people. The message Congress, a bunch of old white guys, is sending loud and clear is that they don't care if black people get lung cancer and die. So we're out here protesting. And suing. Suing to get money for the people--black people."
Jackson coughed as he lit up a menthol cigarette, saying, "Damn, that's smooth."
The articles on this site are satire, they are NOT factual, and are not intended to be taken seriously. Any resemblance to any private individuals, living or dead, is entirely coincidental.
