Wonder where to $200billion dollars big tobacco paid to state governments went ?
Plus paying millions per year every year since the 1998 settlement ?

Oh this is about dove fields - they look good I rekon

They subsidize the cockroaches(Tobacco Farmers) here

Disgusting crop grown by azzholes

Looks kinda green to be housed in barns on tier poles? Or flue cured? Lotso leaf going up and down the roads around here right now. But much more "ripe" yellowish leaves.

Go back to bed and get up on the other side if it.

Maybe your friends were stupid azzholes for using it. I would bet that most of us have lost someone to it. Pick your poison because nobody gets out alive

Well anyways we seen about 150 -175 birds in and around the actual dove feild adjacent to the tobacco feilds.
40 acres sown wheat.

Open tommorow and monday at noon then saturday the 7th

Gonna hit it on the 7th also.

Tobacco already comes with nicotine. God put it in the DNA of that plant.

Can tell you have never been anywhere near a tobacco crop. Workers can get nicotine poisoning from wearing short sleeve shirts in the field.

All I know is tommorow is gonna be a excellent dove hunt.
And I will have 2 packs of pall mall lights king size with me.
Some cheese crackers
2 cans of beefaroni
Plastic spoon
1 gallon of water
Some paper towels
200 12 ga rounds.
Shotgun
My gerber tool
2 cans of bug dope
And my nice fold up hunting chair.
And the smart phone

And a 70+ yr old tree already scouted out for premium shade.

They add nicotine to it and I am not going to google it for you. I have tobacco growing 200 yards from my house, I work 200 yards from RJR reynolds. That and soybeans is all they apparently know how to grow around here.

Don’t ferget the TP.

Go [bleep] yourself Azzhole. You have not lost friends to it like i have.

Heres a piece of advice,Phuggtard. . G F Y with Paddler watching .

Don’t ferget the TP.

It’s currently 74 here with more of the same tomorrow. Not good as it’ll have the doves heading out soon but I’m liking it after a month of triple digits. I love to shoot doves though so I go whether it’s 100 degrees or not.

Another internet clown that just stirs stuff up and has nothing to contribute . Hint : you would not say that to my face.

What’s the limit on doves in your neck of the woods Slumlord?

Yep. Any time the plant is wet while topping, cutting, hoousing. Heavy dew, foggy, after a rain. Have friends who work tobacco from March to November/December every year. Always take a second change of clothes with them when the tobacco is wet. Change into dry clothes at lunch time to reduce the exposure. If it is bad, they will hop in the river or a pond with a bar of soap. Hauled a couple guys with "green tobacco poisoning" when I ran EMS. First they were afraid they were going to die... Then they were afraid they wouldn't...

Not talking about raw tobacco which is bad enough. The cigarette companies added nicotine and a whole lot of other things to tobacco and have been called on it. There is plenty more to google on this if you are so inclined.

1200 people per day die and yet we have to pay tobacco farmers not to grow this product. The Money that came out of those big lawsuits sure enriched some phugging lawyers . How much money does it cost to treat lung cancer or any cancer caused by this ? We then wonder why our premiums and medical costs are out of control.

Go [bleep] yourself Azzhole. You have not lost friends to it like i have.

Going to blame the gun if one is used in a mass shooting?
NO ONE tied your friends up and forced them to use it. And once they discovered the dangers they could of stopped like most intelligent people do.

I've always found myself agreeing with most everything you have posted, and have no desire to start an argument with anyone here, but you just may have posted the dumbest thing I've seen on here.

Read my lips................THEY DO NOT ADD NICOTINE TO TOBACCO

Cigarette companies not farmers added nicotine

My in-laws grow about a 100 acres of tobacco, a lot of that on contract to US Tobacco company. They have to follow certain rules and guidelines which REDUCE the amount of carcinogens and nicotine in the tobacco. Again, the companies do not add nicotine. Bullchitt they did

I grew tobacco for almost 30 years. Don't remember anybody giving me anything, other than what I got for my hard work.

I smoked myself......and it was MY choice.....no one forced me to. If someone gets cancer because they used tobacco, it's their fault. Sad, and I feel for anyone that's has it, or lost loved ones to it, but it was a choice they made......period.

Major US tobacco companies will publish and broadcast messages beginning November 24 that clearly state they designed their products to be more addictive, even while knowing their health effects were deadly. The court-ordered messages will appear in big city newspapers, on national network television stations, websites, cigarette package inserts, and places where cigarettes are sold. These “corrective statement” advertisements are a result from a federal case that found cigarette makers guilty in 2006 of violating racketeering laws.

Full-page newspaper ads will appear in papers in more than 50 major cities through April 2018. The television ads will begin on November 27 and run on major network or cable stations during primetime for 52 weeks.

The decision holding the tobacco defendants liable was based on evidence that the tobacco industry knew smoking and nicotine were addictive, manipulated tobacco products to make them more addictive, and claimed “light” and “low” tar products were healthier than regular products even though they knew that was false. Judge Gladys Kessler, who presided over United States v. Philip Morris USA, Inc. et al., found that, “…over the course of more than 50 years, defendants lied, misrepresented, and deceived the American public, including smokers and the young people they avidly sought as ‘replacement smokers,’ about the devastating health effects of smoking and environmental tobacco smoke.”...

Your belief ranks right up there with that of those people who think that the reason there are no Bobwhite quail anymore, is because the turkeys are eating the quail eggs.

No tobacco is grown here, so I have zero experience hunting over it.

Looks like it'd be hard to find downed birds.

I'll be hunting over a safflower field as they come in to roost in an almond orchard tomorrow afternoon. Got my swivel seat 5 gallon bucket, a couple boxes of shells, a six pack, and a couple hand rolled cigarettes.

Good luck!

Haha

Not hunting a tobacco field for doves.

There is a top sown with wheat, cover crop on the adjoining field to the right. Already cut tobacco field, Burely field from last month. (There is a burley barn way off in the back of one of the pics.

This btw is Dark Fired, the barns are already smoking. This will join them.

Make sure you debaters go take a GIANT SHÎT on the next wabifool thread about bugs bunny and hummingbirds.

I might go dove hunting tomorrow....drive there in my new Ford pickup, paid for by the money I'm still getting from all those years I grew tobacco.

I'll use my $1500 Benelli shotgun, that I bought with the proceeds from my last tobacco crop.

And I'll shot ammo bought with the money I get from renting my neighbor some land where he can grow his tobacco on.

Damn, tobacco has sho nuff been good to me.

Deflave said you were given everything have from your dad. Just like Shrapnel.

Geez SlumLord, I broke into a sweat looking at the pictures. I grew up in North Robertson Co. TN. Every family had a patch. Good or bad, tobacco and cattle paid for the family farm and put me and my kid sister through school.

I hate the stuff now, but I reckon according to oldelkhunter's logic, all the beef and corn we raised contributed to multiple DUI fatalities and countless strokes and heart attacks.

Don't matter much, one thing I learned from my Dad was to not pay too much attention to folks from "town". They generally talk out of their ass.

Edited to add: Pard is working on us a silage field for this week. Hope it pans out!!! I'm a bit fired up for seedsucker season!!!

We are hunting a feild off mint springs road just off keysburg rd.

Riley brothers field.
They public lease to twra every year.
Big feild by the CO- OP they have given a rest past 2 years after it being hunted 3 yrs running.

It's never occurred to me to blame cigarette companies for what he did to himself.

That's dark fired tobacco, most likely, and it will be cured with smoke.
