Lockage of the thread?

What gives Mods?

Are you guys going to start locking threads about movies that have an R rating also? I mean, since theres really only a year difference between R movies and using tobacco products legally.

I completely agree with you.

I guess we have to lock all threads on driving now too because many people here do not have a license yet. We also should take away the :beer: emoticon because many people here can't consume it.

Hmmm...and no posts about "Mature" games in the software forums because people under 17 shouldn't be playing them!

 
Personally, I think the person who locked the thread may have some personal vendetta against the use of tobacco products, and is using the "illegal" excuse as a way of shutting down the thread.
