For fuck's sake. Homeless and poor people have it rough and this is what passes the time. Let's ban smokeless tobacco, but by all means continue with the ubiquitous crotch grabbing and spitting in general. I find it ironic that they claim concern about what children may learn from ball players, but have no problem teaching them to be busy body idiots hell bent on depriving someone a basic pleasure for the sake of some unfounded influence by using political power which is ultimately enforced with the muzzle of a gun.

I'm not a doctor but pretty sure grabbing your crotch and spitting in general doesn't give you crotch or mouth cancer. Might be wrong, but pretty sure... So role models should be allowed to unintentionally advocate health harming habits... cause freedom?
Not sure but I think they are paid like, I dunno employees? I also think that the MLB is like a big deal when it comes to role modeling and image and general cultural influence?
Probably wrong about all this but maybe not having the role models of young people in a big cultural sport endorse indirectly (but pretty clearly) use of tobacco might be a good thing?
Probably just typing out my ass cause you know... freedom!
