The original back comedian who started the you ever notice how white people routine. All others were followers. Like this one comedian said if there was a Mount Rushmore of comedians, Richard Pryor would have to be included. Nuff said. Added 4 years ago by guest, 1 point
Nearly a dozen communities across the state within the past year have raised the age for tobacco sales higher than 18 years old, evidence of a slow-spreading movement that activists say will reduce cigarette use among teens. Most states, including Massachusetts, allow 18-year-olds to buy tobacco products. Alaska, Alabama, Utah and New Jersey are the exceptions, all of which have pushed the legal age to 19.
New York City raised the minimum age for tobacco purchases to 21 in 2013. In June, Hawaii became the first state to do so, effective Jan. 1. The Boston suburb of Needham in 2005 became the first U.S. town to impose a local ordinance setting the minimum age at 21.
