Livingston County Daily Press & Argus, 11 Apr 2012 - If a 21-year-old is caught by police smoking marijuana, he could face a 90-day jail term. The sentence will be longer if that person is selling marijuana. But if the same person is smoking a tobacco cigarette, he soon will face only disturbing pictures, such as a cadaver on a slab or an image of smoke coming from a tracheotomy hole. Barring a courtroom challenge, the federal government will this year require such photos to be prominently displayed on all cigarette packs sold in America.
