> What's more American than tobacco, alcohol and firearms?

BATF, sure. An arm of the American govt.

But...alcohol: Invented 12 hours after someone added water
to honey (**** the "who's first?" wine/beer debate). You've
never had breakfast in Bavaria, have you? Firearms? Not
invented in the US, but certainly embraced (I personally own
five - two handguns and three rifles). Tobacco - My
understanding is that the tobacco plant is indigenous to
north America, but I'm willing to be wrong.
Smoking?...Europe has taken the concept and run with it.

American? C'mon. I'll give you #2 (firearms). The other
two...what are you on about?
