Uh-oh. A commenter at the Richmond Times-Dispatch is guilty of stereotyping. His crime is in a story about the brave heroes of law enforcement and the judiciary smashing a cigarette smuggling ring that ran coffin nails from Virginia to New York. (The local residents include Mickel Marzouk, Moeen Khan, and Rabih Saba.)

The reason the New York authorities take the street sale of illegal cigarettes seriously is not only because of New York’s awful taxes, but because legal sellers can be kept from selling to 15-year olds by threats of fines or shuttered stores. Guys like the late Eric Garner have no such restrictions.
