I just don't know what to say anymore about this crap.....

The article I read stated the ban is for cigars and cigarettes. Nothing was said about pipe tobacco, snuff or dip.

America is looking in the wrong directing for good health. We have to get the children outside moving about. Without all the processed junk food. They don't teach physical education anymore. I stood in line in Hollywood for 4 hours to get a swine flue shot. I could not believe how many of the young people who were obese.

j. "Tobacco product" means any substance which contains tobacco, including, but not limited to, cigars and chewing tobacco; provided, however, that such term shall not include cigarettes.
§[17-703] 17-715 Sale of flavored tobacco products prohibited. It shall be unlawful for any person to sell or offer for sale any flavored tobacco product except in a tobacco bar.

My God Man! Then parents would have to take direct responsibility for their kids!
You must banish this crazy logical thinking from your mind. We must continue to blame all others for our ills and misfortunes and have them pay for it too!
Being sarcastic, of course.
I couldn't agree with you more.

The article I read was in the NY Times. I'm not surprised they didn't get it right.
