Teenager wants to ban ecigs before they become a "trend"

[(So) Jersey Girl]

Kids who are tempted to smoke won't be attracted to e-cigs. Those who are tempted will just find a way to get their hands on the good ole fashioned tobacco ones. They're far more accessible. Teens will also find a way to sneak into R-rated movies, drink, do drugs, or engage in any other activities prohibited to them. That's what kids do. It's the parent's job to raise their kids, not the government's.

Looks like another case of teachers putting their beliefs in the minds of todays youth. It's an epidemic.

My guess is those kids are "volunteers" for Tobacco Free Kids. It is frightening to think how much control those groups have over the kids who work for them. I saw this video some time ago and found it chilling. Take a look at the almost religious zealotry at this meeting.

You are not kidding. That was like a religious indoctrination. Scary.
Replace the chanting and signage with 'Praise be to [insert preferred tin god here, followed by hate filled incitement of choice]' and it would look pretty much the same

Kids can be easily manipulated by fanatics. Give them a day out of school and a party atmosphere and they will follow you anywhere.

That's why Hitler replaced the Boy Scouts with the Hitler Youth in the 1930s.

Funny that you mentioned the Hitler youth. I was thinking about them as I watched those Wisc. Kids.

Even scarier when you read the sign she's wearing. "I put out, will you?"

If they want to ban teenage fads, they really should have targeted that "pants on the ground" fad ages ago!
