I don't think the problem is with quantity so much as quality.

It's sort of funny that the cops they hire can't distinguish an e-cig from a real one; but that becomes a lot less funny when it is then evident that cops that unobservant -- armed and armored persons -- also might not be able to distinguish between a road flare and a stick of dynamite or a person reaching for a wallet as opposed to a gun.

I suggest they hire smarter public servants instead of restricting freedom to compensate for stupidity.

The problem isn't too many people, it is too many STUPID people; and it is high time we stopped them from running the show just because by definition half of all people are below median.

Problem: can't tell an ecig from a traditional on fire cigarette.
Solution: Universal public ecig that shouts to all "I AM AN ECIG YOU DUMMIE!" I vote for the Reo Grand. :)

I agree, smoking shouldn't be allowed in all places. Restaurants are an example; because I know that there are families that eat at those restaurants that might not want smoke blowing in their faces while they are eating. Not being able to smoke outside on the street however is just rediculous.

I disagree. Smoking should be allowed in any privately-owned establishment if the owner of said establishment wishes to allow it. No one is forcing anyone to enter into a restaurant, and smoking is a legal act. Smoking bans are property rights issues, plain and simple. I don't like dealing with second hand smoke, either, but if the person who put their entire life's fortune on the line to own their business wants to allow a LEGAL act on their property, they should be able to do so.

If they were being honest about it, they would just outlaw smoking altogether. But that will never happen because of the tax revenue generated from it.

I still think that Obama would be open to the idea of a safer alternative to tobacco.
It could be good for the cause. SIGN UP, FOLKS!!!

This has nothing to do with safety. This has to do with governmental control, non-profit power (ALA), and Big Tobacco's role in getting politicians elected (putting money in their coffers)--all under the guise of safety. In other words, you're dealing with pure evil.
