ADDING E-CIGS TO SMOKING BANS

"Communities look to regulate e-cigarettes," July 22 news story.

"You can vaporize cocaine, you can vaporize marijuana, you can 
vaporize methamphetamine. You do not know what's in those vaporizers, 
" says Golden Police Chief Bill Kilpatrick. Let's explore the chief's logic:

1) Many gang members have tattoos, so let's jail all those with tattoos.

2) Prostitution is against the law and women have all the "equipment" 
to be a prostitute, so let's jail all women.

An alternative suggestion: When people vaporize cocaine, 
methamphetamine or other illegal drugs with e-cigs, by all means, jail them.
