The state needs more smoking posts to dispose the buds…complete ban will not solve the issue…also smokers are addicted to nicotine some maybe offering free help will reduce the amount of smokers hence reduce the amount of buds scattered on the streets.

The state regularly offers free nicotine replacement stuff. Its all OTC and pretty cheap compared to a pack of smokes or vape anyway.

I think we kind of hit critical mass on smokers where no matter what happens won't change their mind. I always knew it was bad, price and social stigma is what got me to quit, but some folks are more stubborn.

As much as i don't think its a good thing to promote or normalize vaping, and still think there are unanswered questions and other risks with that, i'd like to think we can find a quiet way to get these folks to switch just from a trash and second hand perspective.
