Youths fume over cigar ban

[Magnum PI]

I know Baltimore has its problems but this seems to be a silly and thinly veiled way to fight 'the war on drugs.'  Thats all this is.  I doubt highly anyone that this intends to protect actually smokes the cigars without cutting them open and dumping out the tobacco first and re-rolling them with marijuana.  I would think that the drug dealers themselves will end up providing the cigars, along with their weed, to keep their customers happy.

Why do lawmakers have such a difficult time getting their priorities straight?

Williams, wearing baggy jeans, a long T-shirt and elaborate gold fronts on his teeth, said it is common for high school students to smoke the cigars, which he said are a status symbol and stress-reliever.

Was that description really relevant to the article? The slant on this article is hopelessly one-sided. The reporter only gives us the point of view from teen smokers, and on top of that tries so hard to portray them in negative light.

Is there a positive light?
