Confusion or confrontation that is 100% the fault of the confused or confrontational moron. Sure why not punish the victim. /s

If that's not a good reason to ban something, what would be?

Say what you will about Puritans, you've got to admit they're persistent vermin.

...designed to look like (insert liberal cause de jour here) and be used just like them, they can lead to confusion or confrontation

cigarettes
guns
a Christian icon
an American flag

See how this works? Once you let liberals gain a foothold, they build on their control by introducing this ridiculous similarity game.

We really do need to place a ban on New York City. For The Children, of course.

In a related story, E-sodas, E-transfats, E-MSG, E-guns, and E-conservatives have also been banned.

Sarcasm, but just barely.

Living in Maryland as a Conservative Republican is rough, but thank God I don’t live in New York.

Funny, I thought this was about second hand smoke and its potential harm to others.

Looks like it was really just about control after all, I'm shocked.

Wait until they ban all political speech and make all of you drones dress in grey uniforms.

Not worried. If anyone gets confused and confronts me about my e-cigarette, I’ll just point my thumb and forefinger at them and scare them off.

They have some e-cigs that look more like pens than cigarettes. I wonder if they’ll have to ban pens now, since they look like e-cigs and might cause confusion (in the libs’ tiny minds).

Real cigarettes may (or may not) be one thing....but if all these things emit is water vapor (which is what I've read) then this is silly.Except for a month or two when I was 15 during which I smoked (hated it!) I'm a lifelong non-smoker who is turned off no end by the smell of others' smoke.Also,my cardiologist says that *my* cardiorespiratory ailment makes me genuinely susceptible to real harm by being exposed to "second hand smoke".However,I seriously doubt that *anyone*,including me,would ever be harmed by water vapor.

If I was a bit younger I'd be tempted to challenge this law in the courts.I'd intentionally get arrested and then duke it out in the state courts...and the Federal ones if necessary.

Didn't Pelozi say to "embrace the suck"? So why are they banning e-cigs?

Will it be OK still to vap e-cigars?

When will they ban pens with white barrels and white drinking straws? and then there's candy canes....
