wonder what cartridges they were putting in them….
It’s not “very serious incidents……”
this is typical hype by these people that should never hold these positions they have!
a school shooting or stabbing would qualify as very serious,but selling e type cigarettes is not.
tobacco and cigarettes were at schools in my day and always will be,it’s part of school life amongst students.
my first cigarette was at school.
my first joint was at school.
my first beer was at school.
my first fumble was at school.
jeezus h! wake up and smell de coffee and gimme a light.
