But smoking pot should be legal. Hmph.
Notice how the doctor's own personal opinion came into the equation.
$1:
E-cigarettes and cigars are left out of the bill because Dr Creagan believes they are significantly safer for smokers than regular cigarettes - although the National Cancer Institute warns that "all tobacco products are harmful and cause cancer".
Given that idiotic stance this sounds more like a personal vendetta against big tobacco than him having any concern about the health of his constituents or, maybe it's because he owns shares in a vape company.

That's my guess. Here's how a doctor explained the difference between vaping and smoking to me. "Smoking is really, really bad for you. Vaping is just really bad for you."
