Guess who is front and center in this picture?!?!?

In the first block of pictures below I’m commenting on the enforcement of tobacco control ordinances and how we must ensure that accountability is included in the ordinance when it is passed. I also mentioned that we should not send police officers into tobacco retail establishments “guns-a-blazing” whenever we have options, as we do, to use code enforcement resources that municipalities and counties have, or even civilian volunteers/non-profits that are willing to protect our youth from the poison that is sold legally and without regularly to addict our populations and manifesting the most preventable cause of death.

You can see me in a bunch of these pictures fully engaged and in some cases almost on the verge of tears.
