Butt Out

Wow Lesa, thank you for protecting us against ourselves. And if you could please stop driving your car in Solana Beach, that would improve my health, the greenhouse gases it releases are truly damaging our health and air quality. In fact, could you ban cars completely in Solana Beach, we'd be so much healthier? Oh! And how about corporate/industrial pollution, are there any businesses that use chemicals that are harmful to our health? Would you please shut them down? I know cigarette smoke must be playing a part in our poor air quality and global warming, thus hurting our health, but surely all these toxic chemicals and fossil fuels used in large scale might be adding to it. It is way more fun to pick on the 'scapegoat of the hour,' though, the big bad wolf, smoker guy.... and far more difficult to address the bigger, more impactful issues. While your protecting us by monitoring our personal habits yet ignoring the larger picture of what's really destroying our health and environment, I think you should ban alcohol for it's insidious effects on families and children. And corn syrup, junk food, and overeating, we all know how obesity is wreaking havoc on our kids - could you ban ....ummm... food... wait, that might be a little tricky. Thanks!
