Hell, you can buy bongs in half a dozen head shops in town. They KNOW they are using those for illegal drugs. Tell me big tobacco isn't subsidizing this action.

Not saying they SHOULD ban analogs (unless they want half the country rioting), just wondering how can they allow analogs but not allow what *SEEMS* to be a much safer and healthier alternative?!

The tobacco lobby has better lawyers.

Oh well. Ladies and gentlemen, prepare to HOARD!!!!!!!!!!!!

//Johnson Creek Kona Coffee for the win! It is NOT TUNA!!!!!!!

Daaaaamn. How can argue with logic like that?!?!

You know what pisses them off... is the fact that they are not getting their cut in massive taxation.

Amazing to think that anyone with a modicum of intelligence would consider something which stops people or certainly helps people to stop ingesting 4000 deadly chemicals.

Reaffirms my point that the will to be a politician or anything close too should BAN you for life for being one...stupid idiots!

THIS THING IS WHY I HAVENT STARTED AGAIN>>>SO BACK THE F OFF CHEN YOU MONGO

Serial killer... rubber knife...

We can't esmoke because cigarettes kill people and as ex/current smokers/people "emulating smoking" we are killing people? So therefore we.... are serial killers....

I'm sure to someone somewhere that makes sense.

Calaban · 03-10-2009, 04:29 AM

Grrrr.......

I hate this crap.

Just leave us alone for cryin out loud!

Boils my blood that a FEW people in positions of power can make these kinds of decisions.

None of their business imo.

Hey - it's either that or they turn you into a pedophile, right?

Lol this has more to do with some idiots in the FDA trying to spare their jobs I think. There is no logical reason to ban these things. Not everyone uses nicotine in them. Big Pharma, Big tobacco don't like people edging in on their turf I guess? Well, we still should be able to get our nic liquid in a plain brown wrapper discretely labeled as something other than e juice?

AMEN!

We need to get our suppliers to drop any mention of these things as being healthy. They need to be listed as what they are, alternatives to tobacco smoking, and that's it.
