ECA - On Good Morning America

[halfevildruid]

What about a chocotini? It's a chocolate martini. Kids like chocolate. Why aren't these banned! Any child could easily get a hold of these. Hey, you can do a Google search and find recipes online! They could be making them in their treehouse! And Target even sells plastic chocotini delivery devices. And, here's the catch, they will sell them to minors!

Oh, wait, I like Target. And I don't drink. And maybe it's just aimed at people who like chocolate. <WARNING: SEXIST REMARK> Okay, it's marketed at women. They have this relationship with chocolate.

As a person who loves vaping, I really can not see any appeal to an e-cig that any child or teen would find desirable. THEY HAVE CELL PHONES NOW! If that's not corrupting the youths of the world, I have no idea what is.

--Prof Daffy
P.S. Kudos to me! I just learned how to lock the keyboard on my cell phone. No more butt-dialing the person at the top of my phonebook! I couldn't be prouder!
P.P.S. DO NOT PROMOTE E-CIGS TO MINORS! If my supplier runs out of licorice e-juice there will be hell to pay! I also call dibs on cherry! No take backs.

thanx. my first laugh today...

I love the flavors argument..... it reinforces the distorted perception of the anti e-cig people.

As I stroll down the liquor store aisle I see cherry flavored vodka and chocolate Godiva liquers. Then I stopped at the pharmacy to check out the fruit flavored Cinnamon and Fruitty flavored NRT gums. FDA approved fruity flavors I might add.....

FDA Cracks Down on E-Cigarettes - ABC News

I love the guy at the end of that who says "A lot of people are going to continue to smoke their regular cigarettes as well as this one."

So the F what? Like there's nobody out there that smokes cigarettes and cigars, or cigarettes and a pipe, or all three, or all three plus dip and snuff....

I know people that will smoke ANYTHING.

Even if people use both, that probably means they're still going to be cutting down on the real thing. And that's good.

These "anti" people are brain dead.

[MrKai]

The taste of smoking is something that is aquired where it's obvious that a kid would like chocolate or cola or something.

...mint flavor?

Oh, sorry, i mean *menthol*. My bad.

Great find - and it shows that our ECA IS doing all it can - I, for one, appreciate the work....keep it up, guys.


The reporting did get a few things wrong - again, though...

These HAVE been tested..... the tests simply weren't "good" enough (the NZ study for Ruyan - the liquid testing by TW, etc). What they should be saying is that there haven't been any long range tests done....and never will be because of impossible standards.
And anytime the bring up the fruity flavors attracting children....grrrrrr!

/endrant

its probally better that they didn't say the FDAs bs test results
