Real cops have ID cards and badges and in a bar, if they have the balls to do it, would do it discreetly unless they are just plain STUPID. I would've smacked him around a little bit and taught him a lesson!! Anyone flashes you a PBA card next time, laugh at him. ![]() Shoot, If I had one, I would send you one just to flash yours back in his face!!

Hey guys! Spike here... as eplanet said.. we started the Long Island Vapers Club. We have a forum on here... here is a link.. feel free to send a PM if you want an invite! http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/for...pers-club.html We meet once or twice a month (once there are more than 10 of us it will be twice a month... but we need to have enough people to make it worthwhile to meet). We are growing fast. We get together to talk vaping and vapers rights and vape in public and recruit smokers to the club and trade juice and try each others devices so we can "try before we buy" and talk about funny vaping incidents. It is a lot of fun.. hope to see some of you there! Next meeting is May 8th at 7pm in Hicksville Long Island and I will be picking city people up at the LIRR at 6pm if you need a ride. More info can also be found at Long Island, New York - Vapers Club. The website is not done yet.. but it has meeting info for right now. |

Thanks Blue Knight Max for the info. I haven't had much problems because i vape through the nose and its not very visible when the vapor is thrown downwards with lots of pressure. And laws are pretty strict this days on subways. I was going home once from work and it was 12 am the subway was empty. So i put my legs on top of another sit and when the doors open to a station an undercover cop summon me a ticket for taking a sit for others. And in there was only 2 people ^^. I reasoned with him and he lower it to $25 ^^. So if you just explain to the cop they would probably yet you go with a warning. p.s. I use the penstyle RN 4072 |

Blue Knight - thanks for the info. I'm generally in "stealth mode" when I vape on the subway but I'll take a good look around first after reading your description of the "subway law". The description does seem to proscribe vaping.

I live on Long Island but I work in Manhattan. I vape everywhere including the subway and Penn Station. I have not had any problems in the subway so far. In penn station I have explained what it is to MANY police officers and to date every single one of them has been satisfied with my ansers and the most any of them have done is asked me to please not do it in the main concourse area where large amounts of people will see. They were more concerned that my 'smoking' would make analog smokers think it was OK. I have had several 'confrontations' and so far not one single one has ended in me being told I can not do it. The two keys are simply, offer a polite explination and also say you recently quit smoking and this is what is keeping you from going back. When they ask how long it has been I find it is better to lie and say a week or two rather than tell people I have been without analogs since jan 1. ![]() If you are the type to get hot tempered quickly I do not suggest openly vaping in non-smoking places. If you are the type that can stay calm and polite with a stranger yelling so hard that spit flies out their mouth then whip it out and vape anywhere. And lastly, if you think the looks get harsh smoking an e-cig in public, you should see the looks when I pull out a Ruyan Vegas and start puffing that enormous bad boy. ![]() DW |

You got had because officers do not have the authority to "lower" the fines. It was either $25.00 bucks to start with or he gave you a summons for some other BS offense. Man, When I worked in transit, I hated it!! I was never an ice picker and that caused me nothing but problems with my supervisors.
