I sure don't think ill mannered people are, single-handedly, responsible for the bans of either smoking nor vaping. I get the corruption and greed behind bans. I do, however, think they lend ammunition to the ANTZ who must first turn vaping into a moral issue rather than a health one. Looking at the history of smoking, people who were never ANTZ were needed by them to support legisltation with their votes. They know most will vote one way or another based on their personal experiences... like choking on smoke while they're trying to eat. Same will happen to vaping. I'm certainly no vape cop but the subject should be discussed rationally without accusations like that... name-calling is rude and inflammatory and tends to put the brakes on any rational discourse. The bottom line is that people will vape, with or without simple manners, the same way they smoked. I saw a T-shirt saying "I'm not RUDE, you're just insignificant." Someone buys them. Yes, people will judge whole groups based on the behavior of a minority within it... that's with pretty much everything including vaping. Eventually that minority becomes the majority as those not wishing to be associated disappear. Its happened with many things... history usually repeats because people don't change and that includes those who know how to manipulate the thinking of others turning "whatever" into a moral issue. Some of the worst crimes against humanity have been committed just that way with the blessings of onlookers.
Carry on... and happy vaping.

oh the decisions!
