16 Dec 13: Handelsblatt: EU makes smokers angry - EU wants to regulate the e-cig as medicines

[Anjaffm]

Darlings, one of the most reputable German newspapers picked up on our Twitterbombs and our opinions voiced with the hashtag #EUecigBAN

16 Dec 13: Handelsblatt
EU makes smokers angry - EU wants to regulate the e-cig as medicines

EU ERZÜRNT RAUCHER
E-Zigarette soll als Arznei behandelt werden


http://www.handelsblatt.com/politik...soll-als-arznei-behandelt-werden/9224032.html

- good article .. which makes a refreshing change in the press


e-cigs less harmful than cigarettes
Big tobacco may have its fingers in the pie

short excerpt (my translation):

Already before, several doctors had demanded that the e-cig should remain freely available, because it is less harmful than tobacco, alcohol and foods that contain sugar or fat.
The consumers are also disturbed by the "regulation greed" of the EU. With the hashtag #EUecigBAN the proponents of the e-cig show their anger

Limiting the sale of e-cigarettes would please especially the big tobacco corporations..

. and then several examples of the tweets.

.. and a certain lady that you may know (hint.. hint... ) featured prominently on page 2 - with her tweet on Big Tobacco appreciating e-cig regulation

........

YES! Our Twitterbombs certainly made a noise!
Thank you for supporting us!

Now let us see what the EU Trilogue decides tonight. For vote by the Members of European Parliament in January.

We, the European vapers, are fighters. Fighters for our lives.

Awesome Anja! Are your fingers sore today. I think every other tweet I saw was from you

 

[Anjaffm]

Tee hee, Spazmelda, no, my fingers are not sore at all.

1. I type what we call "10 fingers blind" and very quickly
2. Tweets can be copied - pasted into a new tweet - changed wording a little - and sent out again
3. see 2 - rinse and repeat - especially when tweeting an important link that many people should see

Not only the tabloids can copy & paste when spreading their lies.
WE can also copy & paste (and change the words a little) when spreading the TRUTH.

Har har
