CALLING ON THE VAPING COMMUNITY TO CONTACT PRESIDENT TRUMP

[bnrkwest]

It doesn't hurt to keep calling and sign petitions, so go for it.

Fair enough. But I'm willing to bet that the majority of Americans, regardless of how they feel about Trump, do support it.

Then All the More Reason I Want My Voice to be Heard.

Sadly, I think you are correct. I am a regular twitter user, and so many angry people who have no clue about vaping, or flavors. But even some of his haters are praising this move. I am sick and tired of "think about the children" But seriously people on both sides of the aisle vape, perhaps even a higher percent among liberals who once smoked went to vaping as a safer alternative. I am not saying there are more liberals who vape than conservatives, I am just saying that a larger percentage among that demographic probably vape. Does that make sense?

I don't know about that. There are way more smokers in the states that voted for Trump (Utah is an exception), than states that didn't. Wouldn't it follow that there are also more ex-smokers (and vapers) in those states too (assuming that liberals and conservatives quit at similar rates) ? Why do you think that liberals are more likely to quit smoking via vaping than conservatives?

No that's not what I mean. Say you have a hundred liberals and hundred twenty conservatives who smoke, and 50 conservatives quit by vaping, but 45 liberals quit by vaping. Not that there are more liberals who vape, but that the percentage among just their demo would be higher. I know there are more conservatives who vape and smoked, but even in red states liberals are more likely to have smoked than in blue states. Plus I live in a red state, and I see smokers who complain about sissy vapers. And even now tell me how dangerous vaping is as they puff away on their unfiltered camel.

JAHU...

Looks like New York State has Fallen.

New York just banned flavored e-cigs, starting immediately

Washington DC has proposed a sort of medical registration to vape. You would need a prescrption to buy gear and liquid. I guess that would be better than an outright ban.

So that changes vaping from a tobacco product to a medical drug product? The craziness of all this in numbing

There is no one in govt making any sense of this, no one.

I posted a link in The Deeming thread half jokingly. "How's that flavor ban going in Minneapolis?" The link leads you to full blown violent riots in the streets of Minneapolis. I don't know what they are protestng about but it bad.

I was in a Bar once when a bunch of Regulars got in this Massive Bar Fight. So I got up and started Yelling for people to STOP !

One of My drinking buddies leaned in and told me "There's a Time to Stand Up and Plead for Calm. And then there's a Time to Turn and Walk Away."

Right about then somebody I didn't even know Throws a Chair at me. So Me and my Buddy turned, and we Walked Away.

I think that is How a Lot of People feel Right Now.

 

[bnrkwest]

I think we are all caught in this bar fight.

I think the bar may be on fire.

You are right!

Nobody's mentioned it in this thread so far, but do you know who vapes, or at least used to? Rush Limbaugh (he vaped and marketed for one of the companies rebranding and overcharging for the original Lavatube). If there's someone who might be able to convince the President, it's his golfing buddy, right?

Now we just need to explain to Rush (I think he still takes callers?) that it's THC oil additives that are causing the sickness, and not nicotine ejuices.
