Chuck Schumer wants FDA to regulate NOW!

[leftyandsparky]

What they need to worry about is whip-its. My 13 yr old explained what that is and how easy it to buy. That’s what’s going on with kids today, not ecigs.

whip-its.

N2O cartridges for whip cream canister, don’t have to be 18 to buy them and now gas stations are selling them.

Yep gotta save the children from bowl cuts and mullets given by untrained parents. Bad haircuts can be gateways to substance abuse.

And bad behavior.

Used to do that at concerts. They weren't sold in gas stations tho. I don't know where they came from. Had a guy. lol

I meant brilliant as in smart and market savvy. No one's fault but mine I started smoking and kept smoking for 46 years. BT did not walk up to me and say try this. My parents didn't offer me my first cig; I pinched it, loved it, bought my first pack that day.

I agree with you, the decision to light up was my decision.

They have gone crazy with it. All over YouTube with it. As little man said, it’s easy to get.

"Whip-it's" are Nitrous-Oxide aka Laughing Gas aka NOs used by your dentist when performing oral surgery and to make your car go really fast. It is supposed to be used in this case to fill Whip Cream canisters.

Guess every generation has to rediscover these things.

Gotta love the gateway, look most abusers have had a bad haircut. Don't ban cigarettes, ban all haircuts - lest one happen upon a bad one and become a substance abuser.

My whole point was that it really wasn’t ecigs. Honestly most kids start off with mom and dads meds, and alcohol.

The guy makes a lot of noise, wondering if a run for governor is in the future. If you live in Ny you know taxes are involved here, eventually. What they don't get is if they regulate the crap out of vaping here the money possibly is going to made in reservations across the state. On a side note Albany is older than dc, and People think it's dirty there.

Whenever somebody says "think of the children" I respond with MARSHMALLOW FLAVORED VODKA. I mean can have at least a little bit of consistency here?

I think you completely missed the point. I never mentioned personal responsibility. I`m talking about the kick-backs, the bribes, the pay-offs to politicians. I`m talking about making your product as addictive as possible through the application of science , getting MD`s to pimp your product as a flipping health benefit, hiding and obscuring the true facts as to the addictive nature of your own product. ALL DONE With zero consideration for the pain it would cause, and obviously, conspiracy. The kind of evil that many will try to deny even exists. I guess in today`s world, that is refereed to as savvy marketing and a keen insight into the market?

Personal responsibility is somewhat mute when you are pitted against a machine of deceit and deception who`s entire business model is based on getting you addicted with the first pack.

SMFH.

I didn't miss your point, I clarified my point.

As did I.

I'd like to jump all over Chuck on this but in my, admittedly anecdotal, experience just about every one of my teenage sons friends vapes. That being said; I'd much rather see them doing that than buying and smoking cigarettes or chewing tobacco.

 

[Letitia]

Around here what many don't realize is that our teens are using 0nic and have never smoked. Vaping is just a thing, they'll get bored and next month it will be another thing.
