So true, Buzzlove, freedom is taken a little each day by those who know better do I and who claim that their intentions for me are the very best. I run from anyone who claims to "care" for me. I know that their care will come with power and control over me.
I never trust anyone who seeks to govern me.

Its pretty much every thing just big brother as a whole. I know our miniscule plight as vapors dose not fall in to the same category as this but some of the things our gooberment dose reminds me of this.
When the Nazis came for the communists,
I remained silent;
I was not a communist.

When they locked up the social democrats,
I remained silent;
I was not a social democrat.

When they came for the trade unionists,
I did not speak out;
I was not a trade unionist.

When they came for the Jews,
I remained silent;
I wasn't a Jew.

When they came for me,
there was no one left to speak out.

I agree thats its not fair we are being attacked from pretty much all sides.
But fact of the matter is we are.
So what are you doing about it?

Do you answer calls to action from Casaa, and or are you a member?

Do you wright rebuttals to editors of news channels and papers who spread antivape propaganda?

Do you donate money to Casaa?
Every little bit helps if 5$ a month is all you can afford thats awesome! Well its not awesome you only have 5$ free dollars a month but awesome you will donate 5$ when you are on a tight budget.

I deserve to be a vapor and I pledege to my fellow vapors to continue to answer calls of actions from Casaa, wright letters to those who print or pass on antivaping propaganda, and continue to donate funds to Casaa so they can continue to fight for us.

What are you going to do, to deserve to be a Vapor?

I hope all who read this will get involved and do something about the situation we are facing. No matter what you do grate or small at least do SOMETHING!

Also big big ATTA BOYS all around for all of those already involved and taking action.

"wright" ?

I think you kinda failed the spelling test?

Lighten up there, edyle. "Kinda" is not a word nor is it a contraction of two words, it is mere slang unbecoming of one possessing your standards. Your statement which ends with a question mark is not an inquiry; it is a declarative statement regarding your thought. I kinda think you flunked the grammar and punctuation test.

I think it is vital to stand up for what you believe in and let yourself be heard.

The passive defeatist attitude is why US government is the way it is today because to darn many sit back, do nothing and justify it by saying it doesn't matter what I do or say it won't make a difference.

So people don't vote, they don't take an active stance on things that matter to them or stand up to protect their rights, they passively accept what ever happens and only put forth the effort to complain bitterly about it.

Many times throughout history people took a stance, a few banded together and raised their voices and they did not stop until their few voices became many and too loud to ignore.

If you don't like something you have to fight to change it, no one is ever going to hand you anything, if in the end you fail at least you can say you gave it your all.

This, being Memorial Day weekend, the first American Revolution comes to mind. I await the second, perhaps the second will come through the ballot.

I'm involved in advocacy, I'm working with politicians at various levels but I've never thought that made me more deserving to vape as I said it means I'm involved and active and to be brutally honest it's not for me or anyone on here I couldn't care less about us I'm fighting purely so that people will have it available as an option in the future. If your currently vaping and have not made plans and preparations for legislation then your negligent as you have no reason to not be aware of what's happening or prepare for it. This fight is about the future not the present so much and it's a future worth fighting for best done by those able to do it which not everyone is.

Once you start to go into the whole "who deserves" thing we're screwed and will be doing more damage then good to our cause as well as alienating a lot of people in the process not the best way to go about things but each to their own. My view isn't going to change neither is yours so we'll just have to agree to disagree and go our respective ways :).
