A: well it makes it more attractive to kids, and it's deadly poison if they drink it.
B: well, it's not really "deadly poison," the really harmful stuff is concentrated and doesn't come in bright packaging, and has warning labels and CRP. The label has nothing to do with it.
A: Kids like this type of stuff, they see it, they'll drink it.
B: if you have small children, keep this away from them, it says so on the bottle. Also, don't leave the cap off.
A: but marketing to kids is bad.
B: I agree, it's a good thing none of this is marketing to kids
A: but others will see it as marketing to kids
B: well, they're wrong too. Here's a bunch of facts why it's not harmful, it's not being marketed to kids. They use the "for the children" argument to get us to surrender.
A: But we need to protect the children from nicotine
B: *bangs head against wall*
