I love my cherry tobacco mix and I'm 59.
I hate the kind of discussion where it's only argued from the adolescent point of view. Please, adults like 'childish' things too, including 'fun flavors'.

That I can Agree With.

Ditch any Cartoons from e-Cigarette Ads.
Kinda agree. But at the same time there are cartoons targeted at adults too, which even youngsters may still find cool.

I saw Ditch the Cartoon References and take any Ammunition away from the Government Dolts.

How in the hell can Sen Durbin talk about addictive substance in children and not compare alcohol which is the largest abused substance by youth.

320,000 young people aged 15-29 years die annually, from alcohol-related causes, resulting in 9% of all deaths in that age group. Targeted audiences don't matter, all sporting events on major broadcasting networks hammer these ads in every game on TV.

Answer, money!

Because it's irrelevant to the discussion.

Also, comparing 1950's product marketing and health claims to modern marketing is pretty sneaky. Science has evolved considerably since then. Surely there still unknowns with e-cigarettes, but certainly not as much as with smoking back then.
