E-cigarette bans and propaganda are driven by cronyism, not public health

Food for thought:

It gets worse: in a bald-faced attempt to promote their agenda, the City’s leaders decided to simply redefine the words “tobacco” and “smoke” to squeeze e-cigarettes into current anti-smoking laws.[....]

This tactic smacks of despotism, as arbitrary and capricious as lawmakers can get. Am I being hyperbolic? Not only public health, but the rule of law could become collateral damage if regulators can simply re-define commonly used, long-established words to suit their agendas. What stands in the way of declaring certain words in the Code of Federal Regulations (or for that matter, the Bill of Rights) as something other than what we have always thought?

Thank you for sharing. We are fortunate to have Dr Ross supporting vaping.

What is really disturbing, however, is that a few members of ECF actually support these bans on vaping.

I know, and yes that's pretty disturbing. From time to time I have come across posts by such people here, who are quite obviously not on our side. I add them to my ignore list and truck on. What they are doing here would seem to be infiltration and attempted subversion. I've no time for the likes of them.
