Fear Mongering Scare

[Explicit]

What if some sneaky dealer went through all the trouble to make a tincture of his favorite street drug and then gave it away with his ejuice, just to get people hooked????? I'm just asking questions.

Someone mentioned it above and I will reiterate, there is no point of doing this. The cost of the drugs, because they would need to fit a very specific criteria, would vastly outweigh the profit margins he would make from his juice.

Also and take no offense, but these questions could be damaging to the vaping world. Rumors could get started and ignorant people LOVE latching on to this kind of stuff

Just FYI, I was be sarcastic.

Sorry, this has already happened. Local schools have sent fliers to warn parents. It's refined from a popular plant and not oil-based.

I think you are missing the point. No one is "secretly" "spiking" E-liquid with drugs and I challenge you to find an example of this. Whether or not people are putting their own stuff in toppers is not the issue.

If I relapse because of juice I'll go Dexter Morgan on someone real quick. Good thing Vape Pros in STP knows whats up.

I didn't mention anything about "spiking", you did. These kids are using the product in e-cigs by their own choice.

I think we all know the masterminds at Big Bad Tobacco are already spiking e-juice with parasympathomimetic alkaloids in order to get users of their cigalikes addicted...

Obama said it is less harmful to the user than alcohol, so the other is safe...

Note what I bolded. This thread isn't about that, it's about sneaking stuff into juice and then selling it to an unaware customer. Or at least it started out that way.

The old post content purity ploy?

 

[RobinBanks]

I don't worry about it happening with my ejuice any more than I worry about it happening at my local pizza shop.

If you want to have a thread about whether people are putting other stuff in toppers by their own free will, start one. But that isn't what we're discussing here. You seem to want to muddy the waters with unrelated scaremongering.

Every time I buy something that I'm going to ingest, there's a chance it's been adulterated by some crank or crazy somewhere. But what are the odds? I continue to ingest. I don't waste time worrying. Life's a crapshoot...

You sure that's oregano?

 

[Dandreid]

I really don't worry about this to much, but anything can happen anywhere you go.
Fairly local to me this occurred a few years back.

Anything can happen, but if you don't trust a certain vendor, don't use them. I have definitely had that creepy vibe at some stores and I follow my intuition and leave if that's the case (goes for websites too).
I think vaping is much better than smoking and I will continue to vape without worrying about what could happen until I start seeing it happen.

If you do find one doing this, let us know, the money we could save! (Just kidding)

I've always had the thought in the back of my head that just because it says "Made in the USA" doesn't mean the ingredients came from the USA.

The only people I can see doing this is Big Tobacco. They already added things to make their regular cigarettes more addictive, so them doing the same thing to ecigs is very plausible.
