First of all please remove me from your list because I removed everything you said, I don't want to do anything that harms our chances of moving forward.
Now for my real opinion.
You are all cowards! Every single one of you know that this product is healthier, and tests have been done to prove that. I had a wife of a pulmonary doctor order one for their boy in the ARMY. Even doctors, and health associations are saying positive things, yet a few of you want to hide the truth? You are all playing right into the FDA's hands. You are afraid, of the truth, which is the product DOES help people quit smoking, and it DOES reduce harm. The only way you are ever going to stop this ban, is by showing, for example, Mr. Bob who smokes, and has a brother with a lung cancer, caused by smoking, is that there is a healthier way, and you do have other options to quit. You veterans of this site should know that already. If you are going to stand up for something, stand up for the TRUTH, and not your half ..., let's say this, but not say this.
When customers call me, I tell them about what's happening with the FDA, or at least the ones I have a conversation with, so I am not trying to hide the truth, because the truth, is o our side, not theirs!
I removed the wording, just to satisfy this site's rule's, but I promise you if the FDA try's to ban this product, I will do everything in my power to fight them. We need to all unite as one, the larger suppliers don't care, they have already made their millions, they will wait out the couple of years it take to do the trials, or move their operations overseas. We need to unite for the truth, and the truth is, there is a product that can save millions of lives NOW, is healthier, and helps people quite an evil addiction, but yet we the people allow a bunch of fat ... billionaire's to force poison down our throat. Until we unite as one, and fight for the TRUTH, we will never win this fight. We the small suppliers need to form a coalition, and fight back, lets put our money together, and take them head on, and lets hire an attorney, as to fight any possible ban. A grand jury of 12 people hearing our case will definitely go for our side. Everyone has lost a family member, or friend, that has died because of cigarettes, or knows someone who does, so it would not be hard to convince a jury, that the FDA is the cigarette makers, and pharmaceutical companies right arm, the same goes with congress, an senate, and to be seen, the president.
Lets wage a war in the media, and in the courts. Talk is cheap, and hiding behind rules, that hide the truth is even cheaper. It’s time to FIGHT!
I have only been in business for less than a few weeks, but if I had the funds, I swear to everything I know, I would hire the best attorney in the world and spent every last dime I had to fight for the TRUTH. I would feel better sleeping at night, knowing that I was able to help a child be with his father for an extra 20, or more years, I would feel like my life meant something. I just wish I had the ability, and that's why I am asking for all the small suppliers to join together. Together we could afford to fight this in the courts. Lets stand up, for those who are not able to stand up for themselves. Let's finally take on the biggest drug lords of all time (cigarette makers, and pharmaceutical companies )
Once there is a complete ban, I will follow the law, and close my store, but until then, I will do whatever I can to make this attempt to ban this product stop. I even emailed the White House, not that, it will most likely make any difference, but I am doing what I can.
