Number of US students who've tried e-cigarettes has doubled, CDC says - NBC News.com
Somehow, they are still making the connection that many flavors means that juice and e- cig manufacturers are marketing intentionally toward teens and kids. We really need to start telling people that :
1. adults make these things for adults
2. Teens will try just about anything even without flavors. >.> .
3. If anything, adults who use e-cigs do not encourage teens to use these things if they are below 18, just like any other nicotine based product.
I'm a bit angry because as a group of people here we talk all day about responsibility and underage users and we have this down, but somehow we let people think up news stories like this without response back to the networks or the organisations mentioned in the stories. It's time for some activism, people!
