Another story with no info! Why is it when people get sick from bad salad mix,they find out everything from where it came from to what date it was packaged but when speaking about "Ecigs" nothing. They look for nothing and it stops with "Ecigs" as the cause.

- Old story. Rehashed with extremely little detail to promote an agenda of fear among the ignorant.
- Canada.
- Minor who shouldn't have had the gear.
- Horribly misused.
- 100% user error, by a minor.

Who is to blame?
The minor who intentionally misused equipment he shouldn't have had in the first place.

Although this did happen recently up here in Canada, this particular incident is from Montana. Also I'm curious why "Canada" was on of your points?

The Canadian incident has been presented in the US as a US case that may have bearing on regulation.

Since it's a teen in the US, feel free to replace "Canada" with "Illegal."

Now..
Did you insinuate I meant something derogatory?
Is there a problem?o_O

User error means absolutely nothing to John Q Public. All they hear is e-cig explodes and teen got a bunch of broken teeth. Details don't matter to John Q public, they don't care, and don't need to care, as it doesn't affect them. Most people don't care one iota about issues that don't affect them, and vapers are a small segment of the population at large. Stories like this are all just one more nail in the gallows that will hang us all. Stock up folks, it's coming...

John Q isn't as dumb as you think he is.
John Q just doesn't care.
That's why corporations can buy government agencies and get away with it.

Some devices have been known to explode.

Click-bait journalism at its very best, right there.

Some models of cars have been known to explode... especially when drunk, inexperienced, or just plain negligent drivers careen off the road and plow into an immovable object. According to their logic, shouldn't the cars be to blame? :confused:
