Governor to Enforce 120 Day Ban on Flavored E-Cigarettes
Montana... enforcing ‘emergency rules’ that will temporarily restrict the sales of flavored e-cigarettes starting on Wednesday, December 18.
“Due to the increase in illness, injury and deaths throughout Montana and the country due to flavored vaping products
...if you are 18 or older you can still buy non-flavored vape products, or tobacco-flavored vape products...
...we know that about 2,000 people across the country have been injured and 40 or so have been killed through the use of these products.
Nicotine exposure in youth causes long-term structural and functional changes in the brain, can lead to long-lasting effects like lower impulse control and mood disorders, and can prime young brains for addiction to other drugs such as c.....e and m..h.

Wow, just wow! And where is the supporting evidence for these statements by Raph Graybill, lawyer for Governor Bullock? Is he free to make up his own facts? Or maybe he's having a psychotic episode?

Hard facts aren't that important to this crowd. Looking good in Washington and pleasing the various pressure groups, is. As a thoroughly disgusted Montanan, I've already seen one vape shop close in my town...three are left...for how long? Fools who are happy to make major decisions against adult vapers choices, without bothering to try to understand us. Grimm Green said rightly "Asking a vaper to only vape tobacco flavored juice is like asking an alcoholic to only drink whiskey flavored water".
Thank You LoveVanilla for posting this.

Some of us tend not to be political. However, when a New York billionaire spends $180 million to criminalise a lifesaving technology that we depend on, we have two choices: accept a certain fate — or make our voices heard.

Montana has a significant advantage in that Bullock has national ambitions i.e. Montana Governor Steve Bullock said on Monday he was quitting his bid for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination..." And 15 million vapers who will fight hard to ensure he never succeeds given with his misguided policy.

No one supports underage vaping. However, Bullock is inflicting direct harm with actions that are both misguided -- and immoral. Cigarette smoking is the largest preventable cause of death in the US killing 480,000 every year. And Bullock is taking actions that will drive many directly back to cigarettes — and half will die.

The wolf is at the door. Visit those remaining vape shops and light a fire. Everyone of their customers should be calling the governor. And these shops need to network around the state.

Good luck @VileCaveFurby!
