Looks like I'll no longer be shopping at the Galleria NY, Mass. Pyramid malls to be tobacco-free - State Wire - The Buffalo News

I pay no attention to these smoking bans that include e-cigs.
If I feel the need to vape while shopping ... Stealth
Restrooms and outside ... No huge vapor clouds
One of the only reasons I go to the Galleria is because ppl don't look at you funny while vapping because they have a kiosk. Just wrote them to express my displeasure with this decision info@pyramidmg.com
Good to see there is a mall near Nashua that allows e-cigs. My wife and I will be there in July to check out the area for a possible move...and more importantly I'll get a chance to spend a couple minutes in the tunnel(SkyVenture)
I vape in public. I don't care. As long as I'm not blowing vapor in people's faces, they shouldn't mind. There is no secondhand smoke so I'm not harming their health in the slightest. I've vaped in malls while I was walking. It's no more annoying that someone using their cell phone. This was in Indiana though. It's a fairly conservative state. Nobody really cares.

pheasant lane mall in nashua if your vapeing a cig look alike just tell security your vapeing 3 of us do
I was in a couple of bars last night and vaped on my way to the restroom...was told twice "No smoking," and when I showed them what I was doing, I got "I don't care- it still looks like smoking and it smells." I didn't vape anymore there after that, but the ignorance of people still astounds me.
Weird...The few times I've been to a bar in the past couple years they were more intrigued than anything. The last time I had to sit there and try to explain to the bar tender why I preferred my SGV3 on a ProVari(i.e. huge ecig) over the tiny 808 cartos they sell at the mall.
Don't know about you'all ...
However, the only real e-cigarette paranoia that I've witnessed is in print.
I've been vaping in public for 4 years and have talked tons of people ...
smokers and non-smokers alike. No big deal ... Even non-smokers often
just say "Oh, that's nice"
The media "stirs up the pot"

In the interest of promoting health, you'd think that malls would also prohibit high fat, sugar,and/or sodium content in anything sold there. It's OK if you contribute to obesity, heart attack, and high blood pressure, but don't let people use something that replaces tobacco with a safer alternative.
You can buy a salt and grease soaked pretzel or pizza and a 60 oz sugar laced soft drink, but don't dare vape afterwards.

The mall has no concerns regarding health when banning harm reduction products.
Just another anti tobacco thing. Smoking is already banned indoors ... Banning
tobacco use anywhere on the property is just another anti tobacco thing. Throwing
PVs into the mix is just a given because it reminds people of smoking so, of course,
e-cigs must be banned.
When Malls ban the use of any tobacco related product inside and outside on
their property ... They are also basically telling everyone who works there
including the shop owners and their employees to Quit or Die.
Some stores in the mall may sell tobacco products ... but that's OK.
Employees, shop owners, and service people can't even take a quick smoke break
because that would involve walking to the car then driving off premise.
Outdoor bans have nothing to do with health.
If ya push ANTZ in the corner proving e-cigs pose no harm to the public ...
They will just switch from health to "save the children"
