At least they offered more than one side to the story. That's refreshing for a news center. I love the whole "marketing to kids" argument. It's hilarious. Adults hate flavors that taste good, only kids go for that "good tasting" stuff. I guess they wouldn't ..... if the only e-juice flavors were broccoli and liver.

no, then they'll argue that it's being advertised to kids as healthy

Yup. Then we'd have to outlaw vegetables until the Gee Oh Vee could find a way to make a cucumber cost 10 dollars a piece. Spend a little more time stopping child abuse and gang activity and little less time worrying about what I'm smoking.....err, vaping.

Rhode Island is financially broke, the politicians rely on the income from the cigarette excise tax. This article is all the excuse that they will need to ban electronic cigarettes. If the leaders want to ban it, then it will be a done deal. I just hope that they are too busy with other matters, to pay any notice to e-cigs.

Need to come out with poo-patty flavoring

Seriously, waiting to see what my adopted state, good ole NY, does -- this year they're counting on more cig tax $ than ever (and once again anticipating taxes from res cig sales -- wonder how well that's going to work)
