So if you can see that People are not in Favor of All Regulations, why did you post all that Hype in Post #43? Because it Clearly states the Direct Opposite of what you are Now Saying.
Because this poll represents the superficial thinking that our side puts forth. We don't want FDA regulations, but we have poll that shows 91% do want the core regulation that FDA has put forth. The regulation that rules them all. I think if all ECF people were polled as a requirement to stay on the site, that it wouldn't go down that much, so I don't think this is just the 130 people responding.
People claim they don't want regulations. FDA thread is around 120 pages of people upset over FDA proposed regulations. Yet, they vote yes on a poll like this? If I were a regulator, I'd be convinced that vaping community doesn't really know what it wants and seems to favor the idea that this product is likely dangerous to kids, which is red flag to rest of the planet that it is likely dangerous to all humans. And ought to be treated as such, which ANTZ politicians and scientists will be glad to deliver on.
And I'm one who thinks FDA regulations are rather tame. I expect the "ban the sales to kids thing" cause every adult issue goes that way. But once that is accepted, it really doesn't matter what else is on the table, cause as long as that item is foregone conclusion, then everything else is tame compared to it. Of course products ought to include health warnings and spend 50 trillion dollars to establish themselves as safe enough by ANTZ standards if (wait, that deserves capitalization), I mean IF you favor a ban on sales to kids.
How you gonna argue this is my right as an adult if you know the product exists for everyone and part of everyone includes kids, and you, in all your political wisdom want to concede that this is a highly dangerous product if kids use them? That doesn't compute and is why vaping community deserves regulations that don't ban the product outright but do regulate what is already conceded upon as a highly dangerous product.
Yet, you (a reasonable vaper) want to argue - it's not
that dangerous. And yet, you as ex-smoker started smoking at what, age 13? So, this other item that you sometimes argue is deadly, but you are magically alive 60 years later after using it for decades, is knowingly going to be used by at least some youth. And they'll go onto be living in their 50's, 60's or even 110's. So, reality looks a lot like smoking isn't as dangerous as they say, but you want to side with political position that says vaping could be rather dangerous to kids, when reality is very likely that it isn't even a little bit hazardous to kids. If it is highly dangerous to kids, then it is likely fairly dangerous for adults. But if science and vaping community wants to put forth not all that dangerous to adults, then you are lying to minors by saying it is hazardous to them, especially given YOUR history with smoking.
Stop lying!
