Been vaping about nine months now (thanks for all the info received here) and had my first issue today. At a New Jersey theme park and approached by security who was convinced he had bagged a smoker rather than an ex-smoker. He asks me what I have in my hand. Politely explain it is an electronic cig and that it is vapor not smoke. He says I know it is not smoke but when people see it they think it is smoke and tells me I have to vape in the smoking section. Rather than getting into a long discussion about using e-cigs to stop smoking and make all the complainers happy, i say ok and ditch him. Had to utilize stealth methods for the rest of my visit. I can't see why these folks can't see that former smoker sitting in the middle of the smoking section is very much like someone trying to quit drinking sitting a bar all night.

Hi, it sounds like you did the right thing. That is an interesting comparison. You can see reformed smokers all around us, every day.
At my workplace, I still go to the smoking spot, partially because it is a large employer, and I have friends that I would only see in the smoking area. I also quietly vape elsewhere.

Idk what new jersey law is but in Michigan the policy in any place is self dictated and different from place to place. If their law is the same and I think it might be you were in the wrong. That being said, I too think it silly that they make vapers go stand around the crap we got away from.
