Thoughts on social media and handing ammo to the opposition

Well after a bit of computer difficulty (man I need a new computer).
Petition signed.
Thanks Myrany

Can I sign that petition being an American? I'd like to help my fellow vapers overseas.

Yes, as Myrany said. The more people that sign it the better. I did too and I'm in Canada. If there are a lot of non-European votes it will help point out that this is a world wide phenomenon and we care about it.

I agree and I will be also just fine no matter what happens. I don't even use nic anymore . The problem is how many people who would have switched to vaping will do it when they either have to use the gear that will be legally obtainable but not good to vape on, or get things illegally, or make their own hardware and juice?

This would really slow down the reduction of smoking and the growth of vaping.

Isn't that in actuality the FDA's and BP's end game? We are annoying little pests that must be eradicated.

Good luck. From where I sit, we are getting stronger by the minute. Watch the signatures on the EU petition. It's fantastic!

I signed and then headed over to FB. There is a SHARE link on the avaaz.org site and I jumped on it. I've never mass messaged before. It was tremendous! -- Like a massive and glorious ecig cloud wafted over the land of Facebookers.

Lately I've been seeing a lot of posts on FB regarding e-cigs and the propaganda surrounding the anti-e-cig movement.

Personally I don't think it's a good idea to share the anti propaganda because it gives them a larger audience. I would rather see a lot of the positives surrounding e-cig use posted and shared.

Example: A guy posts a picture of his exploded mech mod that could eventually be used as an example of how dangerous vaping can be to our health. I'm near certain they won't even explain that it was a sub ohm setup and not a 'normal' mainstream e-cig.

You thoughts?

And please keep it respectful and remember there are all flavors of people with differing viewpoints.

Although I do have a FB account I don't really use it at all. I think I have a total of 20 friends or so lol. Secondly I probably wouldn't even give the person that posts a pic of an exploded mech to show the dangers of esmoking... On second, I might post a pic of a child crushed under an automobile to show the dangers if driving a car.

Don't nobody trip. I probably really wouldn't do that, but a stupid post on FB would deserve a stupid reply. That's all I'm sayin!
