I was thinking about that as well. If marijuana paraphernalia sellers can get away with selling them as tobacco pipes(most of time til Fed Raid), why not relabel e-cigarettes as flavor vapers or something of that effect?
Probably won't happen now, but if e-cigs are banned then I could see this happening. Nicotine
juice is what will be harder to find in this situation, but just look at all the overseas pharmacies that exist for prescription drugs but don't require a prescription. Its pretty easy to buy them and worst case scenario for the transaction is seizure from customs.
When the FDA regulates tobacco then they will be caught in the exact same spot as perscription drugs unless they schedule it as a controlled substance, and they can't do this because that would hurt the tobacco industry.
In the end I think its to our advantage to have the FDA regulate nicotine than Congress passing a ban on
e-liquid for this very reason.
A ban on liquid nicotine and e-cigarettes will not be the end of the world IMO, it will just take some creativity by the suppliers to get through the holes in the system.
