i'm still a sneaky vapor... i figure why give people something else to whine about if it can be avoided
I'm a sneaky vaper, too, and I don't feel a bit guilty about it.
It would be different if the anti-smokers had used just a small bit of common sense and consideration in their campaign against us. They didn't. I started smoking in 1977, when people could still smoke pretty much everywhere. I always attempted to be considerate in my smoking because I thought people shouldn't have to deal with smoke if they didn't want to.
But I have been pushed too far. First, it is completely unreasonable to refuse to provide smokers with an inside space they can use in inclement weather IF we are talking about a very large building. In large buildings, there always tend to be areas where people seldom go. And scientifically, arguments about small amounts of smoke escaping from doorways and destroying people's health simply don't hold water. People completely forget about the scientific fact of diffusion. To test such effects of second-hand smoke, put rats in an open aquarium and fill an aquarium across the room with smoke. See how fast they get cancer after the smoke from the other aquarium is diluted by a roomful of air.
Of course, even that isn't good enough. Apparently, the ventilation outside isn't enough for anti-smokers, either. Well, I certainly hope they stay away from sidewalks and parking decks. The poisons emitted from automobiles are much stronger. When is the last time you heard of someone committing suicide by shutting themselves in a garage with a million lit cigarettes?
The smoking issue is NOT a health issue. It is a matter of people wanting to pass judgment on and control the behaviors of people who do things they don't. To me, judging and controlling others beyond the bounds of what is necessary to maintain a peaceful, functioning society is the right of a Higher Power, and usurping that position is more "evil" than whatever the people being judged are doing.
Anti-smokers had ZERO consideration for my comfort as they marched forward in their demonization of smokers. They have no right to expect me to have any consideration for theirs when it comes to
vaping.
So I use a black DSE901, cover the LED, hold all the vape in, and I vape literally EVERYWHERE. People lost the right to expect me to be considerate by demonstrating a blatant unwilllingness to be even slightly considerate of smokers. I get what I want and need, no one has any idea, no one is hurt, and I don't have to deal with their unreasonable objections and demands based on nothing other than ignorance, prejudice, and socially sanctioned feelings of moral superiority.
