I vape wherever I feel comfortable doing so as a rule. I usually ask if it is ok and I don't return to places that say no. However, my vaping occasionally makes someone else uncomfortable. For example, in a local bar where vaping is encouraged (they even sell disposables) a smoking nazi made all the nasty comments to others at her table, gave all the negative looks, then finally complained about my "smoking" to the waitress who set her straight. I had made sure the waitress was aware of my e-cig use earlier because it blows a lot of vapor. I've had mostly good experiences. I think we need to avoid being "in your face" about it but we also need to not act like we are doing anything wrong. If it is ok to vape then we should with confidence. The more the public at large is respectfully exposed to vaping the better we will be. Being respectful doesn't mean "caving" to the anti's...it just means respecting that everyone else has the same right to choose, as much as they are able, what they breathe as we do. Our rights are no more important than theirs. Should an anti choose to confront me in a disrespectful manner they may get a surprise when I inform them they are invading my space and it isn't very wise on their part to approach a stranger in such a way. There are a lot of crazies about and for all you know....I may be one while giving them my "look".
