Vaping = Veggie burgers

[Mdport]

Analogy Time
When I hear the criticism that vaping has not been proven safe:

I think your veggie burger should be banned because: it looks like beef, you are trying to imitate beef and veggie burgers have not gone thru exhaustive lengthy clinical trials to prove that they are safe.

So there!

Pretty sure the USDA regulates food products. Should the FDA regulate vape products?

I do not think the FDA should regulate vaping.
We will end up with states that allow ......... but ban vaping.
Not good.

I think we should all learn to DIY for just in case!

but vape tastes good unlike veggie burgers

Well. Everything in my veggie burgers are clinically shown to be safe to eat.

But this topic is interesting because suppose you have a bunch of ...... PETA members harassing you night and day to stop eating cows. And then one day you decide "Ok, I will have a veggie burger instead."
Not even ...... PETA members (and they are, I know) will then turn around and yell at you for eating something that resembles cow meat but which carries none of the e. coli typically found in ground beef. They would applaud you for finding an alternative which may be healthier and safer and certainly nicer for the cows.

Now if only we could bring the ANTZ to a place where they were less obnoxious than PETA

I don't think I could successfully quit beef it I had to wear a veggie burger patch.

Yes, yes. We should be applauded for having a safe alternative to smoking.

Well that's what grinds my gears. For ages we've heard nothing but how smoking stinks and puts carcinogens in the air, and will eventually kill us. So we find something that does none of the above, and are still facing bans and social stigmas.

LOL oh come on, you just need a good burger vape

So there!

Excellent analogy!
Thank you!

Bwaahaahaa! Well said!

But, you know, it looks like a burger! oh, the horror! It looks like a burger! Won't somebody think of the children?
Second hand veggie burger breath - the new scourge threatening our children! *runs away screaming"

Yup.
Some people are never satisfied, are they?
Can't allow the victimes of oppression to free themselves, can we now?
After all, whom would be be able to oppress then? And life is so sad when you have nobody to oppress and look down upon.

Now Im confoooosed... I thought PETA was an acronym for People Eating Tasty Animals

So we all end up eating veggie burgers living to 120 yo and in 43 yrs the government imposes a "Logans Run" senerio since there are way too many old people not paying taxes....

 

[mountainbikermark]

Once they figure out a way to put a tax stamp on e-juice the debate will be over. It'll suddenly be deemed safe as an alternative to tobacco. Once the 4th branch of government (big corporations) gets their hand in making e-juice you'll see all the regulatory commissions lauding how great it is for freedom from nicotine addiction.
The problem now is no e-juice lobbyists that have any clout

my veggie burgers are 100% free roaming vegetables.

I don't see why e-juice manufacturers, who are overwhelmingly small business owners, have to prove beyond a doubt their products are safe, instead of giving vapers and the e-cig industry the benefit of the doubt. This attitude that ANTZ have that vapers are presumed guilty until they prove themselves innocent is un-American IMO.

If anything, the ANTZ should have to prove their prejudices against e-cigs and juices, something they can't do without jumping to conclusions, suppression of facts about vaping that disprove their anti-nicotine narrative, or even outright fabrication to turn the public against vapers.

We need to campaign against jelly & jam sold at farmer's markets. Who knows what is going into that stuff!

I guess its easier to BS someone than to tell the truth....
