the media has been attacking us pretty badly lately. the local newspaper has been particularity bad. my boss at work really ...... me off as well. we have a bulletin board at work and he thought it would be a good idea to post one of these articles knowing full well that one of his employees is a vaper. i asked him if was trying to piss me off, because he did.
the article in question was about e-liquid and it was in the buffalo news. it was a great case of "yellow" journalism. it called e-liquid a "dangerous neurotoxin" and said that "even small amounts even when diluted can kill". both boldface lies. e-liquid contains nicotine and is a MILD stimulant and small amounts certainly do NOT kill. we all have suffered the effects of juice in the mouth, you spit it out it tastes nasty but it is hardly something that you consider to be deadly. it also babbled on about a couple of cases where young kids drank e-liquid and died... which i can neither confirm or deny, but it was the first i have ever heard of it. has anyone died from diluted e liquid yet? what the article should have been about was being a responsible parrent and keeping your juice away from your kid. it was some of the worst reporting i have read in a while... it really ...... me off. no where did it mention that these devices have led to millions of people quitting smoking that would otherwise still be burning truely toxic cigarettes. it even went as far to say "e-liquid is more dangerous then tobacco". really????? tobacoo kills more then 430,000 people per year. it is the single most lethal thing on the planet. what could be more dangerous then that?? i get the feeling from reading that garbage that the author was in favor of giving the entire industry to big tobacco...... PURE EVIL in so many ways. its downright demonic. vaping needs to remain its own industry and if big tobacco eventually goes out of buisness, good they are nothing but evil murderers
another article that was printed recently basically stated that you should quit smoking using FDA approved gums, patches, and therapy. we all know how in-effective gum and patches are compared to vaping. we also know how effective vaping is.
what are good recent article to read, print, and spread around to combat this non-sense. heck, i would even maybe like to send those articles to the editor of the newspaper that published that garbage and demand that they publish a rebuttal. they really should stick to the facts. stop lying to people, they might be encouraging people to continue to smoke.
