Does anyone even care that a person died .. ?? Who had a family .. ?? Who could have lived next door to you .. ?? Sheesh .. :(


It's beyond horrible Willie.
Whoever is responsible for selling the crap needs their full due.
Problem with the synthetic stuff...the labs pop up like mushrooms.
I don't recall if they got the people that made the stuff down here where a young man in Miami was eating the man's face while on that stuff.
You can STILL walk into mini markets and see little packages of 'whatever' "incense".

Healthcare, anti vaping/smoking, media need to get off the "vaping" aspect and deal with the REAL problem - that people are messing with some seriously dangerous synthetic drugs.

There might be an incentive for the kids to lie about what they were vaping. Not a huge upside to telling their doctors and parents that they were using illegal stuff. Easier just to blame it on vaping and play the innocent victim.



Exactly.
Like they are going to fess up to what they REALLY used...and get in trouble for THAT.

If this had been your Son or Daughter, I'd venture to guess folks would have a bit different outlook .. but, it's ECF, where things generally devolve into Conspiracy Theories / Secret Plots and the like .. perpetuated by the same general Gang ..
It's not that people don't care, Willie. I would imagine most everyone does. We are also concerned that the media seems to be masking the real cause of what happened. By doing so, they are not only not focusing on the real cause, the illicit substances these people were vaping, but also that they keep on adding to the current hysteria over vaping. Because THAT is likely to end up causing the death of a whole lot of people who will no longer have vaping nicotine as an alternative to cancer-causing combustible cigarettes.

Young stupid people.


There but for the grace of God go I.

I think we have all done some stupid foolish things in our lives - but I think the stakes today are much higher than in "our day"

I'm so glad in my age, K9 and spice weren't around. I have to regularly peruse head shops and stuff to figure out what my goofy ones were doing.

Mine was a simpler time. Synthetic drugs are the devil.

Yes, I do feel for the kids, yes they are stupid, most human beings are from time to time, but most people are mad, not about the deaths etc., but how they are being used in the media.

I usually do at least a couple stupid things before breakfast.

It's not about the kids though. They are doing what kids do. They are being exploited : first by the seller then by the media.

If I was a parent I would be furious-- with the MEDIA.

However, they were extremely popular. You'd need a drip atomizer designed for squonking. I used a Reomizer from Reo Mods; top cap fit loose, returned to Reo Mods and was returned still loose. Gave up and its now in the vape drawer with the rest my other unused mods.

That makes me not want to get one. I mean I don't even like squonking. I probably won't. I mean, I highly doubt I will ever squonk with a mechanical mod anyway!

This makes ONE more day I have not purchased anything shiny. Go me. I should probably start keeping track like noting DAY one of no purchasing on the calendar, etc.

    I believe that turned out to be false, but no one would ever know from the media. I think it turned out he was just a schizophrenic. What they did find in his system was the legal stuff that can trigger people who are prone to schizophrenia.
