YES big cig fighting BUT also BIG taxes drying up from sales of cigs!!! E-cigs have been a life saver for me, after smoking for 30 years, no more smell, no more yellow film everywhere in the house, I feel so much better no more chemicals and tar!!! I don’t use pens I have to fill myself I have the pen with a pod you just change out!!! I have been so happy that someone invented this product for MANY it has saved their lives!!!

Carlin on death: a comedian flops he died on stage but if he succeeds he slays the crowd.

Connect the dots between better health, less lethargy, greater energy (especially with energy needed to care for a baby) improved overall quality of life, more positive outlook, hence happier spouse, and hence greater happiness.

Its called a virtuous cycle.

California is taxing the heck out of vape cartridges. Some stores have discontinued vape products but are still selling cigarettes. Go figure.

I’ve never smoked or done drugs ... but I used to do photofinishing for a police department so I’ve seen shit I’d rather not have. That said there was this one time when the detective dropping off film was just too tickled.

Seems he’d taken a call about a home robbery and while he was interviewing the home owner he finally asked if anything else was taken.

From memory of the telling.

“They stole my stash.”

“... Really? How much was taken?”

So the guy told him how much to the ounce and that it had been hidden in his spare bong that looked just like this one, which the guy then produced.

Like I said, the officer was tickled no end.

I do not Vape or smoke.

But vaping has been around for at least 5-10 years, why all of sudden is this a epidemic? What has changed.

Because some of these cases some of these people have not been doing it for that long.

Yes, despite the best efforts of the u.n., the death rate remains at 100% world wide. 👺

Smoke of any kind should not be inhaled into the lungs in a habitual manner. Signed, an ex- cigarette and pot smoker. However if people want to continue with all that plus vaping well so be it.

I’m at almost eleven years off of regular cigarettes thanks to ecigs.

30-year former smoker, too.

Guess they want us all to go back to regular ecigs.

When my Wife was dealing with breast cancer a few years ago, ALL of the medical professionals said, “Better than smoking. I’d stick with it if it keeps you off of ‘em.”

Though it didn’t involve drugs, the particular Detective also shared another incident, though one he’d heard from another PD, about a fellow who robbed a convenience store.

The clerk told the guy their policy was to get them on their way with what they wanted, said he wasn’t even trying to see his face, then he asked the guy if he wanted to know how much he was taking because if so he could count it for him.

Guy said okay.

So the clerk quickly counted up the bills and started counting the quarters, they guy said keep the change, then he wrote down the total on a gas receipt and handed the guy the money in a bag.

The guy signed the gas receipt, took his copy and left.

Apparently it took a moment for the clerk to realize what had happened, but as soon as he did he locked the door and then called the cops about the signed confession for armed robbery he had.

But wait.....this was the government's solution to cigarette smoking...along with patches, gum....all methodically injecting "poison" into your system.

Can hardly wait for the marijuana stats....another government solution.

How many people were dying by cigarettes that ran smoking-doctor adverts on tv until the mid 1960s?

And we are at 6 people and this is the insane response?

Why arent they out there for banning cars? Banning bathtubs? Banning bikes and pedestrian crossings?

This incredibly overhyped hyperreaction has way more behind it and i believe its big cigarettes.

Most the deaths are caused by thc oil vaped and made in who knows whose basement. Also in the news today. Mosquitoes killed more this year then vaping.
