That just doesn't sit well with some folks.

Idiot libs, they seem to think that Nicotine itself causes lung cancer, instead it is all the smoke...
If we ground up coffee bean and put thin in paper tubes and smoked them it would cause cancer as well! And it sure as hell wouldn’t be the Caffeine that caused the actual cancer...
Same goes for “chew” it is the other stuff in the chew that causes cancer and not the nicotine..
There was a proposal from the RJ Reynolds (sp) Company to make a “peppermint mint that was enhanced with Nicotine” and the Libs screamed like little stuck pigs. Mainly because it would profit “big tobacco”.
I have family members that smoke around harvest season to stay awake (they are farmers). I would much rather they be addicted to “Nicotine Sweets” than damn cigarettes or chew.
NANNY STATE PING!
This was a well written piece by a novelist who is a fellow e-cig convert. Normal people may wonder what the real reason is behind why anti-smoking groups are scared to death that their easy money big pharma and gubmint gravy train is ending. It’s not very complicated and all free people should understand what is happening.
1. Anti smoking groups are funded by contributions from Big Phrma companies that sell competing nicotine replacement products. Gums, patches etc. They stand to lose billions if ecigs take market share.
These “non profit” groups and their boards make 6 figure salaries. They were not doing this out of their altruistic benevolent concern for the health of mankind.
2. It looks like smoking, even though there is no smoke. All of the money and cultural social engineering to make the act look socially unacceptable would be flushed down the toilet.

Because for the leftist/statists who now run the “West,” it is all and only about POWER. And read your Orwell. What is power to that ilk? The ability to inflict pain on others. Period.
The things do work however quality of the devices vary. US Customs regularly confiscates shipments without cause. They’re legal so why confiscate them?
The real issue is an alliance between the US government and the tobacco companies. The government hates them because they haven’t figured out how to tax them as heavily as analog smokes. Tobacco companies are against them because it cuts into their bottom line.
Why do some airlines specifically ban e-cigs, which don’t foul the air on planes?

I don’t fly because of TSA but I bought an e-cig and liked it then went back to my regulars because I had the same reaction to both. You are a leper.
No biggie..my tobacco tax dollars pay for illegal health care so I’m helping make the world a better place..../sarc on
What kind of ladies’ name is Lionel? Weird!

Fascists are nevery happy until they are able to openly kill their detractors! We are on that path and they are not even hiding their intentions!
Welcome Tyranny with open arms citizen!
