Smokin' In the Boy's Room by Brownsville Station (1973) was a huge hit song. Always remember, "What a person initially believes is powerful because it is easier to fool someone than to convince them they've been fooled."
All of it is propaganda. Spreading lies to make people fear things. It's common in many ways. Unfortunately they are attacking the vape industry. By lying and creating people to change their beliefs about it.
In the US here. Need to start cracking down on vape shops, convenient store and gas stations selling to minors. I see it happening right in front of me. I have seen kids walk in and ask them to fill up their vape mod with "sample" ejuice! For free! No ID, no questions asked. Like, wtf? They're responsible for getting minors hooked on nicotine and that is their main clientele. They see teens walk in the door and see nothing but $$ ?
I walked into two vape shops with my 14 year old son and told them "do not sell to this kid. He's only 14". They're still selling to other kids, but I'm trying to do my part as a parent. I have nothing against vaping, but it's a big problem when they're selling to kids.
It's a problem for me because he's gotten caught twice in school now and it's an immediate suspension and citation with a court date. He has to do community service. If he gets caught again I'm facing major fines and parental responsibility violations. It's bullshit! The police officers in schools should be spending more time cracking down on these vape shops rather than writing multiple tickets a day to kids in school which is nothing but a massive headache for parents.
I quit smoking over night with a mod. They have pills? I HEARD THAT ONE!!! CHANTIX put me in an emergency room with seizures. People have committed suicide on CHANTIX. None of these stupid products worked, accept the mod with the strawberry shortcake e liquid. I'm past 40, I like my strawberry shortcake e liquid, and I quit with an e cig device I smoked for 30 years. These journalists are morons and liars. They lie like that, because they're stupid. People wouldn't let us say, we quit with an e cig, the FDA wouldn't allow anyone to say, that's how they quit smoking. Well I just did, say it and so are a lot of other people, and the FDA and all these other idiots can't stop it, any more! This is so stupid and crazy, I can't believe it!
Vaping helped me quit smoking cigarettes and I have the right to vape whatever flavor i choose to vape if you want it out of children's hands don't sell it to them and you booting me off your site because of my views . Futher more sell vape products in vape stores only to where they need proper ID to purchase the product
A large majority of the media coverage on vaping I consider terribly irresponsible. Even if these news outlets may not be directly paid to do so, their irresponsible fearmongering for clicks and views has done exactly what big tobacco wants and placed an irrational fear in the minds of millions.
If people want to be concerned about vaping they should be looking at the actual facts, which includes that vaping is so much healthier than smoking cigarettes. Sure there may be some concerns, for instance I have had to ensure I drink kore water because vaping dries out my throat, but that's a minor problem. Sure, no one should start vaping nicotine if they're not already addicted ro nicotine, but when it all comes down to it at least they're not smoking cigarettes.
Media has been "well we don't have the studies proving it's safe", if you say there isn't enough data then you should be supporting nonbiased scientific studies. No one is funding studies on vaping. We have so many studies on the harmful effects of cigarettes but many of those were funded indirectly by sources connected with big tobacco companies. I really wish juul wasn't operated by a tobacco company, because as much as I think juuls are stupid, a company that big would be in a good position to fund scientific studies. But a tobacco company isn't going to fund a legitimate study on vaping when they KNOW it's going to support the fact that vaping is far safer than smoking.
On vaping in high schools, I know that in Minnesota it is probably 1 in 5 students. I was in high school just a year ago and it sure is the salt-nic that everyone is using. When freebase nicotine was all that was around, vaping was much less prevalent. The claim of kids getting hooked on vaping is mostly due to outrageously high nicotine levels. if the government capped nicotine at 20 or 24 mg we'd see a major decrease in underage vaping.
The increase in negative vaping-related media is due to black-market thc carts and Juul pods, and salt nicotine.
Nicotine's bad reputation from cigarettes makes people have a preconceived notion about vaping being harmful. However, it was never a big deal to society until people started dying (bad thc carts) and their kids were hooked on vaping (50 nic).
Chantix is poison, just like Wellbutrin. Tried both, and they altered my thought process dramatically. NRTs do not work very well, which is why most people can’t quit. Vaping may not be 100% safe, but it is safer and more effective then the alternatives. I’m proof of this, haven’t had a cigarette in over 6 years… thanks to vaping. And, I feel better too, with more lung capacity and more energy. Vaping works as a smoking cessation product, period.
The false information being spread pissed me off so much. Just bias and fear being spread. The US needs to figure out how to embrace change, especially when it could save and extend millions of lives.
Also they have exactly zero evidence that vaping is as bad as they say it is and tons of evidence that they are wrong and that it does help smokers!!!!!!! I swear everything they say on this is just made up by media!
5 years no cigarettes for me because of vaping.I am disgusted at smell of cigarettes now and would not go back.These organizations arguments are loosely put together and lacking solid reputable evidence while ignoring what’s in front of them.My question is what the point they are trying make one second it’s vaping is harmful and than they switch to youth vaping
Listen DOTTED HEAD!! i QUIT smoking with vape, NOT going to any blood sucker doctors like YOU or using any drugs that NEVER WORKED but getting the greedy ingrates government even richer!!
I smoked for 10 years I started at 15 years old and tried many things to quit but never could until I started vaping I quit in a day and no longer have chest pains and I can finnaly breath better and not just that but the money I save is substantial and the fact that I'm now on a 3 when I started I was using level 12 nicotine
LIARS!

If something will be illegal what'll people do? Of course do it illegal because that's fun! They will make it worse.
so that is the problem pill sales are going down

Most shocking is that "doctors" complete 70's fashion look 😀

The rent a doc, Claimed there are hundreds of toxins In Vapes. What toxins? Where is the proof? Where are the lab reports detailing these “toxins”?

As always you are on point. I don’t get it from the media amd there so called experts… What is the reason behind; only the sensational , or more?
Just heard a report that the Ontario government is considering a flavour ban following the Nova Scotia ban today. Curious on your thoughts @Dashvapes

Honestly this makes me fucking sick
These news people have probably never even smoked or vaped in there lives
Kids start vaping because they themselves have had cigarretes. Some do because it was trending.
This is SO hard to watch. Watching them spout straight out lies and bullshit drives me crazy. I can't stand it.
