Not to mention it looks like your puffing on a Peter when you vape with half the vaping things out there.

This millennial, they cant even smoke the way was intended.

Lots of kids here are doing it. My youngest son who is only 14 says the bathrooms are filled with kids sharing that garbage.... I was asked the other day by a cute young girl if I could buy her some vape. I told her no way was I getting involved she said I will pay to do it.. Makes you wonder what kind of person ends up supplying them to make a few bucks...

How ironic that the same political group that is pushing to do away with tobacco products is also demanding their right to legalize cannabis
Same group may(probably) now pursue doing away with vaping and still demand legalizing cannabis
Hypocrites

 

[Sahara]

Couple of points.
They totally legalized pot here in Canada. Even though I’m an old, ex pothead, I was totally opposed. Pot does in fact make you stupid. That being said, it has not ruined, or even affected my life in any way. So I basically don’t care.
Vaping, however, takes people that were only stupid and makes them deathly sick. As much as stupid people annoy me they don’t deserve to die.

Pot??? I am actually on the fence on this one. I don't care and yes I do on occasion. Tobacco and Vaping? Just FOOKING bad is all I can say. I smoked Tobacco for 44 years and now been smoke free for 15 years. Hate it actually and did so even when I was smoking. Vaping is a million times worse. Ever hear of "Bubble Lung?" Worse than COPD which I now suffer from because of my Tobacco use. Now these stupid people that Vape are coming down with horrible complications because of it. Where is the rational to this insane usage and habit? My Life, My Body, Blah, Blah, Blah. Its all BS. My only advise here, and I think I am entitled to share that because of what I now know, is to give all the **** up. Get off the Coffin Nails, do not substitute on very bad habit for another. There are no reasons not to and those that continually deny themslves, are really not realistic and lacking in any self control. Optimum word here? QUIT!!! Rant is now off and carry on...cr8crshr/Bill

Pot does in fact make some people stupid.

fixed

 

[Cranky]

It's my body, my life, my choice......I usually reply to that with "you're stupid and if you fix that, everything else will come together and make your life better" but they just po po off. I tell my kids research research research and then make your decision. So far they are still much smarter than me.....in their mind.

like others have said here

just replacing one really bad habit
with another form of Nicotine induction
just another way to sell tobacco products

they even advertise it on TV
some even try to say it's safer

don't buy into that BS

only a matter of time before, this **** started to happen

young people are stupid, just as much as they were in my generation
they will do something stupid, thinking it's their body & it doesn't matter
WRONG !!

I was a casual smoker maybe a pack every couple days,
for about 15 years
& I chewed tobacco, a can a day before that in HS & college too
I know all too well what it's like to quit nicotine of any type
(over 20 years ago now)
& I feel so damn much better, even at my age

not doing any of that tobacco/nicotine co. bull ****, at all

So, vaping is harmful? Inhaling something other than breathable air/oxygen is harmful to your lungs? Along those same lines, this just in! Laying on train tracks in front of a train may be harmful to your health!

I love how the media acts like this is some kind of revelation. We've known for years that breathing crap not intended to breathed is harmful to your lungs. Coal dust, glass dust, smoke of any kind, you name it, it's common sense. I know what you're going to say - common sense is out the window. Yes, you are right.

What's next, poking your eye with a sharp stick may lead to vision problems?

 

[slimt]

Not for me. Im have enough of a issue trying to quit the smoking thing. That stuff is a crutch for a quick death for the youth that dont understand the consequences

The moisture vapours from that will do you in quick .

 

[khryslerkid]

If you were just "vaping" with plain water you're subjecting your lungs to infections. So add the chemicals and irritants

 

[dart4forte]

Talked to my 18yo GD yesterday. She’s kinda out on her own. She vapes. Shared my concerns, she knows the risks. She said she will quit down the road

Budnicks with your OK, I'd like to piggy back on your comments. I found this this morning and after reading your assessment and opinion, you are spot on. Thanks in advance...cr8crshr/Bill

Come on, this is no different then a lot of us here hangin out at the liquor store hoping someone will cop you a 6 pack when you were underage! I know I did this, so did many others!

It's my body, my life, my choice....

I feel the same way about the flu shot, but that's a different subject.

I guess times have changed and I don't need to be involved with getting minors anything that is not legal for them to have. I have to much to lose and don't want to contribute to the decline of our youth as I have kids myself.

 

[Sahara]

I did many bad, illegal, and immoral things as a young person. That doesn’t make it right.

 

[Slap Stick]

Who would have thought breathing water would be harmful to your lungs?
I'm shocked!

Has anyone noticed people who vape suck on those things like there is no tomorrow and they can't get enough of the stuff?
I have never seen people smoke cigarettes like that.
And it seems cigarettes take decades to show any problem as where vaping is is causing problems very quickly.
