The underclass is intent on polluting themselves. Weird and screwed up is the norm now. No way to stop it.

You know that when they came out that “weed” had to be on the to do list.

I’ve used one to transition away from cigarettes, as has been said it seems to be the CBD oils that are causing the problems.

How does this make me “underclass”

pretty low numbers IMHO.

OTOH who ever could think that vaping was better than smoking and if so, how much better....

Might be different where you live, but I see far fewer people vaping now than even a few years ago.Also, how many kids are vaping now compared to how many were smoking 40-50 years ago? This is not some sort of new development in human behavior.

They are referring to the synthetic version of E (acetate)..not the natural E.

the syn. is a petrochemical derived Molecular compound : 3,4-Dihydro-2,5,7,8-tetramethyl-2-(4,8,12-trimethyltridecyl)-2H-1-benzopyran-6-ol

Natural E is a single stereoisomer.
Synthetic E is a mixture of eight stereoisomers,( only one of which is the same as natural E )

I don't think the maker intended them for use with Marijuana oils etc. but someone got that bright idea, and now Mr. Darwin has some work to do.


The process of producing an extract requires solvents (Butane or Hexane) of which residuals can remain.
then there are other substances like oil thinning carrier agents/compounds (Propylene Glycol and Polyethylene Glycol.)
that help burn the oil more effficiently.
Carrier agents contain carcinogens which when subject to high temperatures have potential to become more sinister.
(known to produce carcinogens including acetaldehyde and formaldehyde)

Vap flavors.

Several common flavoring agents, (diacetyl, acetoin, and 2,3-pentanedione) have been linked to severe respiratory diseases;
https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/news/p...chemicals-linked-to-respiratory-disease/

One study found diacetyl can cause severe lung disease;
https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/topics/flavorings/exposure.html

Diacetyl found in over 75% of vape liquids tested;

I have never been able to understand sucking on one of those stainless steel gizmos. If I had my own dictionary the first words I would delete would be Vape and Vaping watching men do that is pretty friggin sad IMO.

Good luck and shoot straight y'all

Druggies paying the consequences of indulging in their addiction in what they thought was a new and different way. The vapers I see in my area don't appear to be the sharpest pencils in the box.

I think the idea is to get a hit of nicotine without setting anything on fire or even using tobacco......in theory getting away from some of the carcinogens involved in burning pesticide laden tobacco and inhaling its smoke.

Praise the Lord; I never would have been able to figure it all out if they hadn’t banned it.

It’s toxic maternalism that is our culture’s problem.

It appears as if the above guys do have things figured out! Congrats, guys.

When we have a culture of young dumbasses willing to kill themselves with Tide Pods, illegal vape materials, and posting videos of lighting themselves on fire, it's not too hard to get to the root cause of such deaths.


Blaming "vaping" is the same as blaming the revolver when some dumbass uses one to lose at Russian Roulette.

Old age does funny things to a person. I thought it was cool to smoke cigarettes once upon a time, and now I realize it was pretty stupid. I see vaping the same way.....it's pretty stupid to mix up a bunch of chemicals and put them into your lungs.

But, I do not go along with Big Brother telling me what I can do with my body, and what I can't. If I choose to ruin what God gave me by overeating, overdrinking, smoking, using illegal drugs, vaping, and living an unhealthy lifestyle, it should be my right to do so.........however, it should also be the right of the medical community and the taxpayers to not have to be responsible for it.

There's a lot to that, James.

More and more, the govt doesn't trust it's subjects (citizens) with "freedom".

Vaping is just a different nicotine delivery system and once a nicotine user is hooked, he/she is likely to be a customer for life. Vaping may be a safer delivery system than smoking, but the potential risk are not well known.

The flavored vaping liquids seem to be aimed at minors, most of whom aren't mature enough to make an informed decision. Same as with flavored dip, lower nicotine levels in the flavored styles gets the young user hooked and they move on to styles with higher nicotine levels as their cravings grow. When I was a kid, a lot of other kids started smoking Taryton brand cigarettes and as their nicotine demand went up they moved on to Camels, Marlboros, and Winstons.

The current theory is oily vapor causing a lipoid pneumonia, which can prove fatal.

Not so harmless....
