What their essentially doing is turning it back to an underground thing, which is very easy to do, you want to vape? It does not take a fucking scientist
that's the thing about this. if you can do math, and buy the components, you can make your own juice.
even jewgle will give you resources for making the stuff at home.
i think that's a pretty big risk to BT. but even worse, any company that wants to mix and sell juice, can. the equipment is easy enough to get. vaping is killing big tobacco, and they're having a hard time meeting all the settlement agreements now.

Exactly. What is it, 2-3 ingredients depending on how you blend it? Maybe a couple more if you want different flavors. It's been years since I vaped (and quit a decade long habit easily) so I need to figure out how this stuff is made again and push this anytime someone complains about this. Just make your own.

The only real evidence that we have that people are dropping dead is the word of the media.

Any time The Media, in perfect unison, like one big on/off switch, demands that we all get upset about something assume the opposite.
They don't care about harm reduction. Either do what they tell you to (not) do, or die.

you're right to trust your gut something is fucky

Mainstream news has been pretty forthcoming about the fact that the deaths were related to black market weed oil cartridges, not e-cigarettes. Only the FDA and certain corporations are jumping the gun on ecigs.

Except the headlines conflate the two every single time.

Yet ny banned flavored e-cig juice
[–] slwsnowman40 ago
Well, yea, aren't you thinking of the children? I'm sure they are just looking out for the children and not banning it because they haven't gotten their cut to leave them alonw. /s
[–] nonsense_guy ago
NY has been trying to pass that ban for years, the media blitz just gave them the manufactured consent to ram the bill through.
