Good

The crazy thing is, if a federal law was passed that e cigs were only sold in one flavor - dogshit, people would still buy them. Making them in candy flavors is about as obvious as it can be that they are aimed at kids.

What are they doing to stop teen smoking? Any bans?

yeah, vaping is hurting cigarette sales.

Teens aren’t vaping nicotine they’re vaping weed. Which don’t come in those remade e-cigs. They add it to those big vaporizers you get at the head shops

This will only increase cigarette use.

Should do the same with cigarettes too while they're at it

is this funded by big tobacco lmao

That photo looks like a marijuana vaporizer

Of course, because this is a national crisis. Totes not a waste of time/money.

Sucks to be juu

The restrictions are aimed mainly at reducing smoking in kids: About half of teens who smoke cigarettes choose menthols, and flavored e-cigarettes have been blamed for a recent increase in teen vaping rates.

Secret Service cracks down on credit card skimming at gas pumpsThe agency recovers about 20 to 30 skimmers a week, with the average skimmer having information from about 80 cards on it, according to one agent. Can someone please explain, how with all the video surveillance today, criminals are able to place skimmers on gas pumps nationwide without being caught on camera? Why is the Secret Service doing this and not local police officers? Doesn't make sense. Need to find a solution to this problem!!!
