San Francisco is expected to become the first U.S. city to ban e-cigarettes this week, a move that will likely pit the city against one of its fastest-growing startups, Juul Labs

San Francisco is expected to become the first city in the U.S. to ban e-cigarettes this week, a move that will likely pit the city against one of its fastest-growing startups: Juul Labs Inc.

The San Francisco Board of Supervisors will hold a final vote on the ordinance, which bans the sale, distribution and manufacturing of e-cigarettes, on Tuesday. The measure will then need to be signed by the mayor, London Breed.

You can shoot up openly on the streets, with provided needles, but don't you dare vape.

Did they ban cigarettes as well

But if it marijuana, why but of course, feel free to light up

We can also take a lesson from this.

GOOD IDEA E-CIGARETTES ARE B-CIGARETTES. B FOR BAD

CareersatBAT BATPress Vaping had a short lived experience....

But dope, heroine, crack & coke is fine 🤔

How do people from California determine when “bodily autonomy” is even remotely relevant when determining what should be legal or not?

Clean up the used needles on the streets first

Selling and vapor both?

And SF hands out needles to drug addicts.

E-cigarettes should be sold only in pharmacies and with prescription for those who seriously wanna quit smoking, like all “controlled medicine”.

Wondering why ? Yes understand smoke particulates are bad for sensitive lung tissue, but if they're allowing marijuana to be smoked & (maybe) vaped, what's the difference ? Smoke is smoke, whether from cigarettes, vaping, pollution, or marijuana & if one's bad, then all are.

But they’ll allow pot and heroin.

E cigs stupidest product ever lauched. The old hash under glass trick.

Free needles for heroin, but no tools to quit smoking....

GAVIN PELOSI DESTROY S.F.! THEIR WORKING ON LA/OC NOW! STOP CORRUPT DEMOCRATS! STOP CORRUPT SOCIALIST! KAG MAGA2020 WALKAWAY VOTEDEMOUT

There is nothing more stupid than these e cigarettes...I mean really, we just convinced people not to smoke cigarettes and now we are selling them e cigarettes...how stupid are we?

Meanwhile on the streets of Sf .....

Still want that 5G, Donald?

The liberals are incapable of governing

Oh and yes, I understand the differences between smoking and vaping. I do neither but I am an American and we all deserve rights. One day its vaping. The next day? Who knows. Something you consider your own personal right and that of others will be in question. What then?

But all joking aside: were the people of San Francisco able to vote this in or was this just another prime example of rights being revoked. I don't smoke but I believe that if restrictions in a U.S. City are to be adopted it should first find a spot on a ballot. Then a vote taken

Why?

Cigarettes are sweet. But products that help you quit need to be banned. So woke.

Kind of hypocritical for the Frisco fools. They pretty much allow illegal drug use to occur on the city streets but get bent of E-Cigarettes. What a bunch of tools

They should have banned homelessness!

The “water vapor” that comes off thos things gives a faster asthma attack than a regular cigarette. I don’t know what the hell is in that stuff but it’s sick.

Really. Okay, I won't be able to use an e-cigarette in San Fran but can I set up a stage and quote stories from the bible? I believe one in particular comes to mind.

While the homeless shoot up and crap on the streets.

They couldn't smell their own farts anymore. They were offended that their city was starting to smell like a bake-off instead of farts and the homeless. SmugAlert

vapes and ecigs are gateway devices for illegal drugs; their flavors attract teenagers who are the must vulnerable consumer; they cause mood swings; brain & lung damage in young adults AND are huge publichealth concern. Check out the list of accidents ANR_Smokefree.

How very “progressive” of them. Can’t vape, but feel free to take a shit in the middle of the street and then grab your rig and shoot up some heroin. Great job, Cali!! 🙄💩💉

W A I T ! ! Do the homeless vape?! If so, this policy could harm their livelihood and civil rights!! How thoughtless and heartless!!

Needles for hypes are a go ahead though...

I really, really dislike e-cigarettes, but good Lord people-you allow the slaughter of unborn children, enable addicts to shoot up in public, and spend MILLIONS each year paying people to clean up human feces in the streets. What a nasty-ass place!

CanadaPotstocks Thank you for keeping our children safe from the dangers of mist, condensation and vapor!

This will solve the homeless and shitting on the street problem

The hipster horde will retreat to the other side of the bay.

San Francisco is basically it’s own fascist country

Decent people of San Francisco, if you share our values and wish to escape, you will be welcome here in America.

Pretty sure Somerville, MA already did this.

Glad I don't live there they ban e cigarette how about shitty in the streets

But pot is legal? What about pot e cigarettes?

This coming right after they apparently banned toilets.

Don’t think for a second that big tobacco isn’t behind getting rid of e-cigs. I hate e-cigs, but I would rather see them then dirty butts everywhere.

That is the wise move

Genius.

Juul must be crazy

E-cigarettes are unbelievably vulgar. They puff away in clouds of “e-smoke” around London and it’s awful. I’d rather people smoked real pipes or cigars.

The city with more homeless crapping in the streets should be trusted to anything?

Lol

But using heroin on the sidewalk and subway is legal.

先给301亿rmb啊

Good news, more people will begin to use lighters again, thereby reducing the threat of being attacked by SAG terror soldiers who are using Nitrous Oxide/Versed airborne gas as a weapon for capturing citizens and replacing them with impostors.

Oh sfgov , your priories are so, so off. San Francisco is literally a complete dump, and only getting worse by the day.

what's next, Prohibition?

They need to ban pooping in the streets also...

How about you ban crackheads?

Ban harm reduction. Mkay.
