I happen to be an e-smoker, so I watched this entire video, and the only thing worse than the fuzzy and awful video quality was the way the New York state senate seems to work!
There was not a singe legislator that voted against Bill S7324 so now they have removed the peoples right to buy or sell them anywhere in the state of New York. Nice. Please tell me if you believe there wasn’t big tobacco money behind this push to “save the children”!
Some of people speaking in the video do not even know what an electronic cigarette is, and NONE of them challenged whether what this one woman was claiming was true or untrue.
Literally no investigation of any sort was done, and instead of going after the kiosks, store or businesses that may have been violating the law by selling to minors, they have simply made them illegal.
And never mind the electric cigarette manufacturers STRONGLY claim that they are NOT “stop smoking” aids, and that they should not be sold to minors, they’ve just outlawed their sale instead.
Never mind that the womans claim of “… vaporise packets of an UNDETERMINED AMOUNT OF NICOTINE” is pure fantasy. Every? time I buy nicotine cartridges or nicotine refill liquid I can select anywhere between 0mg to 30mg of nicotine.
Never mind that millions of people around the world are successfully replacing burning smoke into their lungs with these devices, and claiming to be happier for it.
HEY New York voters, you may not particularly care about them taking away someones right to buy an e-cig, but you might be interested sort of representation you have in your state. What’s going to be taken away next?
