2. The Repugs' usual line when something is banned,

like junk food for school lunches, especially by, say Obama, is "Why not let people decide for themselves?"

3. While smoking related deaths per year 480,000

4. This should give the anti-vaping community pause.

Because Trump is ALWAYS wrong. Maybe this an opportunity to consider the harm-reduction benefits of vaping, and why there may be evil forces interested in destroying alternatives to tobacco.

5. It won't.

And when smoking rates start going up they'll scratch thier heads in bewilderment as to how that could be.

6. I am cigarette and nicotine free thanks to vaping.

I've tried everything else in the past. Only using a vape and gradually reducing the nicotine in the juice was successful in getting me off cigarettes and now I don't even vape anymore.

7. Same for me. It's likely vaping saved my life. nt
