And?
Vaping has been falsely sold as safer than traditional tobacco.
It does get rid of carbon inhalation, but it replaces it with chemical inhalation. If you are boiling chemicals you are not making your lungs free from damage.

I do agree that deceptive advertising as "these are a safe alternative" type stuff should be banned. But how are these more of a health risk than cigarettes? In Texas you need to be 21 to buy cigarettes or e-cigs. Why is this not a sufficient restriction if the known affects are divulged?
They are selling nicotine - a known poison. It is mixed with unknown chemicals - and add candy flavorings to it.
Reason? To make addicts out of kids.
You don't see a problem, huh?
Are they also banning menthol cigarettes and flavoured cigars?

So 480,000 Americans dying a year - directly related to tobacco products is an acceptable number - to ensure people's rights to be addicted to a product with no redeeming qualities?
Yup. What an adult puts into their own body is their own bloody business.
