    I don't care.
    Some things aren't worth the cost.

    The epidemic of idiotic individuals engaging in dangerous behavior for their own amusement and pleasure, despite having every reason to know that doing such could potentially kill them, or otherwise make them wish that they were dead.

    What epidemic, specifically, are you talking about? Who is being harmed, and what, specifically, is harming them?

    That worked so well with alcohol and tobacco, didn't it?

    I voted it should be left alone. I'm just saying nicotine has no benefits and we should not develop another "cool" way to deliver it

    What if that "cool" way to deliver it is a safe alternative to a very harmful way to deliver it? Should it still not be developed?

    In that case, I suppose so, but what if it's not being delivered at all, why take it up?

    I thought it would be nice because one of the main things I had missed when I gave up smoking was the smoke. but you're right, it's not the same. And even without nicotine, I can't see how inhaling a fragrance is good for your lungs or at all satisfying. If I want a strawberry I'll just eat one.

    Arrest the illegal THC distributors. The harm isn't coming from vaping nicotine.

    Common mistake made by the confused and misinformed. Antifreeze is ethylene glycol.
    Propylene glycol is a completely different substance. It's "fog juice", and you can breathe it in at a rock concert and a Halloween party, and you can literally drink the stuff with no ill effects.

    there are benefits and risks in many things, even Nicotine

    e-cigs were designed to be a safer way to get nicotine and help some quit smoking, just like the gums and lozenges

    that is not what is in e-cigs, the stuff in e-cigs is the stuff used in fog machines at childrens theme parks and amusement parks, and even used in IV's in the medical field

    what you're showing there is what is used in your car, totally different
