Trump administration readies ban on flavored e-cigarettes amid outbreak of vaping-related deaths

Wonder if he's going after quarter pounder with cheese next.

Did you read the article in the first post? Its not just about Pods, its about ALL flavored Vape products.

I think he should go after Kombucha, hard selzer, anything labeled as "umami" and all the other things that the soyboys will have a fit over.

we can start with fucking man buns (twat knots)

Big tobacco not liking the loss of customers n profits so sabotage The Vape liquid?

GenX chick here, I wholeheartedly agree!

They better leave the Twinkies alone. We already dodged one catastrophe.

I have. My boss who is a huge Republican quit smoking by vaping. Guess what asshat? He had high blood pressure and health issues and now his blood pressure is normal. Thanks to vaping and quitting smoking. My 72 year old mother in law did the same and she is as far from libtard as you can get.

Not my kombucha. Knives out!

A 6th person has died from a vaping-related lung illness, this time in Kansas

Doug Stanglin, USA TODAYPublished 8:25 a.m. ET Sept. 11, 2019 | Updated 3:04 p.m. ET Sept. 11, 2019

A 50-year-old Kansan became the sixth person in the USA to die of a vaping-related lung illness, an outbreak that has ramped up health concerns nationwide and prompted President Donald Trump to call for a ban on thousands of e-cigarette flavors Wednesday.

Five previous vaping-related deaths were confirmed in California, Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota and Oregon. After the Kansas fatality, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention tallied six deaths and more than 450 possible cases of severe lung injury in 33 states and one jurisdiction.

Trump held a policy discussion on vaping Wednesday and said afterward that he will seek to ban the sale of non-tobacco-flavored products in an effort to get young people to give up e-cigarettes.

All anyone really needs to know is if Sophie Turner is okay.

That's a facial, right?

And? If Trump actually gave a shit he would ban regular cigarettes. But he won't, since this whole thing is a ploy orchestrated by the tobacco industry.

I'll stick to zig zags.

Are e cigs and liquids made in China?

this is the dumbest thing I've ever heard

My question is: why is this only happening in US.
Currently zero cases in Europe... (and lets hope it stays that way)

What baffles me is that no brands, type of liquids, zero information is mentioned in any news outlet. I mean: 450 cases, there must be somewhere a common ground in the type of liquid they were using, the brand, etc... I refuse to believe that no info at all is available.

Guess what? A few stupid vape juice manufacturers kill people and severely fuck up 450 more, and the entire vape juice industry suffers.

If they can trace back to the manufacturers, what will they, say, "Hey man, I didn't know. I'm just mixing what taste good and sells. I didn't like, you know, test it to see if it was safe."

Nicotine is a drug. Christians don't use drugs. Trump's being guided by God here.

weak ass... that simple.

There are millions of people who've quit cold turkey.

I Guess we can establish that they're weaker than every single one of them for starters.

Soy.. nothing but soy

You know who else banned flavored tobacco products? OBAMA

Vaping 911

e Reichstag

Wow! Thank you

Seems so easy to take away something everyone legally enjoys, because a few bad apples. Cigarettes kill 30,000 people a year. But we are not banning that are we...?

^has a brian

Nor guns.

Who here is surprised vaping is actually just as stupid, or even more stupid, than smoking?

And green from Bad Pattern. ;)

Thank you. Unfortunately, our generation is going to have to clean up this mess - that is, if it can be done at all. I’m starting to seriously want to Balkanize and split off into a legal conservative nation of our own. No leftists or Trumpites allowed - lol

NOW it starts to make sense. Thank you to the media for scaring my kids (as I do vape myself). Both of my kids have been begging me to stop as they didn't want me to die. F* bastards. Media again prefers publishing clickbait articles that sell instead of telling what is really going on.
