Some good reads on the vaping scene in USA & what we could potentially face
http://vapeaboutit.com/have-we-caused-our-own-downfall/My 2nd month vaping & some observation & comments about vaping in Malaysia. (Some have been mentioned before)
There is almost no legislation about vaping (sale of devices, eliquids etc) currently & if we want it to remain so, all vapers (sellers & users) should self regulate.
(Sellers) - don't sell to minors, dont sell devices (especially high powered mods) without advising the user on the importance of safety, don't sell products (especially liquids) that uses well known brand names of non-vaping products, don't encourage or sponsor cloud chasing competition (as you'll read in an article on the above website)
On the last part, yes the vapour produced from vaping is harmless, you & I know that, but others don't.
(Users) - don't bring minors along to vape shop, learn about usage safety, don't "glorify" vaping just like you don't glorify smoking, don't vape at areas designated as "non-smoking". We know it's not fair but again, others don't know.
A bit more on cloud chasing. Yeah, I do get the pleasure one get from blowing out huge vapours. But do it in closed area out of the general public view. This is a form of glorification. Smokers don't have such competition so why should we? Don't give ammunition to the authorities to make vaping difficult for us in the future. We don't want this industry to be driven underground.
May I add a few pointers here.
I notice our local reseller like to use name of know brand of drinks and the labeling are very flashy, and what if the bottle does not come with child safety. This is just waiting something to happen. If this happen government will use this as a excuse to ban vaping.
