So, did anyone expect anything else? Do some think, we are all so stupid that we would say, ok and go buy a pack of smokes . In fact, it might encourage smokers to switch to vaping. Big tobacco and big pharma will fight it but they know its here to stay.

No surprises here. If I be a crook for going to the black market to get my vape, then a crook be I.

I would absolutely buy ecigs from out of the back of a van parked in an alley between gang territories if i had to. Not that i'd want to.

As I said, if vaping makes me a crook, then a crook be I.

I may make that my slogan.

I`ve been anticipating doing exactly this since the regulations were even mentioned.

If there`s a will, there`s always a way ;)

I've got a toilet paper tube, a broken flashlight and a bag of D cells, a length of coat hanger, some tin foil, and a bunch of lint i found in back of the dryer. I made some kind of liquid out of soy milk, old motor oil, some Windex, one or two squirts of Pledge, a teaspoonful of sriracha, and some of that striped gum i forgot i bought six years ago.

I am ready to go.

YO LETS DO THIS, COPS

I can see it now.
A guy that looks like Lil Wayne standing on a street corner in the worst neighborhood in East Baltimore calling out: "Dope, Coke, Ejuice"

The heating element in a water heater can be torn open and it holds about 15ft of 22ga resistance wire.

Really tho, if you have a mech mod and a RBA then there really isn't much they can do stop us. The batteries can't be outlawed, the wire is used in so many applications that it can be regulated, and the liquid and even nicotine are available and can't be easily regulated.
I will never go back to cigs.

This post was found in an ancient ruin, probably left by aliens.

The sad thing is that as true as it may be, stuff like this article don't really help us imo. Ma and Pa kettle and the rest of John Q public already associate vaping with bad things. Even calling this forum the underground can have negative connotations in many people's minds.
Perceptions vs. reality is like Mike Tyson vs. Peewee herman, not a fair fight.

Actually articles like this may help our cause. If politicians learned anything from the war on drugs it's taxation beats filling the pockets of criminals.

I believe one of the best ways to hook kids is to ban something. They are planning to ban and are saying its for the kids... no comprende! I still can't believe how stupid this is. As Sen Burr said, we finally have the technology for harm reduction. And, they want to ban it?
