    Death by vaping.

    Heard a news report that a florida man was vaping and his vaping device blew up, shot though his head, caught house a blaze and he died. I dont vape or smoke, but that is a scary report. I have also heard it is a new thing to do for middle schoolers.

    I love all the vapors reasoning for vaping.

    The same companies that produced a product that was addictive, caused cancers, heart disease, and a numerous other health problems that lead to death, who spent millions on lobbying and BS science to convince the public that their product was safe is now selling a new product that they claim is safe. And the vapors are eating up all the same BS claims while sucking down addictive chemicals, while ignoring common sense.

    Better to vape than suck tar and other cancer causing stuff into your lungs, if you're addicted to nicotine.

    Is it ? no one seems to know for sure.

    I've seen studies both ways good & bad.

    I used an electronic cigarette for ~ 5 weeks to help me stop smoking, and none since then. I didn't really care if it was worse or not for such a short time, as long as it helped me get off the nicotine, which it did.

    All I know, is when you pull up to a stop light, you'd see smoke come out from a smokers car......but it it's a vaper's car, the clouds billow out like a thunder storm.

    Wet lung is now a potential concern with vaping as well...............no matter if the stuff in them is good or bad.

    Vaping- The only thing more irritating to the people around you than burning a tire.

    Teach a man to fish, he will complain that you stole his fishing spot.

    I think vaping was meant to be a short term solution to help people stop smoking. It wasn’t meant to replace cigarettes completely. I know people now who vape who never smoked and I can’t make sense out of it. They pretty much took out the smoke and concentrated the addictive part of the cigarette and call it “healthier.”

    People say vaping is safe because its just water vapor in your lungs, but the last time I checked moisture in your lungs is call pneumonia...

    None of it is good for you.
    I smoked for years, it is a stupid and expensive habit, ( when I started a pack was .25 out of a cigarette machine, $2.28 a carton at the PX). Years ago I was informed of something more dangerous than smoking cigarettes, smoke from diesel fumes, The particles are smaller and go deeper into your lungs.

    You sure about that ?

    "E-cigarettes are billed as producing “harmless water vapor,” but, strictly speaking, thevapor produced when users exhale is actually an aerosol that contains a mixture of nicotine, flavorings and other ingredients that can be toxic."

    The biggest e-cig detractors say at most, without any evidence, e-cigs could be 1/4 to 1/2 as dangerous as cigarettes.
    I don't smoke or vape, never have in my 57 years, but if I lost my mind and had to do one, I'd vape.
