    Default E cigarette ban in New York.

    Regular cigarettes were banned because if the second hand smoke risk. Other than e cigarette smokers usually look like douches, what is the motivation? They have almost no smell, and no real second hand risk. Is it just another jab at controlling the masses?

    Who else is going to protect the people from themselves? i.e. nicotine addiction, obesity, etc.

    You fear what you don't know I suppose. I smoked for almost 10 years and did my best to avoid other people when I was smoking so I've carried that over to my ecig use but I can stand next to you and use my ecig and you'd never know.

    That's what I'm getting at. I find some perfumes far more objectionable. They are way friendly to non-smokers. What's to complain about. Land of the free.

    Kind of hard to say that for sure. They don't even know what the first hand risks are yet from inhaling those chemicals. Could find out those things are worse for you than cigarettes and everyone will start smoking again to get off the electronic ones.

    Many years ago I got into an argument with a peta type ... she was insistent that fur was murder and needed to be banned. I asked her about fake fur, she said it too needed to be banned because it made people think real fur might be ok.

    I believe this is actually the logic of e-cig bans.

    Inside every liberal is a totalitarian trying to get out.
    Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".
