There have been many allegations that e cigarettes are
causing rampant abuse to our minors because they are so easy to get online and
also they are so enticing because of their many flavors that come accompanied
with e cigarettes. I say that is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard;
for anyone that has ever used an online shopping portal. They will know that it
is near impossible for a minor to access those places because they need you to
have either a debit card or a credit card for facilitating the payment. When
was the last time that a bank issued such banking privileges to a minor?
In fact it is far easier for a minor to go and buy an e cig
at those retail outlets rather than go and order online. Those that are crying
out for the banning of online sales of e cigarettes are ignorant or in my view
they are unaware to the fact that there are already safe guards that exist to
prevent minors from running havoc at online shopping portals that offer e
cigarettes and other related material like disposable electronic cigarettes.
Also they seem to have no idea that at most e cigarettes shopping sites there
are already checks that are made to ensure that they only sell to consenting
adults only.
The reason why most people and my wife concluded is that
they hate the smoke. It is too smelly and quite problematic. As a result the
reason why manufacturer of premium e
cigarettes have got flavors is twofold. To allow smokers to be able to
enjoy the taste of the e cig be it banana, coffee, or candy and the second
reason is to ensure that those around and near the smoker will be able to the
same fragrance. What this means is that I my case for example; I vape a banana
e cig because I like them, this means that the taste will not be tobacco but
rather banana, and the vapor I breathe out is also banana. Sort of like an air
freshener.
So please congress, research first.
