Vaping companies are tricking our kids, as young as kindergartners and first graders, with ads and social media promoting flavored products. This is an obscene practice that we will not tolerate. We have to combat nicotine addiction and ensure the health of New Yorkers.pic.twitter.com/Bsv5qmbZ1g

  1) If your kindergartener is on social media, you’ve got bigger issues. 2) No one is trying to addict youth to adult products. #AdultsLikeFlavors 3) The youth “epidemic” does not exist. https://twitter.com/regwatchcanada/status/1234971893347676160?s=21 …https://twitter.com/RegWatchCanada/status/1234971893347676160 …

  It blows my mind that some people seriously believe vape companies are trying to get kindergarteners to use their products. This implies evil intentions among thousands of small companies on a global scale.

  Why are kindergarteners and first graders on the internet? Social media?

  Boy, you ZEALOTS just keep changing your narrative. First it was teens, then it was tweens, then "youth" was associated with ADULTS up to 35 years old (LOL), and now it's kids barely over toddler age? What's next? Toddlers? Embryos in the womb? Maybe changing to "old" people?

  How much money does a kindergartener have to spend that a big company w/ *expensive* ADULT products would want to target tiny kids instead of the adults w/ jobs? How does a KINDERGARTENER get a hold of adult products if their parents aren't buying it for them? THIS IS LUDICROUS!
