        Why the heck would anyone give up any vaping devices right before the FDA rolls out impossible PMTA rules? I am STOCKPILING all things vape to ensure I can weather any imminent vapeapocalypse without going back to deadly cigarettes.

        Hmm, guess this doesn’t apply to cigarette butts... b/c after 10 years of smoking a pack/day, I could’ve returned roughly 75,000 🚬 butts! I’ll keep my #vape products, (or else that number would’ve been over 100k by now). Thanks for encouraging people to keep smoking. Great work!

        Stop by your local vape shop I'm sure they would take the vaped and give them to someone in need.

        That is not a bad idea! Help people quit tobacco for a safer alternative! DOCTORS have said that vaping is 95% safer than tobacco! This means safer than the Iqos, too.

        Why on God's green earth would I turn in my vape stuff? It is not illegal for me to have, and frankly, I do not trust you, the FDA or the CDC. You all have not provided any real evidence to any dangers of vaping, other than nicotine.

        And yet nicotine is no more addictive/dangerous than sugar or caffeine #WeVapeWeVote

        What he really means is, after you drop off your #vape supplies, go to your local gas station & pick up a pack of #cigarettes bc we need #msabloodmoney & we need it now. #wevapewevote #exsmoker #BigTobacco #Corruptionpic.twitter.com/aIAAhjiMu6
