    Breaking News: The FDA warned that teen use of e-cigarettes was an "epidemic." It gave Juul and other makers 60 days to prove they can keep them from minors.https://nyti.ms/2CMAPOb

        You cannot blame a company for the behavior of teenagers. You also fail to mention that teen smoking rates are plummeting in exchange. Take what you can get.

        Teen cigarette smoking rates are down because they're all using e-cigs, which are DEFINITELY targeted to kids. Let me know the last time you saw an e-cig advert in Times magazine or Vogue or Forbes. I'll wait. If anyone is going to be legally poisoning our kids, it will be FDA.

        I have never in my life seen an e-cig ad targeted at kids, ever. I've been vaping for 8 years. You're just pulling shit out of your ass.

        Are you serious? College kids are old enough to vape. Those ads are not targeted at children. You can also drop the f bombs and join modern civilization. If you think those ads are targeting children you need to recalibrate something or other in your headspace.

        Yes, college kids, who are 18+ years old. Often referred to as "adults" by people without an ax to grind.

        Tel that to the many people who had used a vaping device to quit decades of smoking cigarettes.

        Amen. Right here. They never know when to stop regulating. Were it not for e-cigarettes, I’d still be smoking.

        You haven’t been inside a high school recently every single kid has a juul literally every kid and I’m not exaggerating. The nurses office has Home Depot buckets of confiscated juuls and its almost just as bad in middle schools too

        In my experience, the overwhelming majority of vape shops are not selling to kids. It’s the kids older friends or parents buying for them. So the FDA’s possible solution is to ban flavors? I agree with a strict ban on marketing to teens, but the adult are ultimately accountable.

        I understand restricting use to adults but I’m sure adults use the flavors as well as kids and removing them from the market will push some non-smoking adults back into being smokers again.

        1/2 Honestly besides the physical craving of nicotine, there isn't any immediate threat from using it and it's nowhere near as bad as actual cigarettes. There are worse things teens could be doing (because some are). If they lose access to one thing, they will find another.

        2/2 Maybe instead of trying to "keep it away", lower the nicotine content per usage. I haven't seen any news yet of teens having severe negative effects or dying from ecigs yet. Rather they sit around doing this than drinking or illegal drugs.

        There are lower nicotine content. Dosages vary- the reason some are so high is to curb cigarette use and WEAN OFF OF NICOTINE. That is why dosages range as high as 18mg and as low as 0mg. Juul has 5 and 3 mg dosages. Over regulating e cigs does damage to smokers who want to quit

        That's odd...teens smoking cigarettes was never an "epidemic", but JUUL overtakes Big Tobacco profits and all of a sudden e-cigs are a threat? Hmm...
