Nicotine is harmful and no one, especially kids should be using it. Maybe you don’t know what nicotine does to the human body. If you know how it works on insects, it does the same thing to humans, especially when it’s consumed over decades. Now that it’s available in vape form, it’s even easier and way more likely to use even more and do more harm.

As for the flavors and colors. You need to educate yourself on the history of marketing tobacco and alcohol. These companies have never been marketing to adults with the candy flavors and the unicorn colors. You may not be old enough to remember wine coolers but those of us who do, remember that adults rarely drank them. Same goes for these vapes.
For the record. Afaik, thc does not have any of the same negative side effects as nicotine. You’ll live longer and healthier if you vape the “real” stuff or even the delta 8, 9,10, etc vs nicotine.
Not saying that the state should be outlawing it. Simply offering some real info and a counter to your claims of it being fun. It may be “fun” now but not so fun decades or sooner down the road when you have dementia, heart problems, etc.
Oh and I did block you because your only argument based on the comment I replied to would be, (fuck you, because, reasons). Homey don’t have time for that.
Every single non-smoker born between 1800-1877 is now dead. Every single smoker born in the same period got to enjoy nicotine with zero increase in “being dead right now”.
Nicotine has been shown to improve attention, learning, and memory in dementia patients.
I also never said kids should use it, I said “Think of the children!” should not justify preventing adults from consuming any flavor or carrying any colours they wish.
I also question how far you would take legislating away potential dangers were you dictator of the world. Shall we prohibit dancing due to the harm to causes knee joints?
