URGENT!!!! FDA is going too far! {Please read}
Posted 10 years agoHey Guys:
The FDA is Threatening our right to use these products as responsible ADULTS.. For Vapes, Chicago has already banned any and all indoor e-cig and vape device stating that these devices cause second hand "smoke". Here the price of Cigarettes and ALL "Tobacco" labeled items are taxed at ridiculous rates so that we are FORCED by them for US to not be able to afford them. I smoke a pipe knowing full well the potential consequences and as an ADULT that is my right! No one has the right to force their views on others. But to force an agenda like this and call it regulation is ridiculous. vapes and e-cigs are water vapor NOT smoke. I know many of folks that were able to quit smoking because of vapes PLUS i know many of my friends that use vapes with ZERO nicotine in them.
Please read these and sign the petitions! This affects us all!
According to Halfwhell.com (http://http://halfwheel.com/fda):
On April 24, the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) announced proposed regulations for the premium cigar industry. The regulations—which would affect every cigar being sold today in varying degrees—would be the most substantial change to the premium cigar industry since the U.S. enacted an embargo on Cuba in 1962. There is a more than legitimate threat that the U.S. cigar market could begin to be dramatically reshaped as early as this fall due to regulations.
Thanks vapefurs for the following info:
As you all know, the various FDAs around Europe and USA are trying their hardest to take down vaping as we know it.
And chances are that they'll make it worse than the things we used to love before: Cigarettes.
You can read more in the articles below!
So do yourselves a favor and sign up for the petitions that I've gathered so far!

If yo are going to AC and are a Cigar smoker...
Posted 13 years agoa Message from &
Well Folks,
As it turns out a few moths ago I was talking with one of the members and asked to have a smoke at AC. So I asked a few other people for a little group smoke. As it turned out and idea popped up in my head. "Smoke Party" I am providing cigars, right? I'm also giving away PRIZES to. :D The more the merrier. So I got with some more members and see what they thought. The original idea was for all of us to go on top of the Convention center roof and smoke. I first got with the admins and consultants of AC on the subject. Sadly, we won;t be allowed to smoke on the roof b/c of some fuck-head meesing around and almost falling off the roof. >:/ We are however allowed to smoke outside the Westin away from the doors. This would be good, but I don;t know if there are any other options for a party. I am arriving at lunchtime on Thursday and will be leaving early Sunday for my flight back home. It's more likely to have the party on either Thursday or Friday evening. I will work with schedules. One thing is for sure. I don;t know if there's a bar in pittsburg who allows smoking. Either that or a lounge. As far as I know, I'll be making a few notes, phone calls, and texts to see who knows what. I've only been to AC once, b/c I know some people know much more areas than me. ^__^;;;
This is what I need everyone in the group to do:
1. Spread the word on the party.
2. Send some info regarding certain things that should be done or acceptable places to go.
This will be my last con for a good while guys. I hope you all will join the party and make it a memorable one too. <:3
Just let me know.
That is all.
