5 minutes of “research” is enough to show anybody that big tobacco has no hand in e-cigarettes.

Even if e-cigarettes are “dangerous” . . i live in AMERICA, and if i can CHOOSE to willingly smoke cigarettes which is well known to KILL 400,000…400,000…400,000 a year as a DIRECT result. . . i can sure as hell choose to use an electric cigarette.

You must have a certified Smoke Attendant handle your cigarette while you smoke it.

With wonderful people like Sen. Bob Gordon and Sen. Joseph Vitale running this country, we have no reason to worry, right?

““This is yet another victory for public health,” said Gordon (D-Bergen). “No matter how manufacturers attempt to market these devices, they are still cigarettes. In many ways, they may be more dangerous than traditional cigarettes because of their lack of oversight or any conclusive studies into their health effects.””

Please tell me this is a joke. I never knew so ill informed people were put in such a place of power.

If they think e-cigs are even remotely dangerous, then test them, and then learn what the rest of us already know.

I’m sick and tired of nanny-state legislature without even the slightest amount of study being performed on the products (or activities) being banned.

The e-cig is the first device that has allowed me to quit without harming anyone, including myself. If I couldn’t use these to help me quit my addiction (I’ve already dropped my e-cigarette use and nicotine content considerably since I swapped from real cigarettes), then I’d sue the idiots that banned my use of it.

I cannot believe that there are people making laws on things they obviously know nothing about! Maybe it is the opposite and their PAC money cronies are feeding them these lines so they look as if they are fighting the good fight!

Maybe they just parrot remarks like so many people ‘I was just following orders.” all the while trying to bring death to millions by forcing them to go back to big tobacco’s cradle and use combustible cigarettes. What are you people thinking?

The FDA’s claims are nowhere rooted in fact according to today’s US Court ruling!

Propylne glycol, a known irritant? Ever hear of a song ‘Smoke gets in your eyes?” it HURTS!!! I would be more irritated by a walking ashtray, walking through plumes of combustible smoke or even strong perfume than by an odorless water vapor. There is no measurable nicotine or PG on the exhale. Afraid that people with three inches of tar coating their lungs are gonna be hurt by a little theater fog?

You guys says you are doing your best for the public health while contributing to the deaths of your constituents by walking lockstep with unfounded claims. What government!!!!

Meanwhile, the passage of this law in New Jersey is a clear victory for the manufacturers of tobacco cigarettes. Senators Gordon and Vitale deserve the tobacco industry’s “Prevention of Smoking Cessation” award for their efforts.

Now the tobacco companies can rest a little easier because more New Jersey smokers will be sticking with their cancer sticks. Had smokers been able to see e-cigarette users inside, snug and warm, they might have been tempted to switch.

Sooner or later, though, the word will get out that those who switch to inhaling vaporized nicotine are experiencing improved lung function and lower blood pressure and cholesterol. Then how will Senators Gordon and Vitale explain themselves to those who continued smoking thanks to this law and developed lung disease, cardiovascular disease, or cancer?
