    Sometimes it works out great (banning guns in Australia for most people), other times it’s terrible (banning alcohol in America).

    But in general, vapes are shit and should be banned. No issues there. This producer will soon be blocked pretty easily.

      Notice my next comment clarifying that I am talking about mind altering substances. You may think vapes are shit but they wouldn’t be around if people didn’t like them plus no major second hand or terrible smell like traditional cigarettes homie.

      Also cigarettes in Australia. They’re not banned, obviously, they’re just taxed so high that hardly anyone smokes them anymore. I’m probably a bit sheltered, but I’m genuinely surprised when I see someone smoking an actual cigarette now.
