San Francisco, a city where personal freedom was valued, has banned flavored e-liquid, which almost certainly will doom many smokers to early deaths. The ban, which takes effect next April passed as an ordinance prohibiting sales of all flavored “tobacco products” The new law also bans flavored cigars and menthol cigarettes.
The law was vehemently opposed by the vaping community, and owners of convenience stores in the bay area, and was pushed by the state’s powerful tobacco control industry, which is centered in the Bay Area.
“San Francisco has done a shameful thing,” wrote CASAA CEO Alex Clark. “Rather than consider innovative new ways to address the disease and early death attributed to smoking, San Francisco’s Board of Supervisors has, instead, opted to experiment on their constituents with an untested policy.”
There is absolutely no evidence on earth showing that restricting the availability of vapor products in any way benefits public health. “This was purely an emotional decision,” Clark wrote.
that's an extremely odd decision for the state of California
Well yea, you never know what the bay area could come up with,
There are new studies coming out all the time stating Vapor is like 95% healthier than regular cigs..
It's to bad for the folks who live there...
