  • calm down everyone . we know that ecigs are a safe alternative to smoking , this is why the government doesn.t like it . in the uk it is a fact that if everyone stopped smoking giggies the national health service would end due to lack of tax from smokers....not to mention the big drug companies being unable to sell all the cancer drugs . of course they hate egigs.......hypocritical fucks

  • Btw, the FDA is full of shit...they only found TRACE levels of toxins (IN ONE of the solutions) which were so minute (at a lvl of 0.001) that it's just as dangerous as shaking a tobacco smokers hand. But then again, the FDA is being lobbied by BIG Tobacco companies to try and put a ban on e-cigs since they are a direct threat to their business of dealing death. HAH

  • Gotta love the FDA. Aspartame showed resulting brain tumors & seizures in test animals. Donald Rumsfeld was brought on as CEO of drug company GD Searle to get aspartame approved. He worked in President Regan's transition team to get a new FDA commissioner. New commissioner approved aspartame against a storm of controversy then went to work for the public relations firm of GD Searle. Rumsfeld was the Secretary of War Mongering for President Ford b4 turning into a corporate prostitute skank.

  • wait a second not covered by tobacco laws so it makes it hard for the da to regulate them BINGO thats why there making up lies about them they cant tax them the same so they wanna make up lies well if ecigs are so bad then why the fuck do they let us smoke regular ciggarettes there worse

  • @myqutey No doesnt make sense.

    1: Nicotine doesnt impair your judgement like cannabis would in certain situations, as in driving or operating machinery at work or other similar things - regardless of what some people would want you to think.

    2: The goverment cant tax you on it.

    3: This video is about electronic cigs and if they are bad, or worse, for you, than real cigs, this is not about your weed addiction.

  • How many people have died from THC? Answer: 0. How many people have died from the 17 FDA approved synthetic versions of cannabinoids? Answer: 11,687 between 1997 and 2005. FDA is entirely full of shit.

  • i stopt smoking for 5 months now .but i got wery sick of the electronic cigarette

  • this is bollocks utter bollocks you only get this if you buy from non licensed suppliers so shut up

  • @len59356 you don't even have to go that far, there are a lot of sites that sell pre-mixed e-juice (in pretty much every imaginable flavor)... refilling old cartomizers is easy, but you can refer to a video on how to do that, they're everywhere. Happy Vaping!

  • @doomsdayducker smart...i consume e juice A LOT coz im a heavy vaper...i quit smoking 2 packs of analouges EVERDAY 2 weeks ago when i'm introduced with e cigs..sir is it really safe to use the home made e juice??

  • jesus, every news station is using the same excuse "they contain a chemical found in ANTI-FREEZE!" (which will lead the simple person watching this to think "huh, anti-freeze would kill me if i drank it, so that means that this is baaaaad!") okay, let me allow this to chase around in your head, a chemical used to manufacture coca-cola was also used to make NUCLEAR BOMBS! wanna know what that is? Dihydrogen Monoxide! which as everyone should know... is water... do research, smarten up.

  • Easy one;The gov. tolerates the tobacco companies to shove addictive compunds down our bodies in order to keep shoving dollars down their pockets all our lives but when we finally find an alternative to burning stuff,conspiracy theories,corporate lies and misinformation beggins;

    were almost in 2012,most of us have been using the intertubes for like 10 yrs,wake-up govs,you cant fool us anymore.
