San Francisco is set to become the first major US city to ban e-cigarettes

were vaping in 2018, up from 3.6 million the year before. CDC Director Robert R. Redfield said when the study released that the country must help keep kids safe from a preventable health risk.

San Francisco's proposed ordinance expands on a 2014 measure which banned the sale of such devices where the sales of traditional tobacco products are already prohibited. "But the prohibition of vapor products for all adults in San Francisco will not effectively address underage use and will leave cigarettes on shelves as the only choice for adult smokers, even though they kill 40,000 Californians every year," said Juul spokesman Ted Kwong.

More money.. more discriminating poor person.

TimInHonolulu Tobacco only or THC too?

Yay!

Why not ban illegals. 🖕🏻California

E cigarette bad but drunk passed out on mattress okay 🤔

But feces, urine and syringes are acceptable. What a mixed up topsy turvy world.

Ok wait so you will keep regular cigarettes filled with millions of chemicals each literally claiming .5mm lives per year to ban the much safer alternative? Kind of bazzar ....

Hahaha what a joke

Ban vapor but let people shit all over the place priorities

Yeah because e-cigarettes is what’s destroying that city, are they stupid or something? 😂🤣😂🤣

But killing babies by abortion: sure no problem..🙄🙄

sailtothemoon_ 🙄

Ban e-cigs but poo on the streets is OK...

But why?

LOL....but it's ok to have 100k shitting/pissing in the streets

E-cigarettes are the least of their worries. Clean up the city. It’s filthy!

Ban e-cigs ..... But keep cancer causing tobacco legal....🤔.... Corrupt government

I can see them being used as a way for smokers to quit like nicotine gum or patches but for nonsmokers to use them? What to pretend to smoke? I mean if you want to smoke then smoke, but pretending to smoke? Grow up already.

But heroin is still OK?

They will let homeless shit on the street but God forbid you vape lmfao.

Should e-cigaretts be banned?

A city with shit maps for the streets are worried about e-cigarettes ?

LOL. The state hands out needles for illegal and extremely dangerous drugs at the taxpayer's expense..

coming from the city with an app that tells you where all the human feces on the streets is... yeah

So, then people will go back to smoking cigarettes. Well done.

With ZERO Evidence!

I'm sorry, I thought this was the land of the free...

😂😂 hand out needles to drug users, make marijuana legal then ban e cigarettes. Sensible

That is so much worse than killing unborn children.

But you all like Marijuana 🙄

And after that, you're going to ban heroin and meth use on the streets? Maybe ban pooping on the sidewalks? Good to see y'all are so socially aware. Warms my heart.

awesome

...why though? it’s not gonna stop any of it from happening. there’s wayyyy bigger things the city should be focused on than that.

About time....

So every adult who pays taxes has to suffer because kids who don’t pay into the system aren’t supervised appropriately by their parents. Whatever.

But smoking marijuana is ok! See the more states that legalized marijuana the more stupidity take hold!

yall

Excellent move. E-Cigs are addictive & almost as unhealthy as straight tobacco. We're doing our own research, and keeping an eye on vaping in cannabis as well. HigherGround MichaelStusser

Are cigarettes banned there? If not, maybe start with that first before going after vapes.

PattyArquette Enjoy's the word😀💋

PattyArquette Thereby punishing adult, legal vapers for the actions of those breaking the law.

That’s their solution to homelessness, open use of drugs and people pooping everywhere. Huge accomplishment there.

But I can still shit on the street right? Cool

That solves the homeless problem

Why? I’d rather ban cigarettes first

Can we also ban cigarettes at least

PattyArquette But not drug needles

You can walk around but naked but smoking an ecig is crossing the line?🤔🤔🤔🤔

Awesome!

good

But you can poop on the street...makes sense. WakeUpAmerica

California might as well be Russia. No freedom of anything the left doesn't approve of.

Bet if it was vapor weed it would be ok?

Soon to ban living!

But what about the hipsters? Where will we go?

But not pooping on the sidewalks. Let’s tackle e-cigarettes first. Unbelievable.

🥴

But syringes and feces on the street are perfectly acceptable.

But needles are given out freely.

Iv a better idea. Ban nicotine👈🎈

Prohibition but with vaping Addict: In a hushed tone 'Hey man you got juul pods?' Plug: 'I got you, that'll be 30 untaxed dollars.' San Francisco: 😯

Uh oh, Commiefornia

A win for cannabis industry?

Why not ban the douches that use them too

Now if they could just ban shitting on the sidewalk... wait a minute.

If it pleases the crown, I shalln’t vape o ye majesty

Ban regular cigarettes too

Ban the douche kazoo

Lol

Vaping Nazis.
