The Trump administration is considering a ban on all nontobacco-flavored vaping products

President Trump said the administration is considering banning all non-tobacco-flavored vaping products from the market amid growing concerns about health hazards and use by teenagers.

Mr. Trump made the comments as he met with Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar and acting FDA Commissioner Norman Sharpless at the White House.

It's black market liquids that are causing the illnesses, so let's force everyone onto the black market. Pure genius!

but the tobacco flavors are fine because no kid ever liked tobacco, right?

Non-Tobacco-flavored vapes? Gee how about we ban the tobacco ones first? Dumbass smh

👎👎👎👎👎

Translation: “Vaping black market to receive a massive commercial boost”.

But no ban on AK47 and AR15. More people will die.

Please ban it now! this will send shock waves to any company who's planning to poison our children, if the president falls through on this he will definitely be remembered as the best and smartest president ever in AMERICAN history.

Strong words...Vaping will be addressed because 6 people died....Guns....HOT AIR

Good luck. See how far that gets you

Obviously vaping nicotine products is an issue but the deaths and many of the reported cases are caused by non regulated black market THC cartridges, a product that will only be more sought out if this ban goes through...

Should ban flavored sodas and flavored vodka as well

Looks like I'll be going back to smoking cigs after taking 1.5 years off.

This is like Looney Tunes logic. What about alcohol and ACTUAL tobacco?

That will make the problem WORSE. The black market is far more lucrative and entirely unregulated. Kids will just get their Bubble Gum flavored vapes from a sketchy plug off snapchat.

Because tobacco flavored vaping makes the transition to cigarettes easier. That's what we want, right?

If they're talking specifically about THC cartridges giving complete control to the black market probably isn't the best idea. A lot of these lung problems came from cartridges bought from drug dealers who cut the oil in the cartridges with other s*** like vitamin e.

Why don’t they do something about the Opioid Crisis first? 🤷🏼‍♀️ You know the one killing thousands from overdosing

We have had approximately a dozen deaths from vaping but literally hundreds from gun violence related deaths! Great priorities dumbasses😡

Why not the tobacco flavored ones too?

😡

Welp, there goes the millennial vote...

coz their lobbyists aint paying the gov enough right?

Wtf would tabacco flavour be ok, aren't we trying to get people off of it?

Might as well ban menthol cigarettes and flavored chewing tobacco

Yeah... good luck.
