Yeah, this really strikes me as the difference between "breathing car exhaust without a catalytic converter is toxic" and "breathing car exhaust can still be toxic" - yeah, both are bad, but one of them is orders of magnitude worse.
- gaius 8y agoyeah, both are bad So vaping should continue to be banned everywhere that smoking is banned. Most people do not consent to breathing other peoples second-hand drugs.
- dionian 8y agois it even possible to get a perceptible amount of nicotine through second hand smoke? isn't it mostly water vapor and annoying smells?
- gaius 8y agoLung damage too, according to this research. How does anyone even think it's OK to do that to other people?
- firemancoder 8y agoYou do a lot more lung damage by driving by them in car. I'm not a vaper, never have been never will but I'd rather deal with the faint smell of strawberry than cigarette smoke any day.
- Obi_Juan_Kenobi 8y agoDid you read the article? > The review concluded there was "overwhelming evidence" they were far safer than smoking and "of negligible risk to bystanders" And isn't this just a strawman? Are people proposing indoor vaping laws?
- firemancoder 8y agoProposing? They're all over the place. Vaping was quite quickly lumped in with smoking in my area. None indoors or within 10 feet of the doors etc.
- jotm 8y agoYeah, ban anxious, depressed, hungry, loud and sick people while at it. They affect other people's mental health and can infect them with weird stuff like rhinoviruses and influenza. Shit, why stop there, why not round them up and put them in some temporary camps, there was an European guy who tried that and it worked pretty well.
- ASalazarMX 8y agoGodwin's law in the wild. Nice.
- firemancoder 8y agoAlmost bot-like response.
- jotm 8y agoLol, I wonder if it would've been received better if I didn't hint at Mr. Hilter. I'd rather have someone smoke on the street than someone with the flu coughing my way.
