Have a look at this text, copied directly from the bill in N.Y.
Some of this language and points which amount to unfounded scaremongering are ridiculous.
So, this is the basis of making the sale of e-liquid illegal.
1) The liquid has been found to be deadly. 2) A teaspoon of diluted e-liquid (so that's not even e-liquid) can kill a small child 3) Nicotine in liquid form can be absorbed more quickly even when diluted, making it more dangerous than tobacco 4) This ban will save people's lives.
Hard to know where to begin really.

As the recent ban on use in public enclosed places is about to be thrown Out by the courts I'm not surprised, will it succeed? Only if NY vapers let it. Will it be used by the media to sling some mud, you betcha.

Because of a minority of eejits they ban it
I think they should also ban the following - alcohol; credit cards; exotic pets; the internet LOL

Actually why don't they just say that NY is a premillenial dispensationalist state and imprison everyone who doesn't have that delusion rofl

They should also ban household bleach as well then, well over 200,000 cases of reported poisonings in under 5's between 1990-2006!

That NYT article has been pulled apart by several articles and blogs as it contained so many mistruths so for them to quote it in possible legislation beggars belief.

I've been thinking about this....
We need to ban many, many things, right now.
Cars. check Alcohol. check Household chemicals. check Tobacco. check Pain killers. check
All these things can kill.
We know e-liquid is dangerous stuff.

We know e-liquid is dangerous stuff. It might more sense just to ban people - they are always the common denominator in all serious accidents!

Don't forget that playing Judas Priest vinyl records backwards, or any of Black Sabbath's early releases will automatically make you worship evil and cause the end of the world by evil means

most of all they should ban sugar - because that is the real killer
also who in his sane mind will feed a child a teaspoon of eliquid - mind you - it's for the Americans that we have those oh so sense full instruction like on a toaster :'don't use under water' - or once we had a car and it seriously said : before starting the engine search the surroundings for obstacles ' or the guy , who wanted to rob a bank and shot himself in the foot and sued the weapon company and and and ......
Einstein once said: 2 things are infinite - the Universe and human stupidity - I am not so sure about the Universe
edit : just wanted to say I have fantastic American friends - it's not the individual American
