vapers.org.uk - Nothing About Us. Without Us.

[jessica]

Thank you very much  I will pass your support back up the line to the very hardworking and dedicated vapers.org.uk team too

Here's a special post from vapers.org.uk from yesterday, a full on rant written by Chris Johnson:


Sorry in advance for the rant…But apparently you guys keep asking for them so here you go. It’s a doozy.I really hate to say it but the more time I spend on social media, the more time I want to find a way out of this industry and open a store doing something else… anything else. The ignorance and fighting amongst each other before AND even more so after the shit hit the fan when the deeming FDA regulations were published simply disgusts me. I think to myself… this is what we’re trying to protect?! I keep having to remind myself it represents only a mere fraction of “vapers”. The online “community” is a minority. People walking into vape shops looking for a way to quit or be healthy aren’t interested in ANY of this stupid shit. But to those online… it’s their ENTIRE life. It’s starting to sicken me. Literally..........  (visit the post to read it all)
