Ashtray Blog: An Electronic Cigarette Blog

Electronic cigarette users angry and suspicious

Many of the 150 electronic cigarette users in our recent survey had a lot to get off their chest.

Here’s some of the comments that were made.

Anger:

“Banning these devices would be a travesty. There has been no other option that I’ve tried that has completely made me quit smoking except e-cigs. I feel healthy, I run quite a bit now, my sense of taste and smell has returned. Why in hell would you ban such a thing?”

Defiance:

“I refuse to give the government, big tobacco, or the pharmaceutical companies any more money.”

Dismay

“If electronic cigarettes are banned or become difficult to obtain, the efforts made by people who have worked hard to give up smoking would be undermined. I would estimate that 60-70% of these people would return to smoking within a month.”

Going illegal

“Having freed myself from a 30 year+ tobacco dependancy with e-cigs I would take whatever steps seemed necessary to secure my supplies.”

“I am basically a law abising citizen – but a Ban or other type of removal from the market would be totally unjust – I havge educated myself about the facts am well aware of the misinformation and fear-mongering
being disseminated by the FDA, ALA, AHA, ACS and others and it is shameless!! This corruption will eventually come to the light – if it is the Last thing I do, I swear that the entire truth will be made Very Public! I am a 56 yr old professional in the health care industry (for the past twenty-six years) I am not a fanatic, nor do I make idle promises.”

“The slim chance of being caught, slim chance of being punished and the modest nature of that punishment is not comparable to the alternative (a highly likely relapse into years of cigarette smoking.”

And we have to get this compliment of our e-cigs in :)

“Anything I can do to thwart a ban of electronic cigarettes, let me know. They are GREAT! Especially NJOY’s.”
