Why should adults not get to enjoy an adult product because of someone else's kids? (This isn't even about politics. I thought it was ridiculous when sale of clove cigarettes was banned, too.)

DING.

Nah, the flavored-vape freak-out was happening before the whole illness thing. Parents hysterical because their kids were vaping. Then the illness thing came up, and that's when people started wanting to ban vaping altogether (though I'm sure the ban-flavored-vapes crowd conveniently seized upon it, too). Still has nothing to do with the fact that, as you said, most of the illnesses came from shady vapes.
Ha ha! This is why I don't read 'safety' labels anymore - because now they say things like, "don't eat soap pods" for heaven's sake. Well, sometimes I do read them just to see what wacky things I may have missed out on lately.

I'm growing weary of, it's "for the children"..... and really I am 'for the children'.... for them to grow-up and learn how to be responsible adults, from responsible adults.

How many other things will be DE-flavored? Or RE-flavored - to manipulate and sanitize reality?

Good decision... We don't need to pay for others' lack of parenting with lost freedoms and legislate our choices under a nanny state.

Just because a post, a comment, an article, a whistleblower, the law, or impeachment is "mired in egregious hate for President Trump" does not make the substance of what is being charged any less valid.

(Just like someone being paranoid does not negate the possibility that someone actually IS out to get them.)
