I knew this. You knew this. Anyone with half a brain knew this.

Legal vaping did not cause all the problems that hysterical idiots want to associate with vaping.

Look, e-cigs have been a thing since about what...  2011?  Maybe earlier?  So if vaping and e-cigs were suddenly causing lung damage, we would have seen it in 2012.  But it's 2019.  And I'm willing to bet that the kids who have been showing up with lung damage weren't vaping back in 2011. 

Nope.  This isn't about vaping, really.  It's about black-market THC cartridges, and the vitamin E oil used make them.

I'm willing to bet, right here and now, that not one single legitimate vape or e-cig manufacturer can be linked to the lung damage that people are freaking about today.

So far, investigators have determined that most cases appear to be associated with the use of vaping products containing tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the primary psychoactive ingredient in marijuana. Many of the injured also reported using counterfeit or black-market products containing THC, notably those marketed as "Dank Vapes."

"Most cases".  Try "All cases".  Again, not one single legitimate vape or e-cig manufacturer has had any link to the lung injuries being reported.  And I don't even vape, folks.  I don't use e-cigs.  But I'm a little sick of seeing brainless idiots howling about how vaping is evil when it's not.  Not one single Juul user is keeling over.

But kids getting high on black market crap are doing so.  Go figure.
