This boat has sailed as far as cause du jour for tobacco prevention and the critique remains the same. There is no data demonstrating that this will reduce prevalence as there is for comprehensive tobacco free spaces, tax increases, and marketing reform. Additionally, the tobacco industry continues to use an adults only cachet as an effective marketing vehicle. Changing the age limit from 18 to 21 will have negligible impact on that. The tobacco industry's second favorite thing is to see public health advocates waste time and capital. Of course seeing tobacco prevention advocacy shoot itself in the ass in Arkansas is nothing new. So rather than work toward a comprehensive smoke free law, increasing taxes, or regulating marketing we now have a T21 campaign in Arkansas. woo pig.

When someone vapes an e-cigarette that explodes in their mouth it's like getting shot in their face! While FDA authority is only to regulate electronic cigarettes as tobacco products, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission can completely quash e-cigarettes in America by preventing them from even entering the U.S. The CPSC should immediately and strictly enforce the Consumer Product Safety Act of 1972 by quickly blocking importation of all electronic cigarettes. Rather than harm reduction, e-cigarettes increase harm by inflicting new types of injuries never suffered by nicotine substance abusers smoking combustible tobacco products. We now know that electronic cigarettes even kill people instantly by ballistic and thermal trauma: 'Firefighters found D’Elia inside his burning home, the Tampa Bay Times reported. Officials found “extensive” fire damage in D’Elia’s bedroom, where his body was found...The explosion sent two pieces of the vape pen into the D’Elia’s cranium, the autopsy found. The report listed the cause of death as “projectile wound of the head.” He also suffered burns on about 80 percent of his body.' www.insurancejournal.com/news/southeast/2018/05/22/490041.htm/ E-cigs burn and maim bystanders who are not even using them so "user error" is no excuse!
