    If they banned smoking and allowed vaping I honestly think it would be a great improvement

      Vaping is not a solution to smoking. Especially with the amount of virtually or literally single use vapes. Your healthier alternative still generates a shit ton of pretty bad trash so please choose the healthiest option and just cure your whatever addiction.

        it’s because of the disposables. refillable vapes don’t cause those problems, but of course quitting would be even better. it’s really hard to quit though. i smoked 9 years. even after quitting, it took a few years until i stopped missing the effect. a horrible drug.

        I never said it was a solution. I don’t smoke, but I get that a lot of people who go to these places do and I’d personally be fine with them allowing a transitional period where vaping is allowed.

      Nah, I’ve been subject to clouds of peoples’ vape exhalations; no thanks to that. Ban it all if you’re going to ban it until something has zero output aside from what’s already in peoples’ breath in similar concentrations.
