To vape or not to vape.....that is the question.

   SO while writing this post I decided to comment on a topic that I had no idea was a political issue or controversy.  Electronic Cigarettes are they better? written by Lauren, has everything to do with vaporizers vs. cigarettes. Lauren discusses the possible fact that electronic cigarettes might receive a list of regulations from the FDA. Lauren's approach is rather informative, as she speaks about the e-cig's proposal from the FDA. 

   Because I am often around people who do like to hit the vape, I must say that I too find myself asking "what the hell are you smoking anyways?". Most of these modern vaporizers, are connected to a small tank filled with a liquid called e-juice. I'm pretty sure research can be done to actually specify what the e-juice contains and if it is even good for our body, but for right now lets just compromise with the fact that it is a nicotine flavored liquid, made purely of nothing but water. 

   If this is indeed true, I am an advocated for pro-vaporizer usage. The only thing I do not agree with, is the public appearance it makes by people who use it. No matter how anti-dangerous it may happen to be, I personally believe that it's usage in public stores, restaurants or any facility that involves consumers is rather tacky. 

   E-cigs or vaporizers may not have a smoke scent associated with it but like I've once stated before, no one knows what they are made of and the effects it might have on other people who don't smoke. Also it sends a bad message to children about smoking in general. I may just be old fashion but if smoking anything is going to be done it shouldn't be in the presence of  infants, minors, elderly people with health issues or animals.


My Gay Commentary


      Recently I've come across a colleges work called Blog #5- Rant on by Tri Tang. The blog speaks about the difficulties of same sex marriage and the governments associated approach to it. The blog itself seems to stem from a personal belief that Gay marriage should be legalized with no exceptions by any means necessary. I must say that his argument in his work is a bit cliched, but nonetheless I do agree with him. Society itself is so infiltrated with whats right, whats wrong, or what should be right and what should be wrong. 

     These accusations rely heavily on the irrelevance of people in general. However, I do believe that people are indeed entitled to what ever belief they want. When I was younger I used to believe that marriage was a sacred bond between two individuals that are truly in love with each other.  Now love itself  has all these new connotations, its makes it hard to understand what kind of "love" is associated with marriage. If two men or women claim that they are "in love" with each other, who exactly can say that the love they claim to share isn't worthy of marriage, the sacred bond between two people who love each other. 

     One the most controversial arguments stated in reference to the topic is "Why does it matter to other people that two men or women love each other". I argue that its not what matters it's just the fact that people are scared of change and terrified of insecurities, basically because gay's are running the world. To me the subject is like the legalization issues of marijuana. People denote all these negative elaborations on it, when all the time it happens to be something pure and natural. 

     So what if you put a law on a paper and say It's not acceptable. Just like weed smokers going to continue to smoke pot, gays are going to continue the lifestyles as if they were heterosexual. They are still going to date, find a way to get married, have sex, raise a family, ya know the same stuff "regular" people would do. Like I've once stated before, too much time and money is spent trying to decide no one can control. The reality of the situation is just as simple as that. It literally doesn't need to be this difficult or hard to get with the program.
