Los Angeles Approves Sweeping E-Cigarette Restrictions-Nanny Gov Sez E Cigs Bad Before Tests Are In
Pols buy into paranoid BS again….
The Los Angeles City Council on Tuesday approved sweeping new regulations that would treat e-cigarettes like conventional cigarettes, after one of the most personal debates to be heard on the council floor in years.
On a 14-0 vote, lawmakers outlawed “vaping” — the practice of inhaling the vapors produced by e-cigarettes — in most work sites and many public places, including parks and certain beaches.
Lawmakers voted to continue allowing e-cigarette use in so-called vaping lounges, where patrons can try the various e-juices that are loaded into the battery-powered devices. And they narrowly defeated a push by the e-cigarette industry to let the practice continue in 21-and-over establishments, such as bars and nightclubs.
