Big tobacco trying to kill big vape by making it exciting again to smoke and break the law

Not a smoker or wannabe one but if someone is just one year behind in their age, they'll never be able to legally smoke with this setup.

Cool things that leftists always support: making drugs illegal.

Cool things that have historically worked and not made things worse: Prohibition.

Like seriously what the fuck is this shit since when did we believe in making drugs illegal.

Yeah no, you don't get to arbitrarily use age to deny people their rights and manipulate them into doing what you want them to do.

If he wanted it to work he could make cigarettes more lethal. Kill you in a couple of months type of thing.

(Clearly not a serious suggestion in case you wonder)
