That’s BS!
Not right. I have COPD… My ecig… has helped me to quit smoking after 35 yrs. and walk more…and they dont leave any trash. I use one with no nicotine, so who the heck is it hurting??? REALLY????You all better worry about people leaving trash and starting fires first! ~Peace and Love~
You are absolutely right Eva. Real sad. Same boat here.
Nope. Take that smoke and hit the road.
It’s not smoke
Sorry. Take that e-smoke and hit the road.
It has nicotine in it, it is poisonous……
Idiot. ~Peace and Love~
Wrong. If you disagree with the law, and didn’t do everything you could to stop it – you’re the idiot. Now it’s time to obey it.
Also, gotta love the irony of your reply. Call someone an idiot, then sign off with “peace and love”. Classic!
They don’t all have nicotine and it’s a water vapor. Ban mist!!
Witty sarcasm doesn’t change laws. Trust me.
Let’s ban everything!! Who needs facts?
Really???? Stupidest thing ever…Maybe we should worry about Homelessness, Veterans, Equality, Abused children, Hungry children, Cancer , the elderly, only to name a few….. WTF??? Believe me, the list goes on.. ~Peace and Love~
This is about cigarette companies trying to eliminate competition
Mike Pizza
I thought the point of e cigarettes is that they are vapor and the second hand “smoke” isnt harmful?
It’s a myth. There are chemicals in the vapor. I’m not sure about the second hand smoke, but many medical journals are saying they are harmful to the person smoking them. I think the smoke and fumes cause cellular changes in the linings of the throat, bronchi, and alveoli.
It’s harmful to us yes but everyone else should be harmless
That’s what they said about cigarettes 40 years ago.
Wrong
Not to mention they are blowing up in people’s faces.
Hatred is amazing
Lanna Ng God I hope you are smart enough to realize how far we have advanced in medical science from 4 years ago
That’s from people modifying them and not knowing what they are doing Chris Kell.
its all about money
Only in California
National parks…..nationwide.
I think that sucks and I don’t even smoke that crap
Idiots.
Dumb as hell…. I pay taxes too…. FU ~Peace and Love~
FU! Peace and Love! Viva la irony!
I did not mean FU to say that to you. .. sorry if you took it that way… ~Peace and Love~
Kristin Morelock awesome!! Smokings so nasty
Welcome to America, land of the “controlled” freedom.
Yay! So thankful!
Regardless of if it’s hurting anyone or not, some people just don’t want it blown in their face in public. Why is that hard to understand?
Ever here of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness? A park is huge. Why not make it illegal within 10ft of another person
Because in the vast space of a national park, it’s bound to be blown directly in your face, right?
James that would be fine too. But I don’t like going to Disneyland with my kids or to the fair and people are walking in a crowd blowing it all over the place. That’s rude
Not likely, but still does because people are inconsiderate ;)
Agreed! I was at the grocery store last night and this young girl was blowing it INSIDE at the deli! Where my food was being prepared! It was so rude
That there is exactly my point. The entitlement and non thinking of others is why these rules are made.
I’m can understand not allowing the use of e-cigs in enclosed public places such as buildings because it can bother some people. However, outside with free flowing air should be completely acceptable. I don’t mean for this to come across as rude, but don’t you think that maybe you’re trying to impose YOUR sense of entitlement on others? I’m allergic to dogs but they still get to walk around in public and go into places. I don’t complain about it. I just don’t come anywhere near them. Don’t you think maybe the anti-vapers and anti-smokers could possibly do the same thing? Just keep your distance from someone who is vaping and there’s no longer an issue.
Wow.
Wow yourself ^
Seriously just walk away
Lol
Do us all a favor put a bag over your head…and your kids too.
Ok ?
People farting goes on other people faces too. Maybe we should ban farting in parks too. Oh the whiners in CA.
The chemicals actually are harmful…still second hand smoke only with lovely new chemicals.
? these stink so bad and create a cloud of disgust with every puff. Yuck. Have you seen people smoking it in their cars??? I’m surprised they can see the road!
I’m curious as to why you think they stink…. Especially compared to actual cigarettes
I walked my kid to the bus stop this morning and all I smelled was cigarette smoke pouring out of a car… I’d rather smell vanilla custard or fruit punch etc then cigarette smoke.
Yes Ashley thank god. I kick customers out of my work when they walk in smoking that crap. Yuck keep it outside
They stink to me because they have a musty thick smell that irritates my allergies. Also created harsh breathing conditions for my daughter with Asthma. I avoid it at all costs.
To each their own, I don’t care if people want to smoke it up and enjoy it, I don’t enjoy it and favor any such laws that prohibit it in public areas where regular cigs are not allowed.
Why is the word “smoking” used when referring to liquid vapor? Do you not understand that there is no smoke? Should we ban fog machines on Halloween, because the same ingredients are used…?
I may be completely wrong but I was under the impression that Regular cigs aren’t allowed in national parks because they present a fire hazard. That isn’t a concern with the use of e-cigs. so why should they need to be banned in an open, outdoor environment?
Nicole, Don’t ask me lol
I think its horrible e smokers are sent to cigarette smoking spots to puff!
Especially the ones who are vaping to quit actual cigs. Let’s just throw them into a pit of temptation while they try to improve their health!!! Such BS….
Thanks…
thank goodness the National Parks don’t have any other issues so the Director can make policy on e-cigs
Christopher Alan Patriani
This is absolutely stupid.

Statists.
Control
Ignorance prevails and enables controlling entities.
Thanks :)
Good…….
Disobey unjust laws!
That great. They have no idea yet how these chemicals being inhaled , will affect them in a few years.Kids are using them and these vap shops are popping up all over. They’ve only just begun designing drugs to use in them!
Bravo!!!!
Everyone just lovvvves to hate. Hate on.

I swear everything “should be” be illegal, because sure seems like everything is/ will be…. before we know it, wiping our asses is going to cost us 50 cents.
