Thanks @quitter1 for posting.

This is very important to all vapers and I’d hate see it get buried and overlooked. It really deserves its own thread

Continuing the discussion from So what's really up?:

#A Billion Lives recently had their Facebook ads rejected due to violation of Facebook’s tobacco policy. If you aren’t aware of A Billion Lives, you should definitely check them out, as they are creating a film that revolves around “A True Story Of Government Failure, Big Business & The Vaping Revolution.”

I have heard several stories about vape-communities like Vaping underground, who had their accounts deleted with no reason given. If only FB was as diligent removing childporn from their site.

I just tweeted the article. Also, while visiting Apen Valley Vapes website, Andy there got on chat with me to help and I told him why I was on his page. He’s signing on here today and I’m looking forward to that. Another good warrior in the fight!

I’m no major tweeter (twit? Twitterer? Hell what do they call a person who tweets…a bird?) :slight_smile: Anyway, here’s what I sent out. Feel free to re twittt lol

@AndyAspenValleyVapes

Glad you made it brother. And thanks for taking time to chat with me when I visited your website and also for the article that @Pro_Vapes linked to here. I think you’ll enjoy your time here.

@daath (Lars) is the head honcho here. Any major issues, concerns or questions he will be the one who knows everything about the site.

Also this is the forum companion site to Lars’ E Liquid Recipes site. It’s a fantastic calculator and place you can create and store recipes. By default recipes you make are kept private. However you can open them to the public if you like as well as search or browse other public recipes. http://e-liquid-recipes.com/

Glad you’re here!

I don’t take credit for it. This is @quitter1 post I just took it off the back page so more would see it.

You know I had to get in. We all should be showing support. This is no time to be passive. You see what @daath posted in the UK. It’s coming here too if we don’t put some type of fight.

I just wanna see the movie. In case anyone didn’t dig into the story, A Billion Lives is a documentary film by a non vaper looking at the history of vaping and what governments are doing to the industry and the people who are using vaping to get and stay off cigarettes.

Here’s a link to an interview with the director (it’s over an hour long, but I found it interesting).

The government will roll over us if we don’t put up a fight. Vaping isn’t a little thing anymore. UNITED WE STAND! !!! Ya know they all are talking about nicotine. Not everyone even uses nicotine. At first this started as to quit smoking. But now its tirned into a hobby. And i love it and i know we all love it. I will stand up right alnog side each and everyone over vaping.
