Vaping is serious health risk with the need for tighter rules or even nationwide bans.
“Vaping is dangerous because it’s bad for your health” Lacey Mulero, senior, said. “Teens should also not be allowed to vape since it’s against the law.”
She also argued that secondhand vape smoke is another reason to limit usage.
“Vaping is very harmful; it exposes people to very bad chemicals,” Marckayveon Martin, senior, said. “Merchants who sell vapes to minors should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”
Not everyone shares that view.
“Banning vapes altogether isn’t necessary, even though people are inhaling all the toxins from the smoke,” Martin said. “Anyone of age can still buy them, just like they can buy cigarettes.”
Many students said they believe vapes should be restricted more heavily, with some saying they should be “banned all around America.”
