The following came to us from Patrick McMahon of Reason.org:
Event: A Vape-In to Protest New York City’s E-Cigarette Smoking Ban
The vape-in will be preceded by a discussion on the role electronic cigarettes can play in reducing harm from smoking and the unintended consequences of NYC’s e-cigarette ban
Opponents of New York City’s ban on e-cigarettes will gather to discuss its ramifications on public health and personal liberty. Then they’ll thumb their noses at the prohibitionists by vaping as the ban takes effect at midnight. A DJ will play music as guests show their disregard for the nanny state by vaping and dancing the night away.
The vape-in, hosted by Reason magazine, Museum of Sex, and Henley Vaporium, will begin at 9:00 pm on Monday, April 28 at Play in New York City.
