We're currently having a work Thanksgiving so excuse me while I go stuff my faceeeeeee but also I love yo faces and I'll see ya on Monday.
Philip DeFranco LOVE YOU PHIL

Hi dad!
Can you talk about the FDA trying to ban Kratom?
for the GQ thing i was just went " oh for fucks sake". Its like people are tracks dogs waiting at the gate to chase down the metaphoric rabbit.
Juuls has better verification than my bank.
Right?
So true. Feel like ss # lists are floating around. By 16 i would've owned my own store of pods. Idk.
If Serena’s okay with it being in quotation marks, that’s all that should matter...
Wow. Juul is really taking steps to implement a change. That’s rare, and I must say I admire that.
The shooting disgusts me. Race taken into consideration or not, that was a man that saved lives and ended up losing his for that very action. It’s just sad.
A white elderly military veteran was shot a year or so ago after he called the police when his house was broken into he had hearing aids and didn't hear the commands to drop his weapon.
It had nothing to do with the color of his skin. Unfortunately we live in a dangerous world and sometimes horrific accidents happen.
If the Tobacco companies did that 60 years ago, there would be a lot less regulation on tobacco products today.
But by covering up the data and research on how bad smoking was, they sealed their fate to be regulated out of existence.
I don't think that JUUL are the bad guys, but I also think that it was more public pressure against them than actually doing the right thing.
Still, glad to see recovering smokers won't lose their options to help quit.
@Johto I am not sure if you can blame this officer. Too many variables that need to be investigated first before blaming someone. There is actually a change that is more of a communication error than anything else.
@@betterhomesnc2437 So? Your point? These are wildly different situations. Like for one how there were people yelling "that's security and they still shot him"
are you trying to says this wasn't a racial thing because something similar (if you can even call it that) happened to a white person a year ago??
@Johto i think it 's a terrible tragedy with a lot of things that went wrong, like he didnt hear the cop warnings, not being clearly identified as security he only had a cap, the people shouting doesnt help because the cop doesnt know if it's the one on the floor or the one on him with the gun, in an active shooter scenario with a possible "hostage", the cop had to make a quick decision with all the info he had and ultimately it was the wrong one, he had to act quick because i think he knew of other situations where someone didnt act and additional lives were lost
Outrage culture is getting so ridiculous that now people getting outraged on someone's behalf believe they are justified and know better even when the person isn't offended or outraged in the least. It's truly insane
In 2018, we get angry over quotation marks 😠
Zico Tops that's the thing though.. WE don't. It's a very loud minority that does and it gets reported as if people in general are outraged.
Welcome to the party of the left...lolololol
@@WholesomeMilk
More importantly: The story should be "smart good looking woman gets rich playing tennis"@@WholesomeMilk
Outrage is all of lisa witt personality. Just check her out. what a sad person
If you cant observe, assess and read your surroundings and situation as a police officer with a deadly weapon, you should be fired. Period!
Nah...paid vacation is better.
/s
“I feared for my life”
Sorry officer, that’s your goddamn job, no one made you pick up that badge. You chose to be a cop, deal with situations that come with it.
Another sad thing about the security guy that was shot, was that because he was a good guy, he was doing the right thing, now that he is gone, someone at sometime in the future will be in danger or worse because this gentleman is no longer in our world. Taken either by stupidity or racism or for some other ridiculous reason.
_The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men should do nothing._ And here was a good man that was doing something.... The world already has plenty of people that aren't willing to step up. We need more like this guy.
I fully support the age restricted area instead of banning flavors.
Why? It's better than smoking cigarettes so what's the problem? Kids can get hold of cigarettes so why not just intercept that by not throwing the gavel down on harmless vapes
@@IAmRedherrings
Because addiction and dependence are a thing. Non-candy flavors will still be as widely available as real cigarettes.
@@IAmRedherrings Mainly it's so they leave us adults who actually (gasp) like candy flavors alone. Considering the alternative was banning any flavors but those disgusting tobacoo and menthol flavors. (Serious, if I wanted those flavors, I'd just keep smoking like I did for 30 years.)
I under stand and agree with you, but we have a choice between two evils in today's kneejerk society. This is definitely the lesser of evils.
We would have college kids buy us beer back in high school, or our friends older brother, and his girlfriend, everyone has a “beer guy” “weed guy” , people’s obsession with policy changes and laws, they do nothing, you can do whatever you want to do to make you feel better. We all know the truth deep down, if parents are worried, talk to your kids, create a safe environment in which they can discuss there feelings/curiosity, and let them make the decisions in there life. Be the best parent you can be, children although young, are individuals.
The flavor ban won't do anything to stop kids from smoking, and it's irritating. I smoked (cigarettes) throughout high school, mostly because all my friends smoked. None of us smoked because 'yey tasty mint!, we're such kids, only liking sweet stuffs lol". We smoked because it made us feel rebellious, independent and grown up. It doesn't make much sense in retrospect but it's the truth. I had a menthol phase, but I would have smoked exactly the same amount without it being available.
Regulations have to take into account the mentality behind young people smoking. The flavor situation might impact middle schoolers, but not teenagers. Adults seems to forget what the difference between being 9 and being 15 is.
Nawh bro truet me we have little kids doing it because of flavors ie ima a 20 I did it as a hughschooler and managed to quite now. And i even smoked cigarettes before that and got to say that juul is harder to quite
Same! I did also have a menthol fase, but got to a point where Id get nauseous with it so I kept smoking normal ones. Wont change a thing!
Ban it all, heh communist style.
Ecigs were not popular for youth until all of the flavours and the vaporizers that created a ton of smoke were released
I never understood that mentality myself. Maybe it's a byproduct of the way our parents parented us, but I never felt the need to be rebellious. I'm curious as to why you think that is.
I'm offended that people are offended.
@@elexceer6226 im offended that you are offended that she is offended cuz ppl are offended
I find this very offensive. And I am offended at myself for being so thin skinned. Excuse me while I downvote myself.
I'm triggered instead of offended because I'm a rebel.
I’m offended that all of you are offended about being offended and ultimately that leaves me offended and disappointed.
I bought a Juul because of your last video and have dramatically cut down/nearly stopped smoking. Thanks Phil 👍
Congratulations!
Ok, now this is epic
Congrats and good luck!
@Megara Lyons way to be supportive! Maybe you should go back and reread the comment and think about the implications.
HELL YEAH! I celebrated 5 years cigarette free in August thanks to my Vape! Congratulations♡
As a wise person once said "Just because you are offended does not mean you are in the right"
James Wise Magic who said that?
@@g4b3r901 your mother
Hahadonkeypunch epic libtard destroyed
If people are worried that vaping leads to tobacco smoking, then ban cigarettes not fruity vape juices.
The only thing offensive about the Serena thing is that the guy uses quotation marks for emphasis. This encourages people to use poor grammar, which in turn infuriates the grammar nazis. It's like he's deliberately provoking internet arguments. (NB: Yes I'm joking).
Nostra Fn Damus I’m offended by your comment. Do not joke about poor grammar, it is a serious issue.
...pretty sure he knew why he used quotation marks this time around...let's not kid ourselves, but if you put her right next to all the other female tennis players.....yeah....there's a reason that she keeps winning.
You started a dumpster fire...now please put it out
In 2018 being "offended" is a hobby
I grew up in a house where my mother smoked. By the influence of the media and my older brother I regularly questioned that decision and implied that it was a selfish choice that would shorten her lifespan. When I came of age I bought a pack of cigarettes and found out what a nicotine buzz was. I occasionally had a cigarette thereafter but for the most part left it by the wayside. 2 years later my uncle died very unexpectedly from an operation where the prognosis is generally favorable. He passed away and instead of dealing with my emotions about it I started smoking more regularly to calm my anxiousness about it. Before I knew it, I was addicted to nicotine and was a regular smoker. My parents found several packs of cigarettes on me and eventually confronted me asking me to please just be up front about whether or not I was a smoker. Given my parents understanding nature I knew it was best to admit that I had taken up smoking so I did. I now have been smoking for over 10 years of my life and it was without a doubt the worst decision I've made in my life. Even if the nicotine buzz is slightly intriguing at first it doesn't make up for how the habit makes you feel in the long run... I wish to God I had ever taken up the habit in the first place. Learn from those who come before:the initial satisfying of your curiosity is not worth the long term effects of this product. It is a seductive mistress that will only do you harm and bring shame in the long term. Addiction is the most subtle temptress you will come across and it is nearly impossible to identify as it wraps around your life. Please trying to steer clear of anything that can grab a hold of your independence.
Do people around you smoke? I smoked for about 8 years (starting at 15...) and found that it was both a stress relief and that a lot of my social interactions were with other smokers. We did "smoke breaks" often together. It was very difficult to unlink these concepts in my brain, and it only worked when I replaced the stress relief with coffee, and when I accidentally had to not see my smoker friends for a longer time (almost a year).
Everyone has triggers, and if you can figure out what yours are maybe it'll be easier to stop? For me it was stress management and the association of cigs = fun social interaction.
The problem is most teens who use Juuls by them from third parties instead of the actual company, so the restrictions prob won’t lower the rates that much
Valeria M thats why they're limiting bulk shipments. Just smoke weed like a normal highschooler.
ocean man fun story about weed: my friend was high during a code red drill and she thought she was going to the moon
Just get a real vape
Yeah but it helps their liability lol
I use juuls but not their actual pods, I use 4X. Most people in my area do. It won’t change anything aha
That's nice, but I can still buy Cotton Candy flavored Pinnacle Vodka at my local supermarket. LOL
Which is about 25 percent alcohol...
not if you're 14...
JUUL is age restricted at 18 or 21 in most states, but Shit happens.
a2pabmb2
That reminds me... I need to go out and get some of that....
@Carl so a 21-year-old can legally buy flavored vodka, and it has essentially ZERO addictive properties compared to nicotine products.... what is your point?
My question is, I get the whole empowering women things, but if you have a "man of the year" and you want to put a woman why not just do a woman of the year line instead. Or even a "person of the year." Seems a little weird to have an men only thing and multiple times a woman is the winner. Not trying to hate on women or anything, I just think a person of the year tag would be more fitting.
Don't forget that exclusively male-oriented things are considered bad.
Seems like men aren't allowed to have anything exclusively for them anymore. like an annoying younger sister, they have to peek in the clubhouse door and say "can I play too?" . And if your nice you say yes, but two weeks later she had remodeled the whole club, became the leader, invited all her friends in, seduced your friends and kicked you out because of your toxic masculinity.
I think it's trying to make a point; but I don't think "man of the year" was created to be sexist? I'm not not sure 😅. But I think it's like BuzzFeed's series on "questions for white people", yea some white people are racist, and that's terrible! But not all are; though it seems like because "racist" has been attached to being white, it's ok to generalize a whole ethnicity. If that makes any sense haha?
aidyl sllim: The term you’re looking for is “identity politics”, if I understand correctly.
@@hereticmoses Ikr, men are so oppressed in modern society. First it's endless rape allegations, any women who claims to have been raped should be ignored since it rarely happens anyway.
If cops are so scared for their lives that they wont bother trying to assess the situation they need to find another job.
xBluegamerx yo I was thinking the same shit or they gonna runaway like that cop did in parkland
xBluegamerx Cops are trained with a hardcore "us or them"mentally and if your not in a police uniform you are instantly seen as a hostile combatant. Then again you also have officers who are in a way closest homicidal and would happily take lives and hide behind that same fear for my life excuse and no real way to proof it in court cause judges generally take a cops word more seriously over a civilian.
@@darkabz2346 Well it's not so much they are trained that way, it's more like they develop that way because the training to become a cop is next to nothing, basically if you can pass a very basic written test followed by a obstacle course your in.
Yes, let's have no police force. That's sure to go great. Or are you, perhaps, suggesting we find people who aren't scared to die? Good luck with that.
xBluegamerx idk what state you live in, but I doubt those are the sole qualifications. where I live you have to be certified by the state to become a police officer. That certification requires 7 months of class work and physical fitness tests. Even then, that alone doesn’t guarantee a job. You then must be able to pass an extensive background check and psychological evaluation and then you have to continue classes for up to three months with the department you work for before you even get out on the road. Even after all that you can be denied further employment if you’re field training officer decides you don’t meet the qualifications
Feels like the family of Jemel should be sueing for a lot more than $1 million. He has a 9 month old and a newborn baby on the way and they just stole a lifetime of earnings from his whole family. That's worth a lot more than $1 million.
more like 10 million, then there's pain and suffering as well, how could anyone value his life so cheaply?
@EveryDay You forgot to add fifty years inflation, and future career progression. It would be a very rare person that stays at the one career level their whole life. Fifty thousand is mediocre for a full time job, remember, it's not take home pay, has to include the full gross and overtime. Additionally, there would be inflation, and he had another fifty years potentially which is Five million at a hundred k a year, then add inflation, easily gets you to 10 Million,. That's if they want to pay the REAL lost income potential for this family in a one off payment.
Amen to that.
How can a newborn baby be on the way?
EveryDay you forgot to add a human life that will never be given back to him, his family and friends. Yeah that’s worth way more than 50k a year for 20 years pal.
The whole juul thing is so dumb. I didn't see people calling for the ban of cigarettes when kids were smoking them in the early 2000s. The only reason they are targeting juul is bc they aren't lobbying Congress like cigarette companies
... yes its not like several cities banned smoking in public areas during the 2000s...
FACT. JUUL is extremely popular, but cigarettes are still the leading killer of Americans, lol. Why wouldn’t we implement more restriction there??
exactly some bull crap
Exactly the same minus the death.
1 JUUL pod has the nicotine content of almost an entire pack. While vaping certainly is safer than cigarettes, there are no long term studies to see the effects over time. Short term, safer, long term, we have no idea. Obviously won’t be causing cancer with the lack of tar etc, but with issues like popcorn lung being worked out there are probably more to be seen in the future. JUUL is much more popular than cigarettes were. I have no statistics to back that one up, I’ve just seen it. Edit: it amazes me that this is what they choose though, when current knowledge and data shows regular cigarettes and drinking to be significantly more deadly. Crazy. But like they said in the video, People who JUUL are more likely to try cigarettes. And if everyone is JUULing...

As a 21 year old juul smoker student these regulations are very frustrating. A vast majority of juul/ other e cig smoking college students I know prefer flavors like mango or other fruit/ deserts etc. I don’t know a single person that likes the tobacco flavors. Many of my friends and I got them bc when we were drunk we’d smoke cigs and be disgusted by ourselves the next day. But if they’re made less available or reduce flavors I don’t see why many people won’t turn back. My mother is quitting cigarettes and she even vapes candy flavors rather than traditional. Yes that what might make them more appealing to adolescents, but I think that’s because it makes them more appealing to the rest of us also.You can smoke something that tastes great, you don’t get smoker breath, or as much harm as cigs. Vaping is the lesser of 2 evils. I just don’t understand the effort we are putting into this rather than dealing with cigarettes themselves or idk maybe the opioid crisis? I don’t want to sound harsh here but 16 year olds with juuls isn’t really one of my big concerns rn. Highschoolers will always try to do degenerate shit theyre not supposed to and I’d rather have them vape than smoking cigs.
Radical solutions time
It's not going to be any harder for you to get those flavors if you have proper identification.
Issue is that there are a ton of children who are vaping that wouldn’t have touched a cigarette. Cigs are gross, but vaping isn’t
Welcome to your first steps in being an adult.
The real problem is escalation. One of the fda's main goals is to stop kids from smoking cigarettes. Kids smoke these tasty pods, which have the same amount of nicotine as a pack of cigarettes, then they get addicted. Kids are underdeveloped, abs more likely to get addicted. So they keep buying juul pods, but juuls are expensive, and is don't have money. So they move on to cigarettes because they are cheaper, and easier to get to. Then they are stuck with the bad effects of cigarettes. Also you encounter the dip problem, which is much worse in my opinion. I've see this happen on a regular basis, and I'm sure you have to.
I get that kids shouldn’t be smoking e cigarettes but WHERE ARE THEIR PARENTS. I feel like this year the government has had to step in to parent children (ie. Tide Pods). Like come on kids KNOW what they are doing. I have a hard time believing kids who smoke these don’t know that they’re not supposed to. I think these parents should be responsible for what their children are doing. I don’t know how they would be held accountable but I just know it’s the fault in lack of parenting not the company’s problem, in my opinion.
In my school, there’s a particular kid whose mom keeps finding out about his juul, taking it away, punishing him etc. But still, he finds more and more dangerous ways to get that nicotine. He’s addicted, and as long as he does it in school or not at home, his working mother has no idea.
Yana, to supervise teenagers and prevent them doing something that takes one minute to do and can be done anywhere and alone, means to have a parent at their side for 24 hours a day. Not only is this not possible, most people would find it offensive and it's counter-productive.
Yana Pavlovskiy my cousin hid his from his parents for months.
The country cannot stop parenting kids because its a fact that the majority of parents are not even 10% of what a parent should be and the country has to hope that more than half of them will grow up to be tax payers.
At the end of the day the government is concerned with the health and longevity of its future voters and tax payers. If they were concerned with the general well being of these kids (like a parent should) there would be a lot more socialist policies employed.

Ur right. That last story is infuriating and heartbreaking. That poster who talked about the “good guy with a gun” hit the nail on the head. So sad.
Hello Philip,
Watcher since 08-09, seldom do I comment. However, I have awoken from underneath my bridge to say that this entire episode, precisely the last 20-40 seconds of story 1,2,&4, exudes the collective values of everything this show has ever stood for. Whatever you ate or drank this morning, make it your new thing!
- A fan
I work in a smoke shop and a high majority of our customers are over 35. Menthol definitely isn't 35% of sales and black youth aren't the ones buying the flavored cigars either. It's 18+ to enter and we ID everyone under 40. Our customers LOVE the fun flavors and are not gonna be happy if they have to disappear because parents aren't paying attention to their kids. It's not ok. And I've been a menthol smoker for 40 years so they better not be discontinuing those! Yikes! I'm all about an age restricted area. Do that and make sure staff ID's. That solves the problem.
I don't see the shooting of the security guard as a blue on blue accident. They saw a black man with a gun and shot him without even verifying who he was. It's not OK. The officer should be on unpaid leave, not paid leave. Why does he get to sit home with pay when this security guard will never go home again.
I’m at 23-year-old who has been smoking pretty regularly since I was about 15 and I have now successfully quit most combustible cigarettes and use Juul as an alternative. I find that I prefer the mango flavor because it does not give me the bad taste in my mouth a traditional tobacco flavors do and that was the thing that help me the most in quitting traditional cigarettes. I would feel incredibly sad and if the option of a mango flavored tobacco alternative was no longer an option for me though I still understand that protecting young smokers from starting the habit in the first place is very important. I did find Juul’s new restrictions to ensure people buying their products are verified to be 21 years of age or more to be very heartening. Juul has taken over the market and I commend their commitment to ending the child smoking epidemic.
get a SMOK infinix and a 30mL bottle of Mango flavoured salt-nic juice at around 40-50mg/mL and fill your own pods. That will not only save you a ton of money over using the JUUL and their pre-filled pods, but will make it much more convenient as you get refills anywhere, anytime and you can also taper off your nicotine levels after a while to become less dependent on nicotine.
4:04 Didn't hear De Franco's words, I'm too busy thinking "What's George Clooney done?"
Firstly my sympathy goes out to the family of the security guard who was shot and killed. What I wanted to share was the perspective of someone from a country where guns are mostly entirely illegal. Stories like this feel wholly alien and incomprehensible. I, like most citizens here, have only even seen a firearm a handful of times in my life and always in the hands of trained police officers. I have never in my life met anyone who owns a gun. That leads to a culture where there is an almost entirely safe assumption if you (or a police officer) sees a civilian with a gun - they are almost certainly a dangerous criminal posing a serious threat and should be dealt with accordingly. I recognise all cultures are different and context is important. Equally banning firearms doesn't make everything perfect - we have a significant knife crime problem at the moment. But I wanted to share the perspective of someone with a very different societal experience.
@@Snobbishbumpkin Its not easy to get a gun if there are few guns overall, almost every illegal gun was once a legal one...when there are very few guns overall then getting a illegal one becomes very difficult and expensive.
I can echo this experience, sort of. I grew up in a country where firearms were 'controlled' but these laws weren't enforced, so gun violence was prevalent. I moved to Canada years ago, and ever since, I've felt so distanced from gun violence that I feel safe in my home and school now, I don't constantly worry about the safety of my family the way we all used to. I've never known anyone murdered in a shooting or gun-related death in Canada, but every once in a while I'll hear about someone brutally killed in their house or school in my home country and it breaks my heart that they never got the chance at a safe life the way I did.
JUUL ads and what flavors they sell is nothing next to the ads/commercials telling every to “ask your doctor if (drug name) is right for you” and the alcohol ads showing the young adults having so much fun. Feel like focusing on those two issues would help the youth a lot more than the vape pens people are hiding.
Your Casual Gamer those warnings aren’t enough and you can’t suggest that if someone has a health problem that the doctor won’t know the correct medications for them...no one needs an ad for the next big drug to hit the market or what bottle to drink to kick back this weekend, fact is all three are deadly and they should all be treated that way and just telling people to “please drink responsibly” doesn’t stop anyone from getting behind the wheel and hitting a parked car full of people...no one ever killed a family doing 90 mph because of a vape pen, honestly.
There needs to be less advertisements for ALL these products.
Your Casual Gamer we obviously disagree but enjoy your weekend Casual gamer and nice chat.
Please tell me yall are Canadians. So sweet.
le huynh lol didn’t see a point in getting ugly about a difference of opinion so maybe just adults that agree to disagree...and hope you enjoy your weekend as well ;)

I love that you are constantly changing your opinions based on new experiences like i really respect that (in consideration of “outrage news” sometimes having a valid source)
This most recent shooting incident just makes me recall my criminology professor lecturing to a 150+ student lecture hall in conservative Texas telling us how the "good guy with a gun" deal doesn't work. He was like, "Imagine there's an active shooter situation and you pull out your firearm because you can concealed carry on campus. The police arrive, see you with your weapon out, and what do you think is going to happen?"
So, why is candy flavored liquor fine but fruit flavored tabbaco products are such a big problem?
M C I think because you have be 21 to buy alcohol whereas you can be any age to buy this stuff? I think? I honestly don’t know
@@Durokdtrain You have to be 18 to buy tabacco products. Most stores around me have an 'under 40' rule, where they card you if you look under 40. Not that all employees follow that rule. At least it's 40 if I'm remembering correctly, the sentiment is the same though.
Also, It's far easier to walk out of a store with a bottle that's sitting openly in the grocery story than cigarettes that are only behind a cashier. Had many friends make a 'bottle run' in my late teens but I've never even heard of someone attempting the same for tobacco products.
Comment was all messed up when I came back but is fine when it go to edit it, don't know if it's like that for everyone but just in case a repost.
@Derek Matthews You have to be 18 to buy tabacco products. Most stores around me have an 'under 40' rule, where they card you if you look under 40. Not that all employees follow that rule. At least it's 40 if I'm remembering correctly, the sentiment is the same though.

@@fietsopa5551 I can see that argument, but I would argue there is far more risk for immediate harm with alcohol compared to cigarettes.
It just seems one sided to have no problem with liquor that could be seen as appealing to kids sitting in the middle of grocery stores yet there is a problem with tabacco products being sold only behind a cashier. Some going to the extent of only allowing cigarettes to be sold at a single register.
Seems to me there needs to be far more scrutiny on parents rather than the company making the products. There are many pre-existing barriers put up by society to restrict access to those under 18.

With the history of harassment and hate thrown at Serena, I get why people were somewhat put off by the quotations. BUT, once it was clarified that it’s somewhat of a trademark of a designer heavily associated with Serena, that should have cleared up any offense or anger. We have to stop being offended on behalf of people who aren’t offended themselves.
@Ruru Home how do they correct their actions? They didnt try to be offensive or provocative. people just got mad on behalf of someone else on a signature of an artist's work whose worked close with serena. You can't predict what people will be offended by and should never run a business like that.
Ruru Home are u stupid? The quotations are his thing. You got context yet you’re still angry. What IMPACT DO QUOTATION MARKS GIVE?
Ruru Home This is stupid, quotation marks aren’t inherently offensive and context is everything. The author didn’t say anything cruel about women, Serena, African Americans, or anyone in any way. To suggest that everyone needs to apologize because hypersensitive people are actively imagining things to be offended over by inserting intent is idiotic.
Ruru Home Just because you or anyone else is offended does not mean anyone has to fix anything. If the context is explained and you understand that nothing bad actually happened it should be up to those who were offended to accept it and move on.
I mean, I don't think it's offensive, but it's a bad magazine cover. You shouldn't need background information to appreciate a magazine cover, you should be able to pass by it at the checkout aisle and immediately understand the point of the cover.

I really dont think just banning tasty flavours will have as much impact as people think. Vaping culture has become too big and I really don't think kids will care that much if they move from a fruit flavour to something like mint or menthol, I know it didn't matter to me when I was in High school.
!
Agreed. It's too late because of the nicotine addiction and its "trendy" 😏 anyway Juul achieved its goal and is simply saving face with the pr stunt putting in measures FCC was getting ready to implement anyway.
Juul vaping was updated in this episode.
Facts
Restriction doesn't work, kids like to do the things they aren't supposed to. It's about education and good parenting. I'd imagine this won't impact half of them as their parents will buy them for their kids
Holy crap, did not see Juul responding like that? To me it's incredible. I have never seen a company openly changing things so radically. Fair enough - it's a trend, and there are loads of underage users already, but they are voluntarily making a change. Fair play to them
Trump vs Acosta reminded me of PM Questions! 😂
With the Juul ban, can’t someone make the same argument for flavored alcoholic beverages? Prohibition didn’t work... also shouldn’t the parents take some responsibility instead of having the government force a ban?
Prohibition was sell of ALL alcohol plus this is more of a ban due to it appealing heavily toward children
@@mexc7279 A deeper problem is this , how are kids getting hold of these devices unless retailers are not doing age verification checks like they should.
@@mexc7279 yeah cigarette companies used to do the same thing, using cartoons and jazzy commercials to appeal to younger audiences. And the government made them cut back on that back then.
Regardless of if it's safer, vapes still contain nicotine and that's just terrible for developing brains. Yes cigarettes are all kinds of terrible besides the nicotine, but the addiction is real and it's still not good for you. Also we have no idea what vapes do to a person in twenty, thirty, forty years. People used to think cigarettes were healthy. Now we know better.
I'm just worried for these kids. I'm glad the FDA is doing something.
@@mysticvirgo9318 They probably older people to buy it for them, not that complicated
Parents can only do so much. It's up to teens to start telling off vapers for a change, as most vaping is done at schools or areas teens gather.

As someone that used vaporizers to quit smoking, I want to say that this is a perfect balance. Flavors are the main reason I was able to quit smoking, so taking them away would be a huge blow to everyone that has already quit smoking using vaporizers.
However the sad thing is, it doesn’t matter what the FDA does. If kids want to smoke they will find a way to do it. It doesn’t matter what flavors are banned or even if vaporizers are banned. The kids that have started this are now addicted to nicotine and will continue to smoke regardless of what the FDA does. They’ll just move to cigarettes.
Welcome to 2018 where the internet looses it over quotation marks...

It's not only that they lose it over quotation marks but they continue to lose it even after being presented with context...
Using quotation marks in that way means something and wasn't correct in this case. No need for outrage, just Grammar Nazi type reaction. It did indicate Serena isn't a real woman; that was a stupid style choice.
And yea, one guy using quotation marks in his marketing, doesn't mean an editor shouldn't have said, "nope".

Police really need a significant, systematic overhaul to dramatically reduce this infuriating and terrifying trend of "shoot first, ask questions later". Pulling the trigger should never be your first instinct, it should be your last resort. Military personnel have far more restrictions and accountability when discharging a weapon - why do police, who deal with domestic threats (our very own citizens), get so much more leeway and have far less accountability for their actions? That's the opposite of what it should be.
It's a far rarer occurrence for a cop to accidentally fatally shoot the wrong person than it is for a gunfight to be decided by mere tenths of a second.
Shit happens man.

Can't see why stories like what happen in la grange dont get recognized but sad ones do. Its fucking pathetic how everyone hates cops till they need them. Right way everyone sees race and how it's always white on black or black on white. Why can't it just be a cop kills a security guard.
Imagine saying to Serena Williams "I was offended because it reminds me when people rudely refer to you as a man! You know, when people call you a man? It reminded me of that! But dont worry because I stood up for you on twitter" Then just stare at her grinning with self approval
Once people get upset about something, and are proved to be misinformed, they tend to not back down because it means they are wrong... and they can't be wrong!

I dont wanna be that guy, but the black mall cop thing, we had a similar incident in the neighboring city, old white guy though, never hit any major news outlets. It was a real tragedy, but what can you do? Ive seen the bodycam footage, it was a bad shooting. Unfortunately, in both these incidents, no one will be held responsible.
Thanks Phil, you made me go and buy a Juul before stock runs out
For the juul situation, they could've simply done the identification route without actually banning any other flavours.
Saying a grown person can't have their steak because baby can't chew it.
That phrase has never been more literal.
Not to mention the fact that any kid that uses Juul can simply order pods and whatever flavour and quantity they like to be delivered where they want by simply going online and ordering the stuff from China. Banning this will simply not work when you have sellers and buyers.
Mcaffee TV 1. How many do you seriously think are going to go that far for it, the answer is FEW. 2. That problem will always exist so if we are going to always think of that then what the hell is the point of trying?
TRUE, but kids will find a workaround for the identification route.
A lot of kids do it because it's either "cool" or they like the taste. By removing the flavours the kids like, they might think twice before doing something "cool", and if it's not in their flavour, and they don't like the flavour of the other ones, well they might stop.
Like I said, the kids will find a workaround for that identification filter juul put in place, but most of them probably still wouldn't go through the hassle of actually doing it, as it would probably involve getting somebody else's social security number.
But I do agree with you in the sense that, like what kurisu7885 said, "Saying a grown person can't have their steak because baby can't chew it."
On the other hand though, you're a grown ass person probably trying to stop smoking. If removing your favourite flavour of "smoke" doesn't incentivise you to stop smoking all together, well then you better go back to breathing straight cancer back into your lungs...
I think juul did a great job.
You can still buy the, just online or a age controlled area. It still seems like they would be pretty accessible for adults but makes it a major pain for kids, which is the goal
I am no fan of the tobacco industry and I haven’t ever been one to partake, but seeing a company take voluntary action as extreme as Juul just did... Thats a big win in my book.
Dude, nicotine companies used to do huge charities events . It's a pr stunt.
They just did it so they wouldn't be banned by the fda
It’s a self preservation move. It keeps the heat off of them.
Self preservation or not, I see it as a win. Making huge policy changes to make its own product more difficult and annoying to purchase is leagues different than hosting or participating in a charity event.
@@theezain they only did it due to fear of regulations not out of a goodness of their heart.

This has always been my concern with the "good guy with a gun" arguement. A cop just sees a GUY with a gun.
10:20 I'm not sure if it's just me or not but I hate the phrase "too little too late." What? So you're saying they shouldn't have even bothered? Some people you just can't win against.
It's their way of saying Juul needs to be punished regardless of what they try to do
@@vallahdsacretor4839 juul doesnt need to be punished though, they are a business, its up to american law to enforce public and social morality, or the consumers themselves
@@RiotBrosGaming Yeah, which it boggles my mind when people expect, and are then disappointed by, these corporations to act as a moral compass
Exactly. They seem to be forgetting that juul didn't HAVE to do anything. It's not their responsibility that kids are using their products. They could've just kept selling the flavours as they have every right to do so.
But now they are being pushed to stop selling flavours, which their customers aren't happy with, all because of some people who are too stupid to understand that kids don't vape because of the flavour.
I'm sure some of the phrase is an unwillingness to give thanks/praise/whatever you want to call it where some think it's due, but mostly emphasizing how inaction before brought everyone to a place of no return, and suddenly trying to make changes when things have already gone to shit just isn't good enough. If we start acting on climate change and sea level rise for example after southern US cities start sinking into the ocean, then yeah we don't deserve any praise for acting because we ignored the problem when we could have still solved it without such dire effects.
I am a former smoker, & quit only because I got a progressive lung disease that will eventually kill me. My lung disease was not from smoking, it was from exposure to black mold that the negligent Mall owner where I owned a business didn't deal with. But as a result I had to quit smoking & took a course at the hospital to learn how to look after myself with this illness. It is a course everyone should take; it taught me alot about how vulnerable lungs are, not the least of which is a little thing called cilia. These are little hair like things that sweep backwards to keep things we've inhaled out of our lungs. 1 cigarette paralyzes them for an hour, leaving virtually an open pipeline for carcinogens etc. to enter & attack your lungs. Most smokers often don't wait longer than an hour before having another cigarette so for those people their cilia remains paralyzed, making them more suseptable. I was a very light smoker, I rarely even smoked 1 cigarette a day. But although I truly enjoyed smoking, learning how it puts you at risk has caused me to not miss it at all.
That last story is heartbreaking and infuriating.
But Phill dont you know? Context does not matter in todays day and age as people use their feelings as facts!
*Insert Phill’s Merch Plug*
Guy Allan I read that as insert Phil’s butt plug 😂
I honestly never heard of Juul until about two months ago.
What ever happened to police using non lethal weapons before going right to guns? I am saddened and sickened by this.
On the Juul and FDA story, first off I have to give props to Juul for taking action on their own accord. They're taking actions AFTER reports, and just before FDA rulings, yes, but regardless of how late it is, they're still taking action in a well thought-out way, and they are NOT just saying they'll do something. They've got a clear and, I feel, good plan laid out, with clearly defined actionable steps they're immediately starting to take. That is commendable, and well deserving of recognition; creating an actionable plan and starting to follow through with it is something even the best of us struggle with in our daily lives, not to mention a massive company with hundreds of millions or billions of sales, and tons of money floating around. It's important to recognize their efforts!
That being said, I can understand where people are coming from when they say it's too little too late; Juul has been marketed very favourably towards kids, with both their commercials and flavours. These changes have come after they've secured their market well, so I can understand being a bit upset over that. However, I still think any action in a positive direction is a good thing.
On the FDA's actions, I agree with and support all of them. I've never smoked or vaped before in my life, but my parents, grandparents, other relatives, and many of my friends have; and it's absolutely disgusting what it does to you. It's wickedly addictive, so much so it'll physically make you sick when you try to quit it, not to mention it kills you, and it's just plain disgusting to be around. I'd be very happy with cigarettes and the like being banned completely, though I realize that's a terrible idea and not at all fair to the people who smoke. I can live with grown ass adults choosing to kill themselves in a disgusting, expensive, and horrifying way; but kids shouldn't be smoking, so anything to help prevent that is a positive in my eyes.
I feel like while the whole JUUL thing is on the right track, why is the FDA focusing on nicotine so much when there are communities suffering from opioid addictions?????????
Because kids are able to access it.
I wish they were this concerned about the water...
@@zendehart9816 kids can access cigarettes and alcohol way more easier than these e-cig stuff I feel they just doing this hoping that its gonna faze out the e-cig nation to get people to go back to those stuff (that is 100% worse)

Thanks, Phil! Jemeel was from my neck of the woods, I'm in Blue Island and Manny's is just a hop, skip and jump away. My mother and I were very disturbed to hear this news because police are pretty decent around here. Unfortunately it can't be that everywhere and I think at this point, these types of disturbing shootings dealing with the police make the situations uniquely miserable every time. This man shouldn't have had to die. This was another unreasonable use of extreme force when simply listening and really observing, could have helped.
Yep, Worth here. Just one of many. Beyond infuriating. I hope he gets it like Van Dyke.
Thank you for not making it a race issue. Yes this should be punished as a terrible lack of judgement, but we will probably learn more when the bodycam comes out
Jemeel was a hero, whether or not this shooting was racially motivated, that much is true.
There is a lot to be seen from the stand point of the public and whether it was or wasn't about was about race, the fact stands that this DOES NOT look good. I think not taking the time to assess that situation and being so hair trigger, still made what was a somewhat controlled situation escalate, to the nth degree. That man shouldn't be dead, plain and simple. Like I said before, he was supposed to used ALL his senses. That includes what many would consider, common sense.
Phil said eyewitnesses said he had that man in a DEFENSIVE POSITION, which was, man on the ground, his knee in the man's back, gun pointed at the man, on the ground. You mean to tell me, extreme for wasn't used, when a TRAINED OFFICER sees with their own 2 eyes, this position?! Yes, extreme force was used!
On the JUUL topic today. I started smoking cigarettes in high school, and a huge part of what made it cool was that it was "adult". Just like how rum and other things of that nature were cool it was because things were an acquired taste. Yes just a part. My group (5 of us, but there were a lot more in my area(more than I can count on hands and toes)) thought the more "tobacoee" the better. I smoked the boldest thing i could find, the more tobacco flavored the better, kamel reds were a delicacy (yes that flavor is spelled with a k not c). When I started vaping I chose tobacco flavors. Now I don't at all, my favorite flavor has unicorn in the name. These products are not and never will be marketed to kids, what it is is an attempt to be cool to the older millenials that as adults still watch things like bojack horsemen or southpark, or even just the meme savy of us. Any kids getting these products are because of clearks not checking ids, or like me as a kid older people buying them.
Important fact, e-cigs are not 100% safe. What they are is a "safer"alternative. Adults should be able to buy whatever they want as long as they are aware of the health concerns, and the flavor of that thing should not be mandated by the government at all. If kids buy from an adult, that adult should go to jail. Kids will make mistakes, but there is no legislation that could stop that.
Sorry for the longer than normal comment! Love your stuff and always have sxe phil
It was very similar for me, but I didn't want to be cool. I actually bid that I smoked for the first couple of years.
Completely agree. I (and pretty much everyone else) smoked in high school and while I had a menthol phase, i'd still have smoked the same amount without the flavor available. The flavor ban won't do much. p.s. Bojack Horseman (and etc.) is not really a kind cartoon. :D
I smoked all through high school too, hated the taste but the addiction was strong. When I discovered vaping, my friend had jolly rancher flavored juice, I was super quick to jump ship to that. And it's been so much easier to work my way down from the addiction since I can slowly drop the nicotine level, I started at 18mg and am at 6mg now. As you said kids are always going to find a path to drugs to look cool, I see the same amount of kids vaping now as I saw smoking when I was in school, it's not the flavor it's the look. I think stronger ID checking and discouraging bulk selling to consumers would help a lot, rather than killing one of the most appealing parts of vaping to those coming from cigarettes.
I completely agree...personally speaking teens are going towards the pod system industry which doesnt use crazy packaging or intricate designs. All the stuff teens are going for are nic salts...not to mention kids are gonna rebel regardless...
just parents not parenting
What they don't tell you about the Roberson incident was that it occurred in a dark alley at around 4am. What Roberson was wearing that night is still in question but most reports say that he was wearing mostly black in a dark alley. He was carrying a gun that he didn't have licenses to carry. The club didn't not have proper permits for many different aspects, one being that they should not have been selling alcohol as the permit needed for them to expired the month before. It is all seems like a bad situation that is going to get a good officer's career destroyed because it seems like everyone is going to pull the race card on him.
"Our intent was never to have youths use JUUL..."
Sounds nice but I have considerable experience in corporate business, so I'll translate what that actually means.
"Our intent was never to have youths use JUUL... past the point where we received too much negative media and government attention. Then we want to preemptively stop promoting to youths as a facade of giving any kind of shit past our profit margins and market share".
While I'm sure it was never explicitly said to market to kids and possibly wasn't their original intent, I can swear to you that once they saw the success of it with kids and realized they're not directly breaking any laws, they amped up their marketing to endear the product to kids.
Until now when it's always smarter to self regulate vs wait for government regulation.

Personally believe any cop who murders an innocent person, even by accident, should be immediately terminated and receive jail time after a court hearing.
My reasoning is this happens too often without consequence. And while some officers may not deserve it, if this is a standard then many others will think twice before ever firing their gun.
They'll wonder if this is worth risking their own life on.
I disagree. If a guy has a gun, and its possibly threatening, you have to make a decision in a matter of milliseconds, otherwise you or a fellow officer or an innocent civilian dies. You don't want cops to second guess in a situation where they absolutely need to use lethal force, and that second-guessing costs a life.
I think the best solution is enhancing officers situational analysis at a glance. Seeing a situation, analyzing it, and taking the correct course of action within a second.
@@jynexe3056 I'd agree if too often cops haven't murdered so many innocent people. While there should be more training, real consequences should be enacted as well and this is something that can be enacted a lot quicker and more cost effectively than a whole revamping of their training systems
It's a general idea of "is ruining my life worth the risk of ruining this other person's?"
@@Crazelord91 Yes, they should, but only if they can prove it was a homicide rather than a bad call
@@jynexe3056 The officers who brought in Nikolas Cruz, Dylan Roof, Robert Bowers, and countless others didn't seem to be scared of the person holding a weapon they just used to murder several people. Add to that the fact that the cop shot in the "victim's" vicinity ("victim" meaning the shooter who Jemel was pinning down), and this seems like an absolutely unfit officer at best, and a racially-motivated murder at worst. In any event, that cop should be fired simply for being bad at his job, like any other cop who freaks out so much that they kill an innocent person.
Police work isn't for everyone, and if an officer proves unfit to serve in that capacity then they deserve to be fired, and if they've shot an innocent person then their pension should go to the family of the victim. I have a feeling that would also help increase situational awareness among police officers.
@@christophergibbs2616 I think you're right, but there needs to be a bit more nuance.
For example, if there's a case where the officer panicked and shot someone they shouldn't have, that's grounds for dismissal, something equivalent to a dishonorable discharge from the army. However, if the intent was to kill the person for any other reason (ie racial, political, economic, etc reasons), that should be a dishonorable discharge with a civilian murder trial after. The trick is the prosecutor has to prove intent, which prevents those who make an honest mistake from being tried as a murderer, but still provides a punishment for failure to do your duties correctly, but it also treats those who use the position to murder someone the same as a murderer
As long as local vapor shops are safe from these regulations on flavors. I think that it's a good compromise.
We just need to make schools Juul-free zones. Then people cant use them in schools. Then some common sense Juul laws.
gizno126 true but it isn't so easy to stop it. There are plenty of times kids hide in bathrooms and other obscure places as classes are in session. A law banning from school is a start but it certainly won't stop it.

Ah yes, because you are 100% allowed to do something illegal in schools.

@@AG-lx6re so youre telling me that changing the colours and pictures all of a sudden its gonna change childrens habits?
if they want to vape they were already on the road to smoking anyway
why make them smoke cigarettes instead
its easier to get cigarettes to begin with why make that the only option they have to choose from
I agree. I do have a fear that a lot of kids who vape will switch to cigarettes
@@900bz
the problem was that it encouraged even kids who weren't going to ever smoke because of fear of the dangers of smoking to start vaping. because vaping is -assumed to be- safer than actually smocking old school.
personally where i'm from i have never seen anyone vaping let alone kids vaping. i guess the future hasn't reached us yet.
THE16THPHANTOM u got me there but it seems it would be a very small percentage of people?

And thats where I'm gonna end todays show~!"
it was so unexpected I laughed out loud
My sister is 14, and I talked with her about Juul and how many kids are using them at her school. She said there are more kids using e cigarettes than kids not using them. And honestly, she told me parents buy them for their kids so they "stay out of trouble" and they think they are safe. So the ban on the age restriction is good on Juuls part, we gotta get the parents informed.
Banning vape flavor pods is not the job of the government, it is the job of parents to take initiative, instead of relying on the government to do their job.
Gorilla Man ya, cuz teens regularly allow parents to know about their life. (sarcasm btw)
So I guess fentenal should be legal then?????? You're logic is flawed
@@ontariomotorsport7038 yes it should be, so should all drugs. Just make sure people know before taking it.
No Jack. Your logic is flawed. That is both a straw man and slippery slope fallacy. That being said, many people would agree that even severe drugs should be legalized in a free country. That is because if one's actions does not effect you, others, or the nation, the government should not be able to intervene. Obviously driving under influence is different, as it effects others, but what someone chooses to do behind closed doors, even if it is wrong, should not result in jail time. I am not arguing that people should do drugs, as me personally, as well as my future kids would do all it takes to make sure that drug use would not be involved in our family, but what I am saying is that these decisions should not be the government's responsibility. Better parenting (or better guardian protection) is more important.
@@drunkrussian100 bingo!
Wow relative to some of the choices they had, the FDA's mandate is actually some of the most logical legislation we've had in years. Shocking, honestly.
noxabellus especially under this administration
