The 2014 article Why e-cigarettes should be banned from minors by Gary A. Emmett supports the belief that e-cigarettes have negative effects on health and should be inaccessible for minors.

Emmett’s article from the Philly news website was chosen for its representativeness principle, reflecting on his rhetorical output.…

Because if he does not sell the pack someone else will.…
