There is a new business on Main Street in Trenton, Florida, and I
think the citizens of Gilchrist County should take a careful look inside. They may not like what they find.
A few weeks back Backwood Vapors quietly opened its
doors. Initially, the store modestly
advertised “E-cigs” scribbled in marker on a cardboard sign. In fact, the only other sign in the window
advertised a local circus… an odd choice for a store that should only be
catering to adults.
However, this is clearly not intended to be a modest store
dealing in electronic drug delivery devices like e-cigarettes. The owner has big plans. The store is going to be a combination vaping
lounge and electronic gaming hall. By
the owner’s own admission, he does not plan on restricting the age of his
patrons. In fact, he doesn’t even have
the age-restriction signs in his store mandated by Florida’s new e-cigarette
law.
This is the owner’s eleventh shop in North Florida. As a Lake City resident, my guess is that he
doesn’t really have the best interests of Gilchrist County’s youth at
heart. In fact, pictures from his own Backwood
Vapors Facebook should make every parent in town question his intent.
Leaders in Gilchrist County should take a strong stand on regulating
this type of business before another generation of teenagers is needlessly
addicted. He can choose to experiment on
his own kids, but you cannot turn a blind eye when he tries to experiment on your
kids.
Wow is just the simple word that may explain that how much I liked it. It was nicely stuffed with the material I was looking for. It’s great to be here though by chance.
