Vaping Statistics and Safety White Paper By Brad McLaughlin CEO of BudTrader.com

noreply@blogger.com (BudTrader) — Tue, 19 Nov 2019 23:19:00 +0000

As of 2018 over 41,000,000 people actively vaped in the US and by 2021 that number will be 55,000,000. It’s a fair estimate that roughly 42,000,000 people currently vape as of November 15, 2019 in the US.

Reference: https://www.bbc.com/news/business-44295336

As of November 15, 2019, 42 people have died from vaping.

Reference: https://www.foxnews.com/health/vaping-death-toll-42-illnesses-reported

Meaning if you vape, you have a:

1 in around a 1,000,000 chance of death due to vaping

42,000,000 people who vape in the US as of November 15, 2019

42 deaths due to vaping in the US as of November 15, 2019

42/42,000,000 = 1,000,000 to 1 chance of death due to vaping

399 deaths in 2017 from plane crashes - roughly 10 x as likely to die in a plane v vaping

1 out of 1,222,000 chance of death by lightning v chance of death from vape 1 out of 1,000,000

1 out of 77 chance of death from car crash v chance of death from vape 1 out of 1,000,000

1 out of 77 chance of death from firearm v chance of death from vape 1 out of 1,000,000

1 out of 53 chance of death from poison v chance of death from vape 1 out of 1,000,000

1 in 34 chance of death from alcohol or drugs v chance of death from vape 1 out of 1,000,000

1 in 821 chance of death from a fire v chance of death from vape 1 out of 1,000,000

1 in 4 chance of death from heart disease v chance of death from vape 1 out of 1,000,000

1 in 11,500,000 chance of death from shark attack v chance of death from vape 1 out of 1,000,000

Reference: https://www.cars.com/articles/are-the-odds-ever-in-your-favor-car-crashes-versus-other-fatalities-1420682154567/

Reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shark_attack

Vaping is as dangerous as getting struck by lightning or crashing in and airplane 10 times. You’ll most likely die from alcohol, drugs, heart disease, firearms and car crashes thousands of times before you die from vaping, statistically speaking. The 42 deaths due to vaping are tragic but they were also 100% preventable and could even be called a statistical anomaly considering that 42,000,000 vapers have consumed billions and billions of vape cartridges this year alone. I’m willing to admit that even 1 death is too many deaths due to vaping and that the guilty parties need to be brought to justice. I’m willing to admit that more research is needed to study the long term effects of vaping. But I’m unable and unwilling to say today that vaping is dangerous for adults.

BudTrader.com is donating medical marijuana to federal employees in need.

noreply@blogger.com (BudTrader) — Wed, 13 Nov 2019 15:24:00 +0000

Original Article Here

The government shutdown may be entering its second month with no clear end in sight, but one noble cannabis website has decided to lend a hand to some of the 800,000 furloughed federal workers who aren't getting paid—by offering them free medical weed for as long as the shutdown lasts.

Online marketplace BudTrader.com, the so-called "Craigslist of weed," pledged this week to donate bud to government employees struggling to afford their medical marijuana, the Hill reports.

God Bless all Federal Employees, God Bless the Cannabis Community and God Bless the United States of America.

Comic-Con Case Closed: BudTrader CEO, Super Yacht Charter Couple Settle Dueling Suits

noreply@blogger.com (BudTrader) — Wed, 13 Nov 2019 15:19:00 +0000

POSTED BY KEN STONE

A super yacht vanishes at Comic-Con. A marijuana mogul sues after losing the party boat. The charter company owners counter sue, alleging slander and emotional distress.

with a small monthly contribution

Become a supporter

This week, the Vista Superior Court case was dismissed at the request of both sides — BudTrader CEO Brad McLaughlin and Lake and Gemma Rickolt, doing business as San Diego Marine Services and Sol Luna Expeditions.

McLaughlin has said he lost nearly $100,000 when the Rickolts took the yacht back from Fifth Avenue Landing next to the San Diego Convention Center before he could host celebrities and potential investors on Saturday night of the July 2017 Comic-Con.

The Rickolts said in an April 2018 countersuit that McLaughlin had lied about being a Comic-Con vendor and broke rules for use of the 120-foot yacht Liquidity. The charter owners said they suffered bad press.

McLaughlin — whose “Craigslist of weed” is based in Encinitas — said in a statement via email that a settlement was reached March 15.

“We’re very [happy] with the outcome,” he said. “BudTrader will be returning to San Diego Comic-Con for our fourth consecutive year with an off-site activation and after party.”

But Charles “Chuck” Gossage of Solana Beach, attorney for the Rickolts, disputed the characterization of the outcome.

“The case was dismissed for nothing. So that ought to tell you something,” Gossage said in a phone interview. “[McLaughlin] said it settled very favorably for him? It wasn’t, but that’s OK.”

Both sides signed a confidentiality agreement on settlement details — although they disagreed on its size, with McLaughlin calling it “lengthy” and Gossage portraying it as “less than one paragraph.”

The breach of contract/warranty case was barreling toward a May 17 jury trial in front of Judge Jacqueline Stern but was formally canceled Tuesday — 473 days after being filed in January 2018.

The Rickolts filed their countersuit in April 2018. They sought unspecified economic, noneconomic, special and punitive damages along with attorney fees and others costs.

Touted as the “Greatest PR Stunt of the Century,” the BudTrader boat parties adjacent to Comic-Con promised to attract “Hip Hop Stars, former NFL and NBA athletes… major cannabis investors and cannabis friendly celebrities.”

Comic-Con celebs could “rub elbows with A-List VIPs and ‘the world famous BudTrader Babes.’” McLaughlin paid $44,250 for three days’ use of the yacht.

But days after the boat was taken back, McLaughlin sent email saying: “BudTrader.com has engaged a TOP Beverly Hills law firm to punish all our enemies, known and unknown. We will not rest until we have recovered all damages associated with our early and illegal ejection from Fifth Avenue Landing and Comic-Con. We will not be stopped; we are one.”

In her suit, however, Gemma Rickolt said she was verbally abused after boarding the yacht about 4:38 p.m. July 20, 2017, and observed McLaughlin “intoxicated as he seemed overly sweaty; he struggled to make eye contact and seemed on edge.”
[contextly_sidebar id=”6qFmJhvjut4FcyDfaPxD2egfeeBQFYXB”] The Rickolts said the Fifth Avenue Landing dock master ordered the boat out by 10 a.m. July 22, 2017, the countersuit said, adding that Gemma noticed “marijuana all over the galley table as well as THC-infused edibles and marijuana cookies strewn throughout the yacht, all in violation of federal and state law regarding including state open container laws regarding marijuana on vessels.”

They objected to a beer keg’s presence as well — when only canned beer was permissible and other drinks would have to be in plastic glasses, the suit said.

“Moreover, [the Rickolts] and the yacht crew felt threatened for their safety and the safety of the yacht,” the suit said, alleging that McLaughlin “intentionally and wrongfully made slanderous and disparaging comments to various individuals, media outlets, reporters, editors, and/or trade magazines … as an intentional publicity stunt … with the purpose of specifically causing damage” to the Rickolts.

In May 2018, McLaughlin denied lying about being a Comic-Con vendor.

“If I had a booth,” he said, “I would have just manned our booth and I wouldn’t have rented a super yacht.”

He also denied being intoxicated.

“I did not drink during our event, and not that it matters but I have not had a sip of alcohol in 10 years,” he said. “I prefer cannabis.”

BudTrader.com Launches Save the Weed, Save The World Campaign as Arctic Temperatures Grip the Nation

SANTA MONICA, CA - January 31, 2019 - BudTrader, the largest cannabis, social media platform is pleased to announce the launch of our “Save the Weed, Save the World” campaign. We announced via a Facebook Post that we will be sending 300 hoodie sweatshirts and 300 beanies to volunteers, who are members of the cannabis community in Chicago to be distributed to people in need

In addition, for every sweatshirt, hoodie and beanie sold in the BudTrader Store the brand will give one of the same product to someone in need during record breaking freezing temperatures crippling more than 75% of the Country. All pieces are rated for warmth.

Cold weather is currently gripping most of the country during the ongoing Polar Vortex, a weather phenomenon that is causing temperatures to dip to below-Arctic levels in many parts of the United States. As many as eight deaths have already been reported to be connected to the Midwest’s dangerously cold weather system, according to The Associated Press.

“Let’s show the world just how compassionate the cannabis community can be,” said BudTrader CEO Brad McLaughlin in a statement on Facebook. “People are freezing to death. People are dying. This is serious. We’re sending 300 hoodies and 300 beanies to Chicago and matching every order on hoodies, long-sleeved shirts and beanies. You get a sweatshirt and beanie, someone in need is going to get one too. We can all sleep a little better at night knowing we did something good for our fellow human beings. Our campaign motto is ‘Save the Weed, Save the World’, but it’s not just a motto. It’s at the core of BudTrader. The cannabis community came together on BudTrader. Theirs over 2 million of us now that are connected. Together the cannabis community will save the world in 5 years. Were organized and we're selfless and combined with Cannabis/Hemp, the most powerful plant on earth, there's nothing we can’t accomplish together,“ said McLaughlin.

Each piece of apparel from the new BudTrader Give 1 Get 1 Collectors Edition bears the brand’s Green and White logo, and is emblazoned with the slogan “SAVE THE WEED, SAVE THE WORLD”.

Pot website offers free medical marijuana to government workers amid shutdown

Pot website offers free medical marijuana to government workers amid shutdown

BY JUDY KURTZ - 01/22/19 12:51 PM EST

https://thehill.com/blogs/in-the-know/in-the-know/426426-pot-website-offers-free-medical-marijuana-to-government-workers

Another business is joining those aiming to ease the pain of the partial government shutdown for federal workers — a marijuana marketplace says it’s giving away free weed.

BudTrader.com, which describes itself as the “largest online cannabis marketplace” and has been dubbed the "Craigslist of weed," will offer free medical marijuana to government workers who can’t pay because of the shutdown.

The shutdown — which affects an estimated 800,000 federal workers and has stretched on for more than a month — stems from disagreements between President Trump and congressional Democrats over his request for more than $5 billion in funding for a border wall separating the United States and Mexico.

“I don’t think federal employees are getting enough love and support, in these tough times, we want to extend the offer of a donation of medical cannabis to any federal worker affected by the shutdown,” BudTrader CEO Brad McLaughlin said in a Tuesday news release.

The company said it’s working with an attorney to “ensure that all cannabis donations given to federal employees are confidential and compliant with California Cannabis adult use laws and regulations.”

The site said it will donate “the maximum legal allowable amount of cannabis” to any affected government employees.

Several companies and organizations have offered free goods and services to government employees struggling during the partial shutdown. Celebrity chef José Andrés opened up a pop-up restaurantoffering free meals, while Kraft announced a grocery store pop-up filled with its products.

Crowdfunding website GoFundMe said last week that federal worker have launched more than 1,500 campaigns since the shutdown began.

BudTrader Welcomes MMA Star to Board

noreply@blogger.com (BudTrader) — Fri, 18 Jan 2019 11:30:00 +0000

IG: @sdcannablogger

Southern California-based cannabis tech company BudTrader.com recently announced via their Instagram account a new addition to their Board of Directors. MMA star Ian “Uncle Creepy” McCall is joining NFL star Marvin Washington on BudTrader’s board.

McCall is no stranger to BudTrader, having grown up in Southern California with CEO Brad McLaughlin. According to The Marijuana Journal, the two have been getting into shenanigans since their early childhood.

“In 4th grade, Ian almost got us kicked out of summer camp. He convinced me to sneak out to meet girls in the middle of the night,” McLaughlin told The Marijuana Journal. “We got caught by a Junior Counselor and pulled in to the Camp Director’s office. Somehow, we were able to talk our way out of trouble that night! Ian and I have always made a great team. Like Kobe and Shaq!

Well, maybe not Kobe and Shaq…

The former UFC champ was also pretty stoked to announce the news via his Instagram.

It’s not just a childhood bond that drove McCall to invest in BudTrader. He believes very strongly in the platform, as he told The Marijuana Journal:

I have been a cannabis patient and advocate for some time, even before it was popular to admit it. Cannabis is going to grow into a 100 billion dollar industry, and I want to get in on the green rush but I also want to help people. To me, BudTrader is the platform that helps people make money but they also help people. I told Brad I believe he and BudTrader are going to save the world. Watch out Facebook and Google – BudTrader is going to be not only the biggest cannabis platform, but the biggest social media platform too, soon enough.

McLaughlin has been making waves in the political spectrum recently, lobbying for cannabis legalization with President Trump and some of Washington, D.C.’s most prominent lawmakers. He’s also had a successful San Diego Comic-Con offsite and is determined to take the cannabis industry into the mainstream.
