vape shop are raging with its "highly offensive" name.The new shop called The Vapeist opened earlier this week in Cornwall.After opening their doors, The Vapeist's owners have been met with major backlash by local residents for its poor taste name, with many raising that it sounds like "rapist", reports Cornwall Live.Shop owners Anton Perrins, 34, and his cousin Chris Anderson, 31, have said they will stick with the name and prove to people that they are "good guys" despite the negative feedback.Some living near the shop have warned that this is not good enough as they raised the issue with their local council.The cousins said that they meant no offence by the name and have forked out thousands renovating the building and buying branded supplies for the store.Business owners Anton and Chris said that they took on the project of refurbishing the property as they wanted to invest in the town centre and revive similar unused buildings.Anton also said they believe the imagination behind the controversial name was very just.He said: "The truth is that people who vape are refereed to as 'vapeists'. It wasn't intended that way at all and it stunned us a little bit that people thought that."People were saying the name was made in bad taste, that it could be offensive and that there must have been better options."A few people have been less critical and said it wouldn’t be their name of choice but that's fine.
