Smoking Essay, Research Paper

I feel that there should be laws against

smoking. Right now there are laws against buying them. You have to be 21

to buy cigarette. But my question is if you have to 21 why do people under

21 have possession of cigarette?

We all already know that smoking is bad

for you. On the news all the time they have something about smoking and

why it is so bad for you. Even on the cigarette box there is a surgeon

general message. This message is a note saying that Cigarette are hazardous

to your health. But still millions of people still are smoking. I see it

like this… If they put a label on a cigarette box saying “These will

eventually kill you” people will still smoke it. We all know the dangers

of smoking, why not put a law out to make it illegal?

I think the reason people are not comprehending

that smoking is so bad for you, is because they are already addicted and

they dont care what it does to them. But if a law made it illegal to sell.

Then many people would not have access to cigarettes. So they could not

smoke and millions of lives would be saved each year. Smoking produces

lung cancer that eventually kills you. Your lungs turn black and you can

barely breath. Well to me the sound of that makes me sick, and just saying

that makes me not want to smoke.

I feel if the government wants to save

lives. They should pass a law banning smoking very very soon. But our government

is to worried about little side effects and problems, such as riots, and

people going crazy. That they wont pass the law.
