Did you know three cigarettes could get one addicted? Every time one takes a
            
             puff of a cigarette they're playing a dangerous game with life. I always wondered, why
            
             are cigarettes so deadly, what is in cigarettes; if people know they're deadly then why do
            
             they still smoke them; finally why does the government allow people to buy them when
            
             they can kill you?(12) Every time one smokes a cigarette it's like putting a gun to your head
            
             and pulling the trigger with out knowing if the gun is loaded or not. If we could vote to
            
             make cigarettes illegal then 80% of the smokers in the United States will most likely vote
            
             no.
            
             Cigarettes are very unhealthy. If you knew what is in cigarettes you would
            
             think twice about even touching them. The basic substances are nicotine, tobacco, and
            
             TAR. Yes TAR that black smelly stuff that you have on your roof, in the streets, and if
            
             you smoke in your lungs. Some other substances used to make cigarettes are: uranium,
            
             water, carbon dioxide. These chemicals are also used to make nuclear bombs. I guess
            
             smokers enjoy smoking nuclear bombs. Some side effects of smoking are cancer,
            
             thickening of the blood, thinner and smaller arteries, and cancer of the vocal cords. You
            
             will have to talk out of a microphone in you're neck, and could cause constant Bronchitis.
            
             Not only has that but Tobacco use during pregnancy reduced the growth of babies during
            
             pregnancy. Smaller babies may not catch up in growth after birth, and the risks of infant
            
             illness, disability, and death are increased. Your children are twice as likely to smoke if
            
             you do. Half of all premature deaths among life-long smokers result from tobacco use.
            
             Addiction is probably the worst part. Before I explain what addiction is like
            
             I'm going to tell you about the process of addiction. 1. You light the cigarette. 2. You
            
             smoke two or three. 3. ...
