Cigarette is a habit forming drug. It has more social problems. In my opinion, cigarette should be illegalized and banned to sell for 3 reasons. First, cigarette is a habit forming drug. It does not good for health. Smokers have an occasion to have cancer. Smoke of cigarette is danger for people near a smoker. Smokers take offence in society because smoke of cigarette is dangerous for everybody. Moreover smoke of cigarette is very dangerous for expecting mother and her child. Expecting mother who smoke, her child has occasion to be defective. Second, smoking loss money unnecessarily. Smoking does not have an advantage for smoker. People who smoke as habit they want to smoke for more everyday then loss more of money uselessly. The teenage who don't have income when they begin to smoking cigarette they spend money of their parents and it may cause commit larceny. Finally, cigarette is a starting point to be other addicted drugs and it a cause of other social problems. Most of people who addicted to drugs begin by cigarettes and it has many of social problems. The teenage are person to develop nation in the future. If most of teenage are addicted to smoking the nation can not develop at one's best. In conclusion, cigarettes are a habit forming drug. It does not good for health. It harms and it does danger for smokers and near people. It wastes and useless. It has more social problems. We should illegalize and ban trading it. What do you think about banning cigarette and should it be illegalized?

Nowadays, smoking is very popular with people in the world. As far as I know, cigarttes is bad for our bodies. Many people died for cigarttesevery year. Although the government give some advices to smoker, they still smokes in anytime or anywhere when they want to smoke. Finally, cigarettes cause cancer and destroy their bodies. So cigarettes should be banned.

The government tax cigarettes so they make more money, that's why they don't ban it. My area doesn't have much smoke though.

Smoking is not good for our health because cigarette contains a lot of nicotine...
It can not only damage our lungs but also the respiratory system.
Also, smelled second-hand smoke will have influence.
Do not smoke when you are pregnant.

So,we have to pay attention to it...
Let's against cigarette and say "No"!

Hello, I�m a college student. I think that smoking is dangerous to our health. And, cigarette harmful to smokers and it affect to other people too. Still, a lot of people don�t stop the cigarette. There are people who can�t stop it even if they want to stop it. Because I have never smoked the cigarette, smoker's feelings aren�t understood. The cigarette is high the price, and smell. If the cigarette is smoked to it too much, it is likely to get cancer.
Please find another being able to relax though it is likely to be able to relax by smoking the cigarette. Finally, for me to oppose it most is to smoke in one's teens. Please value the body that still grows up more. A healthy body is the best!!

We know the dangers of smoking.
Heart disease , stroke and lung cancer are the common.

Smoking is also a major cause of cancers of the mouth, kidney,bladder,
pancreas and esophagus.

Tobacco has sixty chemicals that cause cancer.

Cigarettes are not the only danger. Smokeless tobacco and cigars also
have been linked to cancer.

Smoking harms not only the smokers but also people around smokers.

Secondhand smoke is a serious problem.
It also causes cancer.

I hate secondhand smoke.
I always have to avoid smokers on the street, public places.

Tobacco has nicotine
Nicotine gives pleasure to smokers.
Nicotine is a poison.

The body grows to depend on nicotine.
When a former smoker smokes a cigarette, the nicotine reaction start

again. This forces the person to keep smoking.

Studies have found that nicotine can be as difficult to resist as

alcohol or the illegal drug cocaine.
So experts say it is never to start smoking.

I agree banning cigarette indoors ,work places and public places
for example , restaurant ,coffee shop...

There are products designed to help people reduce their dependence on

cigarettes.

There are several kinds of nicotine replacement products that provide

small amounts of the chemical. These can help people stop smoking.

There are many ways to stop smoking.
Walking or running will make you breathe deeply.
This will help clear the nicotine from your body.
Also, when you want to smoke, you could chew gum or eat a piece of
fruit instead.

You can join a group or attend programs about how to stop smoking.

Hello. I'm college student.

I don't like cigarette.
Because it is very bad for health not only smoker but also other people.
So I don't like smoker, too.

My grand father was heavy smoker.
I always said to him "Please stop smorking. It is very bad for you and us."
But he couldn't stop smorking.
Then he contracted lung cancer and died.
I was very sad. I hate cigallet.

So I want to decrease smoker.
And I want to say all smoker "Please stop smoking for you and everyone."

Right then, How do you think about the best way of stop smoking??

Hello all,

* Quitting smoking makes a difference right away-you can taste and smell food better. Your breath smells better. Your cough goes away. This happens for men and women of all ages, even those who are older. It happens for healthy people as well as those who already have a disease or condition caused by smoking.

* Quitting smoking cuts the risk of lung cancer, many other cancers, heart disease, stroke, other lung diseases, and other respiratory illnesses.

* Ex-smokers have better health than current smokers. Ex- smokers have fewer days of illness, fewer health complaints, and less bronchitis and pneumonia than current smokers.

* Quitting smoking saves money. A pack-a-day smoker, who pays $2 per pack, can expect to save more than $700 per year. It appears that the price of cigarettes will continue to rise in coming years, as will the financial rewards of quitting.

Mecamylamine is a drug that blocks the effects of nicotine in the brain.
Mecamylamine is believed to reduce the rewarding effects of cigarette smoking.
A new study has found that mecamylamine also reduces self-reported stimulant and euphoric effects of alcohol in humans, as well as their desire to drink more.
