TABAQUISM
There are many illegal things that are not very harmful but are illegal for
our body and some other that are harmful but are not illegal. An
example of this is tobacco, which is cause of many deaths and diseases
but is still legal and can be bought in any store and is available to
everyone. To name something as a drug it has to be addictive and
harmful to our body, and tobacco is both. Is not a big difference from
marijuana and tobacco, the only difference is how people talk about
both of them. Many persons think of marijuana as a very bad thing, but
don’t do the same about smoking tobacco even though they are almost
the same thing. So I think tobacco should be illegal just as the other
drugs.
We can tell smoking tobacco has a lot of bad consequences in our life
and in the life of the people that surround us but are still something
normal and we see it every day in our daily life. In order to prevent all
these deaths and people getting addicted to it a solution is to make it
illegal and stop selling it. That way we can avoid children from using it. If
the government decides to illegalize it the amount of people harmed by
smoking it would be decreased, so I think it’s better to do so and stop all
the negative things this brings to our lifes.
