What if someone asked you for a cigarette at a party? Would you say yes or no? I would say no because it causes the body to stop working. If you say yes you could die of lung cancer. Which would you like? Die or LIVE! If you say no some people might think you are not cool but you will live.

If you do smoke you will get weird things like tar and lactic acid (its the same acid found in you stomach, that GROSS!) and many other things. Those are only some of the things in cigarettes.
