Never Use Drugs

The negative things about drugs.

Have you ever heard the words cocaine, marijuana, or steroids and wondered what they were? If you don't know they are drugs. Many people all over the world use drugs. In fact they get addicted to drugs. They think drugs are cool and that they will be cool too if they use drugs. Well if you are someone like that then this is your lucky day!So let me just start you off with some reasons on why you should never ever ever use drugs! Reason number one; unless you happen to want to be in jail for approximately +5 years then don't use drugs. Reason number two; drugs have many negative long and short term effects. Reason number three; drugs can result into you being addicted and you will not be able to stop. So let's go through my reasons and stop you from using drugs.

One reason why you shouldn't use drugs is because you will be given a long prison sentence if you are caught with a drug. If you are caught using, carrying, selling, or buying drugs you will be arrested. You sentence depends on the amount and type of drug you are caught with. So let's say you are caught with 50 grams of Crack Cocaine. That will result into a 10 year sentence. Yes, that means 10 years of your precious life go down the drain and also, did you know that 50 grams is equivalent to only 1/4 of a cup! Do you know how small a cup is! That means if you are caught with 1 cup of drugs you will be given a 40 year sentence! Now that's a lot of time to spend in prison in my opinion.

Another reason why you shouldn't use drugs is because drugs have many negative short and long term effects. For example, one short term effect is when you use cocaine you might become violent and start feeling anxious and nervous. Also on rare occasions you might suddenly die. This is because of cardiac arrest seizures. A long term effect for MDMA (Ecstasy) is that your mood, thinking, and judgment change. In fact it damages your body which is why scientists that tested it on animals believe that MDMA (Ecstasy) is not safe for humans. So now are you sure you are willing to die or permanently damage your body by using drugs? Well I'm not!

My last reason why you shouldn't use drugs is because drugs can make you get addicted to it. You might think, why is this a good reason? Well it is because after you get addicted, you tell yourself that "I must have more drugs!" Then some drug dealer will come to you and sell you some drugs at such a huge price. Then you will lose all your money and then you will be arrested. For example, a well to do business man might lose all his money because he uses drugs. He will be fired and put in jail and now he will be in jail for his whole life without a penny. I'm not willing to lose all my money because of some drug dealer who wants to take advantage of me and I hope you aren't willing to lose your money either.

In conclusion I think that drug abuse is a very serious issue and I think that people should never buy drugs. My reasons are because you will be arrested, you will suffer from short and long term effects form drugs, and you will become a drug addict. So if you still want to use drugs after reading this persuasive article then shame on you!

your lack of personal touch and passion are lacking in this work. I do not know if you have run in's in the underworld of the drug culture, but by your text it seems like you haven't. It seems like you wrote this with the best intention, but you do not cite any evidence on why drugs are bad.

Also I have been arrested countless times on drug possession and have not served serious jail time.
