Smoking Topic; Biased and Unbiased Sentences

Biased Sentences = Red
Unbiased Sentences = Blue
Smoking is the most disgusting, horrible, unhealthy way of showing off yourself into coolness. Smoking cigarettes/cigars have tobacco in them. According to Wikipedia, tobacco smoking may cause lung cancer, heart disease, emphysema, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. According to the CDC (Centers for Disease Control; an agency in the United States), it is told that 440,000 people in US die every year by smoking. According to the World Health Organization, it estimates that tobacco killed 5.4 million people in 2004, and 100 million deaths in the 20th century. People are foolish and unaware of people who do not want to smoke. They just think it is cool and think that they find it in the popularity side, rather than the healthy side. Smoking should be prohibited everywhere and should never be used in the world.
