Question: What will I get if I steal cigarettes?
Answer: In Arizona, Possession of tobacco by a person under the age of 18 is an incorrigible act and you could face charges in court. There could be various penalties. STEALING is a different story. Theft or shoplifting is a crime and you could be prosecuted for committing this act. You could be ordered to jail or any other options that the judge may decide according to A.R.S. sec 13-1802, 13-1805, 8-341 and 8-201(15)

the rebellion to parents is why some kids smoke...if there was no age limit and they said it was bad to do then they probably wouldnt do it...but even if there was a 13 year old age limit some kids would wait until they are 13 and then smoke

smoking is bad and all, but the reason people should stop is because it hurts others too.
