Poison gas became a popular weapon in WWI trench warfare, but it was also very controversal. The reason it was considered an atrocity is because inhalation of poisonous gases causes a very painful death. Some victims were known to experience blindness, chemical burns, and many who were killed with poison gas were even found with white hair.
