I saw it on the news last night in Orlando, FL. this was between reports of Tropical Storm Fay, etc. I did not hear exactly what they said about it. But is it true?
I think they should. If they trust an 18 year old to carry a machine gun and if necessary, DIE for our country in Iraq, they can go to prison for life, become a fire fighter or a cop, buy a gun, become a bar tender and a paramedic and even smoke cigarettes and get into an x*x rated movie, why not let them drink?
I understand, they may go to school drunk, but if I went to work drunk, I would be fired right? School should be no different. Kick them out of school for coming in drunk!
If they want beer badly enough at age 18, they will get it! Some stores will sell it to them. They have friends and relatives who are 21. They can also go meet someone in a parking lot who is 21 and have them buy.
When my friends and I were 21, I lost count of how many times people asked us to buy for them. Did we do it? I PLEAD THE FIFTH! LOL
I used to work in a hotel and 18 yr olds had alcohol all the time there.
What do you think? Should the age be lowered?
Keep in mind: 18 year olds are dying for our country in Iraq and Afghanistan. They can get the death penalty, become a cop, smoke and buy a gun and almost anything else they want, except drink a beer!
