nobody wants the drinking age to be lowered,
I miss the thrill of sneaking around and trying to get wasted, being 22 is eh, the thrill is gone, hence I don't drink but on rrare occasions now.

 

I always thought it strange that you can go fight for your country and take a bullet, but you can't get a drink.

I am not saying one way or the other, I just always thought it was strange.

 

I think there should be a single age where you are legally classfied as an adult. The age is 18, and if you can be drafted, move out of your parents home, pay taxes, get your own Blockbuster card, etc, the you should also be able to drink. It just comes with the territory.

Let them be adults, I say. You can't protect them forever.

 

I think if the person is considered old enough to be trained as killers by the army, then they should be allowed to drink.

 

 

There are some very good points from both sides of the table.. Those that believe 18's should be allowed to drink and then those that don't!!

I didn't want to express any of my points of view so I wouldn't get flamed or anything and we could have a productive thread about drinking at age 18. Thanks and keep em' coming!!

 

for: The canadian legal age for drinking is 18

 

hey great example...
except that 18y/o are allowed to drink if they live on base, so suddenly that doesn't work...

 

It is a maturity issue.

 

I don't know about you, but i dont dig 18 year old sluts.
