Can't serve as a cop at 18..but..can be forced to kill in the military. Tell me what kind of logic supports that?

Just be fcking consistent....Whet is the problem here?

Fo, a soldier is pretty much led by a superior the entire way and told who to shoot at and when to stop. At cop pretty much acts on his own with no superior present, does whatever he wants, and the blue wall protects him. In a tense situation the soldier would probably be more disciplined than the cop...or at least that's how it seems these days with all these trigger happy policemen.

I submit the contradiction is glaring. I can be forced to kill people at age 18 under the flag of the state and yet I can not voluntarily be able to protect people under that same flag.

I fully agree that 18 is too young to be a cop. I think it is too young for either thing. Just be consistent. Decide what the age of consent should be and apply it consistently. That is all I ask.

Fair enough

You just contradicted yourself. You agree that 18 is too young to be a cop but then want a consistent age across the board.

I would prefer that the drinking age and the age for conscription be above 18...but....whatever that age is?...be the same. Is that clear enough for you?

They aren't buying it by themselves and they aren't being allowed into night clubs. Some of them may have fake id's but that is becoming much harder to accomplish and very small percentage.

so to be clear ==> 18-20 year olds are not consuming alcohol in large numbers........

personally I think you are removed from reality. Drinking in a bar is much safer than at a house party.

There's your trademark shotty argumentative skills.

So Johnny, you are saying that making it legal for 18 year olds to buy alcohol will have no negative effect on how many 18 year olds die from alcohol related accidents?

I was dealing with the real world when you were swimming around in your dad's sack.

It's simple logic pal. Legalization causes usage to increase exponentially.

If laws aren't stopping 18 year olds front drinking, then you should have no problem with the law.

You think 18 year old's are new to drinking? Hell, I had my first beer at 12 and my first joint at 13. I've been down many paths in life and I've forgot more about the real world than you've experienced.

The point is lowering the age makes no sense and is not safe for 18 year olds or society at large.

Secondly, in your mind 18 year olds are drinking without hindrance as it stands now, so the law means nothing. Therefore, there is no reason to mess with it.

The drinking age is basically 18 in New Orleans and we do just fine. Old eniugh to vote, old enough for sex, old enough for war, old enough to drink.



Im also against forced bar closing times but thats another debate.

For the amount we drink I'd say thats pretty good. And without a stat on how many 8f those are 18-20 I'd call it worthless in this debate.
