drop the legal drinking age to 18. if you can fight for our freedom in the military you should be able to drink

Created by C.L. on May 18, 2013

There are many reasons why the legal age of consent of 21 does not make sense. first of all at age 18 you are considered an adult in the eyes of the government. At age 18 you can serve our country in the military, go to war and fight for our freedom. If you can fight for our freedom then you should have the freedom to drink an alcoholic beverage. At 18 you can become a first responder, again if you can be an hero and put your life on the line everyday to protect the people of this country damn right you should be able to pop open a cold one after work if you want. At 18 you can be tried and go to adult jail and prison. At 18 you can smoke or chew tobacco . What I am pointing out to you is that at the age of 18 you can practically do anything you want but drink does that make sense?
