Should the drinking age be lowered?

  1. Australia's drinking age is 18 just sayin'
     
  2. A country that allows 9 year Old girls to fire Uzi sub machine guns killing instructors but prevents a 20 year Old adult from buying a beer has clearly got their priorities wrong!
     
  3. Yes. support. nuff said.
     
  4. Lower it to 18 with the proof of a active military I'd. If you are willing to serve your country and possibly give your life. Why shouldn't you be able to drink? 21 is considered "Adult". Well if your willing to serve our active forces doesn't that show enough maturity to be considered an adult?
     
  5. In UK it 18 to drink ...
     
  6. There should be no drinking age
     
  7. That article is fake. Obama has not signed anything nor has congress. Just FYI
     
  8. No the drinking age shouldn't be lowered.
     


  9. Um it's 19 in Canada...
     
  10. Stunning logic...

    That cliche is older than u r
     
  11. No, alcohol is bad enough as it is.
     
  12. ๎ˆฎhe knows his stuff ๎’๎’๎ˆฎ

    How about if 18 with a job n paying your own way u r an adult n booze it up all u like. If living at home with mommy n daddy they can go buy the booze if they think its fine. In other words 18yr olds hardly know anything about RL til they try it out for real. Then n only maybe then it might be a good law if u r independent n responsible for yourself without assistance.
    Stand on your own 2 feet 1st.
     
  13. No support to it.

    The lower the drinking age, the more teenagers prone to drugs, accidents (driving while drunk, getting very angry to someone, etc.) and the more they will go to the clubs with girls (hate it) and the more they will escape from their homes to join their friends to drink (the last one might not be true, might it?). If in our country (and to some more) drinking alcoholic liquids are the cause of most accidents, will it be on America?
     
  14. Drinking age is always a debatable topic. Lower it/raise it depending on where your from. But i agree with people that if you can make a decision on who leads your country (vote), decide to fight for your country and are considered an adult (18y/o) then its hypocritical to not allow you to decide if you want a drink. Its 5 o'clock somewhere!
     
  15. Why is drinking important anyway? I realize...
     
  16. In aust thay should raise it to 21
     
  17. No it should not be lowered. Look what alcohol has done to troll and chubby and larry and tc. They've become a bit slow in the head. And by a bit I mean a lot. It should be raised to 40 to help curb the influx of idiots.
     
  18. Mind if you aren't busy, please, I'm curious...
     
  19. 18 in some parts 19 in others.
     
  20. No that in licenced areas, off licence is 4 years old, anyone can drink. Which is why I don't understand why you're bickering about the legal age.
