Yep. If you are old enough to make the decision to bleed, you are old enough to make the decision smoke and drink. If not, then change the age requirements to enlist in the military to 21.
The goes for voting as well. If a person is not considered mature enough to smoke and drink at the age of 18, why are they considered old enough to vote and bleed at that age?
I’ve been waiting for some idiot in particular states to sue and take the episode to the Supreme Court. If they say smoking and drinking ages must be 21....I don’t see how you avoid then the voting question. Personally, I wouldn’t have a problem with the voting age set at 21.
I am kinda wondering....if you come across some 15-year-old kid smoking weed....what exactly are you going to do to the kid? Fine? Fine the parents or fine the kid? Required anti-smoking classes? Two weeks in some detention center? This seems to me to be a bogus deal and thinking you will change behavior.
Because being immature, they are more likely to vote for the Donkeys.
