NO! You are wrong. You will be taking the RIGHT to vote out of every military person aged 18-20 years and 364 days on voting day. THAT was one thing that I took very seriously when I was in the military. I was voting for MY Commander in Chief. Every military person has a right to vote for his or her commander. Since you have to be 18 to be in the military, then every, EVERY 18, 19 and 20 year old HAS A RIGHT to vote for their Commander, period!!!
Thank God, Hillary and the DNC pissed off so many Bernie supporters, we would be saying Madam President...
The stupidity of Liberalism knows no bounds.
Hell...why not make 25 years old.?? That's when the liberals say the so called millennials become grownups... From what I've seen of them, maybe their right..!
Feinstein - a burned out old liberal hag who is a true democrat right to the leftist marrow in her brittle old bones.
In any gun related tragedy (excluding Chicago, Baltimore or other democrat plantations) democrats like Feinstein jump into action.
They are as reliable as any well programmed government zombie in North Korea and other communist utopias.
We see them climbing on top of the still warm and falling bodies of the victims to push their leftist agendas, especially anti-2nd amendment.
Why haven’t we heard her whining about the connection between behavior changing, mind altering drugs and mass shooters?
Why haven’t we heard her sobbing and emoting about the shootings and crime stats in Chicago and other democrat ghetto plantations?

Of course, last night being Friday night, this data is no doubt already out of date by now.
Yep they’re the ones who made kids adults. We have plenty of 16 year olds I’d trust with my life. They aren’t liberals.
You know...I wouldn’t have a problem with voting, gun-purchasing, alcohol-purchasing and conscription age all being 21. I’ve got a feeling that this would be a no-go for the Democrats.
My humble guess is that Trump will play this well...saying sure...toss all four of these into the same bucket, with a waiver possible for kids to join the military before 21, if their parents sign off. But to accomplish this, you’d have to go and amend the Constitution on the voting age. Zero chance that this will occur.
Surely she is ok with raising the age to 21 for having abortions.
Typical band-aid reaction when the problem has less to do with guns/rifles and more to do with the lack of mental health treatment.
In the case of the recent Florida shooter, he had been on the radar for years, police had been called to the home nearly 40 times, fellow students previously remarked that he would be one likely to perform a mass school shooting, school officials were aware of him, and even the FBI had been notified — but apparently ignored any real follow-up.
Another asinine feel-good law is not the solution.
When Mr. b was first a deputy sheriff, he couldn’t buy ammo for his issued weapon because he was underage. He could use ammo the department purchased though.
Change the Voting Age to 21 and I might agree with it.
The 18-20 Year Old Voters do more damage to the 330,000,000 Citizens of the United States of America than people with Rifles.
That being said, I owned a .22 Rifle and a .410 Shotgun when I was eight years old. My older Brother took his .22 Rifle to School when he was in the Gun Club.
They had a shooting range in the Basement.
Neither of us have killed as many People as Ted Kennedy.
I acquired my first gun at the age of 13. My father gave it to me. Now I’m almost 69 and have multiple guns. I inherited or was given each of them.
Yup. Raise the voting age and age to join the military to 21.
Is this a States Rights issue? If the federal government can legislate the age of which it is legal to purchase a certain type of firearm, how is it then that a state can regulate the types and calibers of firearms and firearms accessories that a citizen can possess? This goes directly to the viable enforcement of the “Federal” law called the Constitution, in particularly, the Second Amendment in the Bill of Rights. Do states have the legal authority to override parts of Constitutional Law that said authority is not expressly granted to the state’s in the Constitution?
IIRC, there are only 7 CCW permits in San Fran county & Di Fi & her bodyguards have 6 of those permits.
She does this every time there is a shooting. Her bill goes directly to committee to die a natural death. :-)
Another “this’ll go over like a fart in church” demonKKKrat gun control bill.
