What do you think are legitimate reasons for a teen to be out past 11pm or midnight?

What does that matter? Should a free society demand that the citizens justify their every action with a "legitimate reason"? This was the entire argument used for the assault weapon ban - "is there really any legitimate reason for a person to need one of these deadly weapons"?

This kind of reasoning is what turns off so many otherwise conservative voters. It scares people when they see our party advocating a police state.

Children are not recognized as full citizens under the law (which you know already) nor do they have the full rights of an adult.

Usually those clamoring for these things are the ACLU, NAMBLA, and other assorted liberal creeps.

The question I asked was to Nathaniel Fisher...

He said "If there's a legitimate reason for a teen to be out late...."

His comment stated that he felt if they had a legitimate reason to be out.....so I asked what "he" felt were legitimate reasons to be out. I have a legitimate question which I don't think you can answer since you're not him.
