Maybe you (and all the other posters) should stop acting as if an age group is the very same as a racial or religious group (funny how we can spout how bad Moslems are, but not college kids).

Everyone has been that age who ever reached 18; it is not a “group” per se to be discriminated against. I’ve been there myself, and I’ve seen it personally when it was “better” than now! And that’s not saying much. (Your quips about 40yo are true, but it is MORE true of 20yo right now as well as generally, and ironically, the 40yo are often vestiges of the beginning of the “immature” movement in society, who only learned hedonism per Dr. Spock.)

And if anything, the MSM loves alcoholic teenagers and tries to make them out to be cool and great.

I'm about as pro-gun as one can get, but you bring up some good points. Packing heat at 21 isn't good for everyone. Looking back, I was far too immature at 21, and I joined the service at 17. I have a CHL now and many years of "wisdom" to temper my judgement...... Being able to conceal carry just because your 21 isn't correct for all......

What are you talking about? A group?

It's really quite simple - you want to limit voting based on the portrayals of people 18-21 you see on the MSM. I think we need fewer restrictions on rights, not more.
