It's not a right, it's a privilege.

I am for an across the board 18 yo drinking age. But it is obscene that service members can be sent to Iraq, handle tanks and rifles and advanced weapons systems, and then they come back home and can't have a beer at a ballgame. If you can't change the law to 18, at least change it for them.
