Frankly I don’t see how that argument addresses my point that both world wars had 16 year olds serving.

Again, if they are old enough to fight and defend their country, they are old enough to vote.

Doesn’t matter who they vote or support. I find the age of infantilization noxious.

Well, as long as you’re for no age limit on anything, if they can write they can vote, if they can reach the peddles they can drive, if they can do whatever they can at whatever age at least you aren’t a hypocrite.

That was need and necessity. This is foolish ego at work. She's fighting no enemy. She's living a fantasy that could, and may still, kill her and it serves no purpose. All she gets are bragging rights. Is that worth her young life?

You aren't really comparing a little chick in an expensive sailboat on a whim to combat Vets that freed the world are you?
