Default Drinking age-

21 is ridiculous. I do not believe there should be a drinking age. if kids get taught to drink an occasional glass of alcohol they will do it far less during they're high-school and college years. take Europe as an example...

Default drinking age

Sure, as long at's it's done in moderation. The downside to this: How discplined are teenagers? They find something that feels good and that's it. It's over

I think the drinking age is fine anywhere between 18 and 21. Law Enforcement doesen't really care if underage people drink, but its always been a good excuse for them to use when they have to break up wild sex parties.

Default Hmm.

I have met a distant cousin of a cousin who lives in Germany. I says let kids drink alcohol (by age 14?), before they learn how to drive (at age 16). After they've found out that having the legal right to get drunk till you puke on your shoes ain't no big deal (around age 15?), they likely won't have problems with drinking and driving.

And why should law enforcement be wanting to break up wild sex parties?

Probably so they can spend time doing something, what else does law enforcement do at night?

If you can go to war, you should be able to drink a beer. Simple as that.

Default Drink up...

Drinking isn't that big of a deal as long as you do it responsibly and i honestly don't have an issue with people under 21 drinking because i did it in high school and I'm still doing it here in college so my opinion is that if you can drink responsibly then get has drunk as you want.
