18

[svnmag]

It's been made a confusing age and Trump didn't help. IMO; "adulthood" should be consolidated. I don't think 18 is old enough to vote and/or die in a foreign war. Conversely; if it is; (parental time perception be damned): Shouldn't they be afforded legal right to drink alcohol, use tobacco and buy a handgun?

This shit again occurred to me when I saw speculation of a new "draft"--females included: Females were first used around 1976 to mindfuck the military in MP roles. Now there's drag queen shows on "base/post".

I digress: I propose a "true adult" should possess a state/fed card between the ages of 18/21; similar to "hunter safety": Card holders would be privileged to all the reward and shit.

I'll spare the obvious Alice Cooper.

That is all.

Yes 18 should be the legal adult age. If you can die for your country at 18 you should be able to buy a beer and a smoke.

I totally agree. It's funny you'll be charged in ADULT court and any offenses for underage consumption will be on your ADULT record if charged when over 18 and under 21. We send 18+ year olds to ADULT prison but 18-21 year olds can't legally consume alcohol. When I was in Germany there was no limit on age at all.

18 AND be able to drink as well

OR

not until 21 for "adulting" (include everything)

The way it is now makes about as much sense as keeping weed "illegal"

I believe at 18 your still a stupid kid and easily manipulated the age should be raised to 25 for everything smoking drinking military ext...just my opinion

I tend to agree and acknowledge that's a hell of a long time to be a kid. I refer back to my aforementioned "adult card". It's virtually been in existence for years with emancipated children.
