+159 I think it's kind of dumb that we can have a say in the president at eighteen, you can kill yourself with cancer sticks, and you are considered an adult, but they won't let you drink. It just doesn't make sense to me. amirite?

Yeah, it's 18 legally in Ireland, but they really don't care as long as you're either 16 or look 16.

drinking should be illegal

(perfect world): then where did the freedom go? And don't you think that the illegal market would explode?

(perfect world): If you made it illegal way more people would start drinking, it'd just make it seem that bit more interesting because you're not allowed to do it. And, who's to say some people aren't responsible drinkers? It's ok to drink sometimes, and you should be able to.

It's more dangerous to society to give an 18 year old a beer than a gun.

Here in the Netherlands you can drink at 16, as long as the drink doesn't contain more than 15%. And it seems that we have a lot less problems with teenagers drinking too much than the Americans. It really is true: when you forbid things, they become even more interesting.
