And Enterprise will rent to 21 year olds. Hell, Budget will rent to 18 year old. Granted...You gotta be military for that. XD


I know that Enterprise will; that's why I said "aside from a few companies, who will rent to people who are 21"... So I don't see your point, lol.


Touche.

You can go die for your country at age eighteen yet you cant drink until you are twenty one.
Now for some odd reason this does not make any sense to me.


You should go read the sixth comment on the prior page where I settle your statement once and for all.

Good day.

It's an idea from someone who dosn't care for the human race anymore.


Wow. This makes Hitler look quite saintly.

Dosn't it though?
The only difference is his aim was to eliminate a group of people because of something they couldn't control.


& what would your aim be in your proposed scenario; to just eliminate everyone indiscriminately? xP

Only the people I deemed "evil" D:
I guess that would make me a bad guy in the process. >.>


But Hitler deemed the Jews evil [to drastically oversimplify Nazi Germany]... It's all different variations of the same thing, lol.

What he did was simply genocide.
What I'd plan would be more like filtering.
Jews arn't evil, they're more like the "defenseless rabbits" of religion. >.>

The point elyzia is making is that evil is a matter of perspective. Hitler saw the Jews as evil, even though they were not. And "simple genocide" and "Filtering" are pretty much the same thing. AT least in the eyes of the US and the UN.

I know what she's saying, and I know what I said.
At this point I'm pretty much joking.
I've said what I think and it's rather obvious that I'd never be put in a leadership position but atleast I'm honest unlike so many other leaders. :/

Yes, actually. It is. Because while underage kids are whining about not being able to drink (even though they do), my buddies and I have to worry about if we're getting paid on 30 April or not. So right now, the Military's tolerance to whining and bitching is at an all time low.

Absolutely. If we can die for our country, own property, live on our own, and star in a freakin' porno at 18, then why can't we make the choice of intoxication?


Because your brain is still developing. Alcohol DOES affect the brain. Your brain is fully deloped around 20-21 years. And there are somethings you can't even do at 21:

Run for US House of Represenatives. (Must be 25.)

Run for US Senate. (Must be 30.)

Run for President of the United States. (Must be 35.)

And to each and every one of you that say "If I'm old enough to die for my country, then I'm old enough to drink," join the ******** military. THEN you can say that without it being simple whining. Because while yes, you can join the military and die, 99% of the US DOESN'T. They choose NOT to have the possibility of dying. And as I stated before, by July, ALL soldiers will be able to drink at 18, so long as they remain on base. So all arguements stating dying for country are hereby invalid.

/rant.


I never said it wouldn't effect the brain, I mean hell; so will most of the meat you eat in this country is purebread poison rolleyes Of course you can't hold a high-ranking government position at 21, at that point we are inexperienced and young. It would be like putting 8-year-olds as CEOs. My point in that whole list was that we are adults who can live on our own, make our own choices, and run our own lives. That choice should be ours as well.

ANd yet most idiotic alcohol related incidents happen in people 18-25. Tis why Car Insurance for that group is so high. And no, none of them meat in the country is purebred poison or the FDA would have someone's balls. If they could, the government would RAISE the legal drinking age.

ANd if you look at elyzia's list as well as mine, there are a multitude of other things you can't do at 18, yet people DON'T b***h about.

Just wondering, are you fighting everyone in this thread? People are going to be afraid to post if you keep that up.
Oh, and are food IS practically toxic. THe entire human population is fed by about only 25 plant AND animal species; that's tiny. They are so domesticated (meaning bred for certain traits over extended periods of time) that they cannot bread or give birth without human interference or artificial insemenation. Turkeys are bread with such huge breasts that they can't mate. They are also so inbread that the genetic diversity is dwindling down to nothing: it causes mutations and deformities. Do you really want to eat that?
PostPosted: Sun Apr 10, 2011 3:17 pm


I'm not fighting EVERYONE in this thread. Just people that whine and b***h.

Turkeys grow in the wild all the time. As does cattle, chickens, and swine. And no, the US eats about 75% meat and 25% vegetables. Except for those that are vegetarians or vegans. the US is actually one of the best fed countries on Earth. Because of the sheer a**l inspections performed by the FDA. Saying that we're eating poison shows you know almost nothing about the food inspection process.

And if you look at the title, this is a debate about the drinking age, not food. If you want to get in to that, take it to another topic.

Also, why would big breasts in turkeys, and "mutations and deformaties" be toxic? It's still just meat.
