At 18, kids think they are invincible. Give them the ability to drink, makes it worse.

At 18, they are not kids, they're old enough for the gov. to send them over seas to get shot at why can't they have a beer?

As stated above, they still think nothing can happen to them. You mix a "young adult" with the ability to drink and.drive and bad things will happen. Hell, young adult drivers are too reckless w/OUT alcohol. And you can't tell me they won't drink and drive. You are entitled to your opinion, I have mine. We don't have to agree...that's what makes it interesting! ;)

True, but children grow up around alcohol in other countries and people don't make it as taboo as is done here in the U.S. By the way....thanks for serving our country! Hooah!
