As most know the drinking age is 21 but as most have said kids under the age are going to get booze if the want it. Some here in Missouri think 21 is too young for people to drink in a bar and party so there have been some clubs open that you are required to be 25 or 27 to enter both age choices are used. Of course then we have the 18 to enter 21 to drink bars to, then all anyone has yo do is pour a jack-coke in the foam underagers cup and boom they are drinking and the bouncer just thinks it is a coke and not to mention if you are over 21 and don't watch your cup like a hawk people will just walk by and steal it so they can drink so you can change it to the whatever age you want the minors are going to drink as long as the booze is accessible for them even if they have to snag it. Oh and yah if someone is going off to war I believe they should be able to have a drink before they go because that is som e scary shit they are going to see and have a drink ready for them when they get back they are going toi neded it started drink early in age and now I can take it or leave it though I partake on a regular basis.
Yeah, I was getting drunk at age 12 and it wasn't hard to get alcohol...ever. My friend's aunt used to buy it for us like it was no big deal. Changing the legal drinking age is pointless, maybe we should just raise the acceptable age for someone to join the army to 21 too. I like it at 21, it's like another benchmark... 14=work 16=drive 18=cigs, porn, lotto 21=drinking
