making drinking illegal was already done and guess wat i didnt work out. well any ways the drinking age should be lowered to 18 jus because teens drink because they think they can get away with it. well personaly im 17 and i have been drinking for about 2 years now. now for all the people out there who want to say something dont. i was rasied around beer and liquor. both [arents drink and have taught me to be responabil and not to drink and drive. if the drinking age was to be lowered then alot of the deaths tht happen because of underage drinking would go down jus because we know tht we wont get in trouble cause we are of age. and well if im able to fight and die for this country i want to be able to drink when i want to.
