I think it should be 18 instead of 21.
If you can die for the US in war at age 18 you should be able to buy alcohol.
Plus you can drink at HOME at the age 18 in your parents house anyway.

I love my country :)
alcohol under 15% (if im correct) = 16 yrs and up legal
Alcohol above that = 18 yrs and up legal
and I can get alcohol since i was 13 , specially with carnaval ;D

The limit down here in NZ was lowered to 18 from 21 a few years ago, shit has backfired big time, and now they're considering raising it back up to 21. Sucks too, way too many teeny boppers inside the clubs. And w/ the smoking ban, lol, night life juss isn't the same..............I'm only 26 and I'd rather party at home than go out the clubs, unless we off to see some slappers!! hehe

Here it's sorta twisted.
To buy mild alcoholic drinks (beer, wine...) from a store, you gotta be 18. When you turn 20 you can buy whatever else. But with clubs and bars it's different - The admission ages vary from 18 to as much as 28 (most are 20 or so though). If you're old enough to get in, you can drink whatever they have there, even if you couldn't buy it in stores.

It would be 18 if muthafuckas weren't so stupid.

yeah, it is smart for the 21, there'd be too many problems with idiots
who gives a fuck anyways, if you're under 21 and can't get a drink some how - you're a square anyways

I doubt the US gov't will ever change it to 18,but you still raise a good point

I agree with the age being 21...i personally think there is a HUGE difference in levels of maturity between 18 and 21...when i was 18 i would drink and do stupid shit and i never thought it would have an effect on anyone but me...and i was lucky it didnt...but not everyone is that lucky. when i drink now that im almost 21 (2 months left) i am way smarter. i dont get in the car. i dont drink if i have to get up early the next day. and i don't usually drink to the point of throwing up...i wouldn't of even though of those things when i was 18

get a fake ID if you need to buy alcohol that much. i will admit though sometimes i want alcohol and i hate having to rely on som1. usually i plan ahead though. ;D

hell yeah i did have sum bad experience thanks to alcohol, i had a lot of stress and drank a lot like 2 yrs ago and got caught for doin vandalism (yes, you can't get any stupider :( ) and im ashamed i did it, I learned a lot from it, you can't just destroy other ppl their belongings, if someone did it to my stuff i would flip out.... And the stress with my parents and a neighbour fight didn't help either. but hey it was all my own fault and i learned from it.

do we really want a bunch of faggot ass high school seniors in the clubs every weekend hugging eachother and all that gay shit?

18 here but 16 in restaurant with food, and no law against drinking in the home. Theres this big debate going on about binge drinking here but i don't think its that much of a problem, although i know a couple of ppl who drink drive alot and that pisses me off, but they over 21 anyway

The binge drinking problem over here just keeps getting blown out of proportion by all the papers, our generation just gets potrayed as drunks simply because back in 1970 etc it wasnt as bad or as common.. Now a days drink goes hand in hand with a lot of things you do in life, and is a normal part of it now..
-
whats all this now talk, IT HAS BEEN FOR CENTURIES if anything we drink less these days
our pubs have only just been allowed to open after 11pm because of law which dated back to the first world war, to stop people getting drink and fucking up the war effort.
-
yeah 21 is really nuts.
i drink legally since im 16 and even before that it was never an issue to get alcohol. basically no real drinking age. I remember when I was like 12 I told them I had to get the beer and the ciggys for my dad and got away with it. the beer was tight but the ciggy fucked me up.
now im twenty and not getting being able to buy some beer myself is something I really cant imagine
personally I think it is a good thing to have alcohol available for kids because that way they stay away from more dangerous drugs like pills, shrooms, coke and shit.. they are all more dangerous imo because you can overdo them easier.. when you drank too much you just pass out, worst case. normally you vomit before it gets to that. been there, done that. Id probably be dead if I had had to get access to other drugs as a teenager. but alcohol was always around and fun so I never had to think about doing anything worse. cheesh, memories.
-
i worked in the night-club industry long enough to know, 18 is too young for clubs. 18 is a good drinking age, but there should be special clubs for people under 21, they dont mix, they cant handle their liquor, and their just idiots, the worst thing is, they know their idiots, and dont care.
-
i remember going to under 18 niights at clubs but i wasn't drinking in those venues but the same time i could goto the pub or off liscence and buy alcahol with relative ease, most people i know stayed away fom anything harder than green, but now my friends are in their twenties they seem alot more open experiment with pills, shrooms and coke but they are not for me.

lotsa guys i know are starting to take pills, smoke hasj use speed etc and they like 17/18... I myself don't even use weed lol... most of these dudes think it's 'cool' to smoke weed/take pills/eat shit, because then they think they will get respect from other ppl who are dumbfucks and use it. thank god i've learned that 2 yrs ago that doin that aint no cool shit, if you got real friends they don't want you to do the shit they do just to hang withchu.
-
^ goto agree with that.. at the same time, it's hard to hang around with people if their not in the same mind-state.
-
They have no balls. I've been asked to take some pills or experience with coke and other shit like that and everytime I've passed on it because I choose not to. You wanna do it, that's cool as long as YOU wanna try it, not outta pier pressure.

Fuck lowering the drinking age to 18. Obviously alot people under 21 drink. If the legal drinking age were 18, alot of people would START drinking because of it, simply because it's legal. This would increase drunk driving (and you all know it). You may want it lowered NOW since you may be 19 or 20, but wait until you get older. I'm talking about maybe your 40's. You would be saying these little punks are irresponsible drinkers.

well in my eyez (chinky eyes) i don't see weed as a problem, besides the fact that it is illegal, Alcohol in my opinion is waaay worse, ciggarettes are waaay worse, how many people do you know that died from smoking too much weed??????
and compare that to how many people died from smoking ciggarettes and drinking alcohol.....
