Lowering the drinking age

This has to be the hot topic for anyone who has heard of it. i cannot think of any 18 yearold who would not like to see the drinking age lowered. I must say that iI would tent to agree with most of them. there is so much drinking that goes on behind closed doors and in garages that is really makes no difference what the drinking age is. It all comes down to self choice, it is so easy to get your hands on a case of beer that on a friday night most high school kids are out drinking, and because they cant do it legally they feel that they must take advantage of the oppertunity, so they get drunk out of their mind. i think that if the drinking age was lowered people would see kids that are much more relaxed and focused. For example look at europe everyone drinks when they are 18 because they are considered adults. I believe that if you can sight a legal document, go to war, and get married you should be able to have a drink.
