I got your point, but you need to understand that LAW is FLAWED
IT'S TIME FOR SHENMUE III, SEGA!

I bet they would throw you out on the front lines if the UK was invaded by another country.
I'm not a big fan of inconsistent laws. I'm my mind the right to drink, defend ones country, vote and purchase explicit content etc should come at the same time or at least happen in a more logical order.
I think its silly that people can fight and potentially kill for their country and yet they can't drink for example. Or in Australia for example, one can have sex at 16 but can't buy porn until they're 18. Which is also inconsistent.

The idea isn't to die for your country, you serve for your country. You get financally compensated for your service as well. Also, no one is forcing you in the army.
Frankly I don't care if they banned alcohol all together. Its responsible nothing good and I prefer pot anyway.

You are missing the whole point of the statement. The fact is, 18 year olds go to war and many die for their country, but none of them can even have a drink. It doesn't matter if they pay you, money is no good if you are dead. They care if you drink, but it is ok to let people die from going to war at such a young age?
Nintendo still doomed?

It's better to be addicted to sex than porn. I heard porn makes you go blind and also free on the internet.
The internet is trying to make me blind :(

agree 100%
the thought of those young kids getting maimed for life though depresses me maybe even more than the thought of lost life for a cause that still isn't 100% clear to me let alone a group of kids fresh out school fueled by raging hormones. who can't even legally drink yet.
It just gets me down so I'm outa here.

Drinking is not essential and many young people have proven to be irresponsible. Hence, why they decided to make it 21.
An army is very essential to our country and many people tend to go right after high school.
So whats the solution? Allow 18 years olds to drink and have more durnken idiots in public? Or make the minimum age to go to war 21 just to keep people like you quiet?
Ultimately the army is very important to us and career for many. Drinking is bullshit and benefits nobody.
