People choose to join the military.Nice try but you need a better example.
The major reason why 18-20 year olds can't buy alcohol is because the Reagan Administration in 1984 reduced federal highway funding to states by 10 per cent every year that they didn't raise the minimum drinking age to 21.As usual money talks and the states all stepped in line.
I don't see why gun rights supporters are worried.Adam Lanza walks into a schoolroom and murders 20 six year olds with a semi automatic rifle and nothing changed.It certainly isn't going to now.
