The teens old enough to drink had some beers
To the Editor, When I read the letter about increasing the age at which wad can sully intoxicant, I felt I had to write. I decidedly disagree with this idea Just because someone can non bargain for alcohol doesnt mean that person cant get drunk.Many state between 18 and 30 ar responsible enough to taint alcohol. Even if you argue otherwise, teenagers and young heavy(a)s can still get alcoholand one way is the very responsible adults argued in favor of.If teenagers are not equipped to handle the effects of alcohol, then neither are those adults. When I was eleven, I went camping with my parents and some family friends. The teens old enough to crapulence had some beers, but stopped when they had a buzz on. One adult drank so more than she made herself sick. We heard her throwing up in the bushes How much more proof do you need that adults are more puerile than teenagers?If this law were put to a vote, many people would oppose it. not only is it stupid, it is unenforceable thither arent enough police officers to supervise all places that sell alcohol, let alone teens and young adults who might buy alcohol Current laws prohibiting teens from buying alcohol are fine. Merchants check appointment and refuse service to anyone under 18.Obviously they do a good job, considering how a few(prenominal) teens die in accidents every year in comparison with adults. aspect at the numbers alone, the adults obviously need babysitting, not the kids.Its not fair to restrict teenagers and young adults access to alcohol. It wont work, anyway, since there are always enough adults who are gullible enough to buy alcohol for kids who ask them or bribe them enough. Lets search it Anne Helmers idea is just plain stupid.
