    WRONG; apparently you have never had children or deal with kids. The notion that today's 16 year olds are mature is laughably stupid.

    I don't know what's in her mind and am not sure I agree with the idea of 16-year olds voting. I've never given it any thought. But I think it's curious that whenever the topic of increasing voters comes up, cons think it means those voters will pull the levers for Democrats.

    So what? I don't understand that military service equates to a right to vote. We get jobs at 18 in the private sector; does that mean we become more informed and ready to vote?

    I will NEVER be okay with automatic voter registration. It goes against everything we stand for. If someone is too lazy to even go register, then they will also be too lazy to get informed about the issues and candidates.

    The founders never intended everyone to vote and thought that uninformed voters voting for dishonest politicians who promised them something for nothing the greatest threat to the Republic. They were correct and wise beyond their time.

    Meh, I don’t think it would change much.

    People who are too lazy to register to vote most likely won’t bother with voting if all they had to do was to show up at the polls with an ID. Since we’re political junkies it’s easy to lose sight of the fact many people are just tuned-out on the whole game.

    Getting rid of voting rolls would get rid of some of mischief and voter ID would cut down voting fraud.

    What I said was that they're more mature than boomers, not that they're as mature as a person can be.

    Teenagers do stupid stuff. Gotta remind them to wear a helmet, remind them to buckle up, remind them that their bungee cord needs to be a good bit shorter than the distance between the top of the bridge they plan to jump off of and the water below. But hey! We need teenagers. It's the modern form of natural selection.
    Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
    empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
    pain in abortion.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
    which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

    Yes, what you said is stupid and can't be supported by any facts. Par for the course when dealing with liberals.

    You didn't answer the question, Hillary.
    I think you're a good example of how immature boomers are. You always get angry and resort to name-calling. You're unable to just talk calmly to someone you disagree with.
