I have known 30 year olds with PHDs who will go to a skate park. Yes, that is plural. I never got into it myself. Video games are very popular across age groups. Many economists argue that video games are part of the reason for lower male workforce participation recently. These are adults are refusing to take adult responsibility. As for private parts... Well trump is really old, and he hires women to have sex with him, which just seems stupid to me.
I have noticed that trump worshippers are less likely to be taking on adult responsibilities. What sort of adults smoke anymore? It just does not make sense.
Anyway, I am fine with 18 as a voting age, but there is nothing magical about that number. There are plenty of mature 15 year olds who read the Economist, and plenty of immature 50 year olds who play video games all day.

17 year olds can sign an enlistment contract committing to being in the Army. 16 year olds can sign an employment contract, agreeing to work in a job. 16 year olds can drive in most states.
The rights of adulthood are given over several ages, which I think is reasonable. It is silly to say that 16 year olds are incapable of making informed voting decisions, but it is reasonable to say that on average it is too young, and maybe the age should remain at 18.
walt its too young and you know it and a 17 year old cant serve and they only get permits to drive in most states the last I saw but that's been awhile.
they are not old enough to vote democrats want them to vote cause they think they will be stupid and vote democrat along with illegals and felons .
You are mistaken. You can serve in the US military at age 17. They are generally avoiding it, but legally it can happen. They are not allowed to send soldiers under age 18 to war zones, but sometimes the war zone comes to the US military.
I really have to ask at this point: did you serve? You do not seem to know much about it.
Most states have a learners permit at age 15, and a license at age 16.

AMERICAN HISTORY ITSELF IS A TESTAMENT TO THE STRENGTH AND RESILIENCE OF AFRICAN PEOPLE. WE, ALONG WITH THE COURGE AND SACRIFICES OF CONSCIOUS WHITE AMERICANS, LIKE VIOLA LIUZZO, EVERETT DIRKSEN, AND MANY OTHERS, HAVE FOUGHT AND DIED TOGETHER FOR OUR FREEDOM, AND FOR OUR SURVIVAL.
In America, rights are are not determined by what is just, fair, equitable, honest, nor by what Jesus would do. Rights are determined ONLY by what you can DEMAND.
