Your opinions on the drinking age in the U.S. ?

Where I live we’re allowed to drink at 18 and go to clubs and bars at 18 but people are already drinking at like 13/14. I think the age limit is good because honestly I know people who in their 20s who have gotten arrested for DUI but not many people who are 18. Sure maybe being 25 you’ll make better decisions than at 18 but I think that if you’re drunk than you’re going to act the same whether you’re 18 or 25.

I also think that it’s stupid that Americans get their license at like 16, can buy guns at 18 and can join the army at 18 but can’t drink or go to clubs until their 21. I feel like it’s more dangerous to have an 18 year old with a gun than an 18 year old who drinks.
