ok. Let’s raise the age to own a rifle to 26. And the drinking age. And the driving age. And the voting age. And the age for marriage, for that matter. Out after dark? not if you’re under 26!
We’ve already sent a message to kids they can’t be trusted any more to pay for their own medical care before age 26. So if we’re going to send a message to all youth that they can’t be trusted with yet another issue, then let’s do it the whole way and settle on that age 26.Never mind the boy was also looking up bombmaking.
But if all we talk about is guns, and look outward for a national daddy to do something instead of inward at our own communities who failed to do something, who set the stage on a local level, then we’re just doing the work islamists don’t want to be noticed doing - disarming America.
I was thinking the same thing. Propose making 26 the age of majority. Under that you're still a minor. No signing contracts either and parents are civilly and criminally liable for their actions.
Let people's heads go splodey over that idea for a while and they won't want to discuss any of this anymore.
