Like I said before, are underage drinking laws really that bad? I think you people are over-reacting and getting all mad about something that isn't even a big deal.

On their face, a lot of people would say no, but let's look a little deeper:

Treating legal adults (18-20 year olds) like children.

And far, far worse, the fed blackmailing, yes blackmailing the states. This part is a huge deal. It showcases the fed's willingness to disregard its constitutional charter, and to rule in ways more accustomed to an organized crime racquet. Blackmail deserves and should earn no respect for legitimacy, and I will give it none even if it has happened for a long time, and even if its done for some altruistic reason.

I think you people are over-reacting and getting all mad about something that isn't even a big deal.

I'm not over-reacting or getting angry. I'm merely voicing objection to the law, in a calm rational manner. That's all.

So, you have no problem with your freedoms, and the freedoms of other 18-20 year olds, being unconstitutionally violated by the federal government as long as it's a violation of a freedom you don't exercise regularly?
