Look Will, I know that you love to argue, and to disagree with me just to argue, but did you really type that with a straight face? Seriously?

Phhht, well yeeeaah. I think my first marriage illustrates your point rather nicely.
That point conceded. But at
some point we have to pick a point where we say that our children are grown, and it's time for them to assume full responsibility for their actions and enjoy the rights and privileges that come with it. For things like voting, gun ownership, military service and so on...that arbitrary age should be 18. We have to set the bar
somewhere. 18 makes as much if not more sense, to me, as any other. 14? No freakin' way, man.
