  • emilyerin, on 08/20/2008, -0/+3I agree with this 107%. Kids binge to rebel. Lowering the drinking age would eliminate drinking as a way to be rebellious. Let's copy Europe. They get it.
    • mcfara, on 08/20/2008, -0/+1Couldn't agree more...unfortunately the argument made in the article - that doing this would only INCREASE drunk driving accidents - is what will hold it back from happening, even if there's no supporting evidence to support that statement.
