Awesome point. never thought of it that way.

We're doing something that is best for all of us. I think it's a great idea because there is alot of people who will do drugs when they are very very young .. that's why we have age restrictions ..

Okay, right. trying isn't the same as habitually using. i'm sure there are a few ppl in office that have "tried". and supposedly, "they turned out okay". I can't accept that explanation.

There's age discrimination everywhere. Note that this isn't a bad thing.
The word discrimination has been so weighed down with negative connotations, that people try to avoid it whenever possible. This is a bad thing.
I've proposed a bill to the PA State House titled the "Americans With No Abilities Act", which builds on the successes of its predecessors, the "Civil Rights Act of 1964", which everyone praises but apparently no one has read, and the "Americans With Disabilities Act", which is almost as ludicrous as the AWNAA. The AWNAA will extend the protections offered to Americans by barring discrimination based on race, gender, age, sexual orientation, financial status, disability, and, of course, merit.

Okay, well, you do realize that the way in which ppl on this debate are using the term "discrimination" is meant more so as "prejudice". So let's think of it that way if you prefer...
exactly how do they plan to bar discrimination based on these reasons? even though women have equal rights as men now, we still are discriminated and "pre-judged". men still get better pay in some situations (especially male college professors with the same degree in the same area as a female college professors). That's just an example.
