Raising the legal age for buying alcohol >.<

[quote=Blowfeld]when did the age ever matter? I think 18 is ok, but if you want to drink earlier you will find your ways to do so... Hell when I was 14 I had found out so many ways to get some alcohol that I should been through my third rehab now by the age of 30 :D But hey- alcohol is highly overrated... once a month is more then enough anyway :)[/quote]

[quote=Pølsemanden][quote=IceCreamy] At the age of 16, you can get some low percentage alcoholic drinks such as beer or wine. For the other stuff you need to be 18. I just don't care because I don't drink anyways, but I hear some sick stories of young people drinking, ending up in hospital... Go go Danish government! :P [/quote] Well somebody has to have the record for most youth drinking in the world ^^ The thing with ppl buying it illegally is the problem: It will lead to hobo's getting money for buying six packs. And gas-stations having their drink sales doubled. Quess i'm just raging cuz i don't likez our new government: A foreign associations Minister which can't speak english. A religious minister which is hindu. A tax minister which is 23 A ecenomics minister which used to be a part of DKP(Dansk Kommunist Parti(danish communist party)) A healthcare minister which couldn't attend the first 2 months of their rule cuz she just had a child. And the debate right now is about the commies claiming that people who get 3000$(!) in healthcare are poor. I present to u the danish government -.-'[/quote]

[quote=Wintermond]Kids shouldn't be allowed to drink the hard stuff, you simply can't take any responsibility for the stuff you do to yourself at the age of 16.[/quote]

[quote=iBradlee][quote=Pølsemanden] I just think that it's stupid to limit something that doesn't hurt anyone but one self with age. [/quote] That's the single dumbest thing I've read all morning. [quote=Pølsemanden] The thing with ppl buying it illegally is the problem: It will lead to hobo's getting money for buying six packs. And gas-stations having their drink sales doubled. [/quote] lul Why do you consider a hobo having a few dollars a problem? The drink sales won't double. People who want to drink, whether it's readily available or not, will drink. Simple as that. The 15-ish year old kids who couldn't buy in the first place, will continue to purchase alcohol by other means. Everyone under 18 will follow suit, and do the same. Also, I'm indifferent on this subject. Definitely leaning towards the 18yo legal drinking age, though, because part of me knows that a 16 year old kid isn't responsible/mature enough to handle the responsibilities of legally drinking alcohol. When do you guys get your driver's license over there, btw?[/quote]

[quote=Taneren]I'm danish but where did you find this? :/ I see no need to make it 18+ instead of 16. but I doubt it will stop us from getting the alcohol anyways :p[/quote]

[quote=The_Nameless_Bard][quote=Pølsemanden] The danish government is speaking of raising the drinking age from 16 to 18.. Stupid Commy-bastards! [/quote] it's 21 here, idk what you complaining about :P[/quote]

[quote=Dypheus]Imo, letting them drink on 16th age is still good, offcourse low-alchohol contained drinks (some mixes, and beer). Let those young ones get in touch how to feel drunk, that is beter when they try it when they are 18 (Dunno if its legal to drive in Denemark) and drive back home. Also below 18 they still under their parents control, so if the person already gets a alchohol-addiction on hes 16 then hes parents can grab in and give him help even if the person refuse it.[/quote]

[quote=Arkharan]This is nothing, most place in US is 21, here it's 18 in canada. (I actually find 21 should be the appropriate age for every places in the world Imo)[/quote]

[quote=Vavena]I think it should be 21 not 16 ^_^[/quote]
