should the U.S. drinking age be lowered to 18

Definately, this past Saturday night I took my daughter to a karaoke pub for her 18th Birthday and the bartender had told us to leave because she wasn't 21.

Dear God no. Half the 21 year olds can't handle drinking responsible. The last thing they should do is lower it. Trust me, our under age service men have no problem geting drunk.

I believe 18 year old in America are way irresponsible than those of Canada and Mexico. Americans are spoiled with to much lesisure time and not enough sense. LOL

If the government can legally call you an adult at 18, you should be able to drink. You don't have to ask anyone's permission at that point to get married and I think that's a lot more serious than a drink. Plus, most people are already drinking by then anyways. And hello, you can serve your country but not drink?! I'm so with you on that one! I don't drink myself and never will but I won't understand how you can be an "adult" and still not be able to act as one.
