Unknown speaker: What makes you believe that by allowing 18 years olds to drink intoxicating beverages they can cope with this when many mature grown men and women cannot? We have a rapidly increasing number of divorces, one of the main reasons for divorce is alcoholism. Increased juvenile delinquency and adult crime are also byproducts of the alcoholic parent or parents. It?s ironic to me that we build alcoholic detoxification centers on the one hand, and on the other we are now encouraging 18 year olds to have the right to drink alcoholic intoxicating beverages. We have on our highways an ever increasing amount of traffic fatalities, are you going to provide the catalyst that will increase the carnage on our highways? Members you have in your hands by your vote the lives of individuals. Giving 18 year olds the right to drink they will infringe on our rights to use the roads and highways and make a menace to use them.
