Dems, if someone is mature enough to vote at the age of 16, shouldn't they be able to buy a handgun at 16?

How about it?

Let the 16 year old's vote on it and let's see...

This fails as a false comparison fallacy.

I think getting out of mom's basement by 50 should be a pre-requisite.

How about it?

How about what – what does this have to do with ‘Dems.’

 

[Damaged Eagle]

Sounds like they're selective service candidates to me if they can vote.

*****SMILE*****

Why? The basement is nice and cool plus they come in handy during a tornado.

Any 12-year-old can handle a gun safely ... just a couple of rules to follow is all ...

We don't let 18-year-olds drink booze ... no way should they be voting ... too immature ...

Adolescent brains are not fully developed. The answer is NO.

But they're not too "immature" to go and fight and die in the military, right?

Young men are managed and disciplined in the military.. That's why they have drill instructors and platoon leaders.

How about it?

I do not believe that 16-year-olds are mature to vote. Regardless, they sure as hell should not be allowed to own a gun. Look at how adults have managed to botch things up with guns.

 

[yidnar]

the fact that the left entertained allowing inexperienced 16 yr olds to vote is further proof that they rely heavily ...very heavily on ignorance to gain more power .

the only falsehood here is you....

Maturity has nothing to do with military service ... it's all about discipline ... I take it you never served ...

Funny how your ilk remained ignorant way past the age of 16 and gave that grifter trump all kinds of power and that is why he likes you because you are easy to manipulate.

What does immaturity have to do with voting?
"Adults" vote now and look at us, FFS. Our fucking President cant finish a goddamn sentence. Threatens to fight civilians. Tells the other side they dont deserve to know his opinion. Look at the fat fuck before him. And before him. And before him. etc etc etc
Open up your eyes, morons.

 

[Stann]

How about it?

I don't know any sixteen-year-old responsible and mature enough to vote or handle a gun. That would be total negligence.

Agreed, their hormones are out of control, they are unpredictable, not a good risk driving, allowing them to have guns would be ludicrous and very very dangerous for them and anyone around them.

15 should be the age where you can legally consume alcohol, smoke, vote, and buy firearms.

There's a huge misconception that we had when we were kids, that the adults knew what they were doing and would take care of all of our problems. Now, I know better.
