2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion.

I don't think I'd consider most 18 year old "full grown adults"
Old enough to be sent to die and kill innocent non white people for profit so they are old enough to be adults.
The vast, vast majority of 18 year olds are not in the military, and it's really weird to consider all 18 year olds adults because a tiny fraction of them are soldiers
I never once said they all were in the military or that them being in the military made them adults. I said if we consider them adult enough to be able to do that, then we need to just consider them adults in general.
Yeah, and I think that's stupid. It doesn't match reality. Just because 18 happens to be the age at which some policy says you're allowed to be a solider, doesn't magically make it the age that teens become adults.
And I think you are wrong.
Lol k. Agree to disagree.
At least the other guy has the benefit of legal definitions on his side.
My point is that the legal definitions don't match reality.
You failed to provide an alternative though. So as far as anyone else here knows your criteria is completely arbitrary.
Huh? Who says I have to provide an alternative? You're the only one making up arbitrary criteria here
Lol k. Agree to disagree.
