21 or 18?

in my opinion it is unfair for an 18 year old to be considered an adult but not be allowed to consume alcohol. i believe that if the person is able to vote, be drafted, smoke cigarettes and forced to serve jury duty should be able to consume alcohol. i am not saying that they should lower the drinking age to 18 i just think maybe we should consider these factors. if the government doesnt want to lower the drinking age why dont we raise the other laws. it is not fair that tomorrow i could be drafted to go to war but i couldnt go to a bar and order a drink. if im not mature enough to drink alcohol how could i be mature enough to vote!!!!

Presidential Term Limit

i dont really agree with a term limit for a president... i believe that if a president is able to be elected for more then 2 terms doesnt he deserve to be there? it takes a lot of positive support in order to be elected! you can say it may turn into a monarchy or a dictatorship but in my opinion it never would. our country is full of people who stand up for wat they believe in and we wouldnt let one person rule our country. i believe the president must have done something right to be elected for a second term let alone a third or even a forth!

The FCC

According to the first constitutional amendment, Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech. But how can the Federal Communications Commission fine public television for profanity...? It doesnt really make sense to me... it specifically states they can make any laws limiting your freedom of speech. I understand some words may be "inappropriate" but do you honestly think kids wont here these words sooner or later? bad words arent bad until we, as humans, say they are bad. Think of the word Dick.... as in detective. Its been in our language since the early 1900's but now when some one says that word it is used negatively. we alter the words on our own they were proble never supposed to mean what they do now. and for the fcc.... do something ppl actually care about bc with our generation curse words will just become commons words.

Swine!

So for those who don't know what the swine flu refers to influenza caused by any strain of the influenza virus endemic in pigs (swine). Swine flu is common in swine and rare in humans. People who work with swine, especially people with intense exposures, are at risk of catching swine influenza if the swine carry a strain able to infect humans. However, these strains rarely are able to pass from human to human. Rarely, SIV mutates into a form able to pass easily from human to human. The strain responsible for the 2009 swine flu outbreak is believed to have undergone such a mutation.

This in my opinion is ridiculous... i went to my local Costco the other day and i saw a lady wearing a mask i thought to myself is that really affective? so i researched it... "Mexico has handed out millions of facial coverings, U.S. officials have held off, saying there is little evidence of their effectiveness. Some doctors warn they might even be harmful, causing people to take risks, like venturing into crowds or neglecting to wash hands, in the mistaken belief that the mask protects them."

Why wear the mask if its not going to help it makes no sense to me and it just seems like the african killer bees or even SARS.... what ever happened to SARS? i havent heard anyting since around 2003... i think this swine flu is going to die out as quick as SARS
