| » ATTENTION! New Things & makeit18.com. |
Attention everybody;
New things will be coming to NeonMB very shortly.
Things that the old Neon didn't have and things that it did.
As of right now, Neon is currently backing the following website;
makeit18.com. Let me explain what the website is about;
It's about changing the legal drinking age to 18 and putting some extra responsibility on a human being.

1) INCONSISTENT/UNFAIR/ARBITRARY DEFINITIONS OF “RESPONSIBLE ADULT”!
18-year-olds can vote and serve on juries. 18-year-olds can get married and have children. 18-year-olds can go to war and die for their country. Yet
18-year-olds can not legally enjoy a beer or a glass of wine?!?
2) MISSED OPPORTUNITIES FOR EDUCATION – PART 1
Senior year of High School (particularly prom season) is a perfect time to educate students about responsible drinking and the dangers of
irresponsible drinking (drunk-driving, binge-drinking / alcohol poisoning, date-rape, etc.), yet parents and teachers are unable to do so because they
would be acknowledging and condoning underage drinking, which is against the law.
3) MISSED OPPORTUNITIES FOR EDUCATION – PART 2
Freshman year of college (particularly College Orientation week) is a perfect time to educate students about responsible drinking and the dangers of
irresponsible drinking (drunk-driving, binge-drinking / alcohol poisoning, date-rape, etc.), yet college Faculty, Staff, and Campus Administrators are
unable to do so because they would be acknowledging and condoning underage drinking, which is against the law.
4) FACT: UNDERAGE DRINKING HAPPENS – REGARDLESS OF THE LAW.
A recent study reported that more than 90% of Americans are drinking by age 20.
However, BECAUSE it is illegal, underage drinking happens secretly, unsupervised, in basements, in dorm rooms, etc. This is much more dangerous than
it would be in more public, controlled environments.
5) LISTEN TO THOSE CLOSEST TO THE ISSUE!
Countless High School and College faculty, staff, and administrators are surprisingly among those most supportive of a movement to lower the legal
drinking age to 18. In 2004, the president of Vermont's Middlebury College, John McCardell, Jr. wrote in The New York Times that "the 21-year-old
drinking age is bad social policy and terrible law" that has actually made the college drinking problem far worse. |
If you feel this is anyway unnecessary/inappropriate, please contact me via U2U and i will explain.
Thanks for your time and I hope you enjoy the coming changes!
PS!
PLEASE CHOOSE AN ANSWER ON THE POLL AND FEEL FREE TO EXPLAIN YOURSELF ON WHY YOU CHOSE THAT ANSWER.
