All I can say is LOL at some of the gun-related claims on here. Really guys, this is the internet. If you boast about something, in 10-15min someone that actually knows the subject will show up and tell you how you're wrong.
-You can buy semiauto rifles in Texas at 18 (I dont know of a state that does not allow semiauto rifles & shotguns at 18, federal law requires handgun, machine gun, explosive and some other specific classes of firearms be limited to those 21+).
-The "magnesium ammo" for a shotgun is basically fireworks, no offensive utility.
-Dealers at gun shows must follow the exact same laws as dealers at their storefronts. You just get to see a lot more varied dealers (machine guns/explosive dealers are rare, but commonly visit all of the gunshows to drum up business)
-Anti-material (aka explosive) rounds are available for >0.50" weapons, but both the weapon and the ammo require a $200 tax be paid whenever they change hands, along with an FBI fingerprint check and your sheriff's signature stating that you're not a criminal.
-Machine guns are available if made before 1986 and the same $200 tax is paid and background check for explosive weapons.
-Magazines above 10 rounds were not allowed to be produced between 1994 and 2004, but that law is no longer in effect.
I think the 21 limit for alcohol is stupid, if you're considered an adult under the law, you should be able to do all of the adult things.

You realize that that is kinda hard to read right?
When I say semi-auto rifles I'm mainly speaking of AK and AR varients as well as the Barret M82.

It has to be said, seeing people post in random colours makes me want to smash a kitten's face in to my monitor.
And I like kittens.

I hardly consider cooking a pumkin with a magnesium round 'basically fireworks'.
Aside from that I won't get into the gun topic. We're talking about the drinking age in this thread. If you wanna talk about guns dig up my thread titled 'from a gunowners point of view.

anything fun is 'addictive' - the important differentiation is the ways in which they are addictive.
****ing is not 'more addictive' than smoking crack, despite a whole lot more ****ing going on than there is crack smoked. The only similarity is that people get funny if you do either of them on the bus.

And what have you gotten out of drinking said beverages? Alcohol is a depressant, I cannot equate fun with chemical induced depression, no matter how you package it.
Um, what? It's obvious that you've never ever been drunk. It's quite a lot of fun... Originally by: Laah T'Sin

Um, no. Not in the slightest.
Alchohol can be very addictive, but it's almost purely mental. It's also very different from person to person.
Whereas if you smoke tobacco regularly, you WILL get addicted.

Not only that, but Alcohol isn't always a depressent. For some people, it's a stimulant. It all depends on your own body chemistry.
For me, a few drinks can keep me awake all night better than a whole pot of coffee.

Alcohol is always a stimulant in small doses and a depressant in large doses. What exactly each individual body's definition of "moderate" and "large" is is where the different reactions come in.
