Apparently it's an unpopular opinion

But I don't actually think teenagers should be allowed to vote. Discuss.

But they can die in combat. That's perfectly fine. How about we stop treating 18 year olds like children?

It's not that teens don't know anything (that's common knowledge) it's that they don't know what they don't know. Prefrontal cortex hasn't fully formed at that age. How about we stop recruiting 18 and 19-year olds into the army instead.

That works for me. As long as we aren't hypocritical about which age marks adulthood.

I suppose I wouldn't raise the voting age, but the news out of Ohio that 17-year-olds will be able to vote in the election is ridiculous. Why not 12-year-olds, 8-year-olds? Fuck, give fetuses the vote!

But can the fetus vote at the moment of conception or are you in favor of late-term?

If fetuses could vote, abortion would be outlawed.

Used to be just male landowners.

If fetuses are old enough to get murdered they're old enough to vote

And can we get my dog some free healthcare while we're at it. I like him more than most people.

Yet never as stupid as some would think. Always remember that. They're crafty motherfuckers.
