Remember Starship Troopers, Only people who served should be allowed to vote

I've said it before in another thread, but I'll say it again.

I don't really care what the voting age is, but let's at least have it make sense.
You can vote when you're 18.
You can serve in the military at 18.
You can drink when you're 21?

Remember you must be 21 to own a pistol.
You kill but you can't own a pistol real smart.

No, no, no, no, everyone knows that the voting age should be the same as the age you can legally buy liquor, get a drivers liscence, and defile sheep, 35....

I too find it oxymoronic that the legal age to vote/die in the military/pose nude

/ vote aren't the same,

kind of non sequitoric if you ask me, but YMMV

And what about self-righteous assholes that join the military and then take an "I'm better than you" attitude

That's because I am better than you

I know you're just joking here, but I take great offense to anyone saying they're better becuase they served and I didn't. I TRIED. After the Air Force, Army, and Navy, all said "nope, sorry, you have asthma, we can't take you" I decided I wouldn't even bother wasting the Marines' time.

So its kind of a sore subject with me.
