I see this over riding - kids will be kids attitude - well Sorry 18 and over is an adult - granted not old enough to drink - but old enough to kill for your country. And if you as an adult at 20 accept a scholarship you know the rules.
Those of you trying to condone underage drinking because it was something you did back in the 60's / 70's / 80's when the drinking age was lower and the world was different - loose sight of the changes in the world since then.
Substance abuse is that. It is not something that should be dismissed / condoned / coddled - And when it leads to events of last week - well then actions are needed.

What in the heck is this big difference that makes the act of underage drinking worse today than it was in the 60s, 70s and 80s? Pray tell.
I think everyone on this thread has agreed that "actions are needed". Just because we don't agree with you on what those actions should be doesn't mean we are condoning it.
Oh, and as what was previously discussed in this thread, please learn how to spell the word "lose".
