HERES another point to ponder...... How do we know this guy who committed
the Centerville crime was not underage and drunk. Statics prove alcohol
and crime go hand in hand and the younger the drinker the more likely a
violent confrontation....

Oh yeah, With that anarchy crap some of you are shooting off, how do you
know you would be supported if you screamed revolt. The majority would be
unsympathetic because they would be of age and its not worth going to jail
over a right that will be granted when you turn of age. Also, I've had my
problems but man if I saw you swing at an officer or ganged up on the
officer you would have to fight me and my friends. I ASSURE you, you would
not make off like the Leader you think you are.
I support change inacted by the majority and by democratic process and if
a small group wants to impose anarchy and take away my right to vote on an
issue, well I'll die and kill for my right to vote and accept all outcomes
of a DEMOCRATIC PROCESS, even a criminal Clinton is better then a small
minority dictating to the majority without due process!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
