I agree with Booker & Harris: it’s time to up the fight against NRA obstruction towards common sense gun safety legislation. We MUST AND WILL have universal background checks, outlaw bump stocks & ban military assault weapons. Also why I think we should lower the voting age to 16

16-year-olds in this country live with a risk of gun violence and other possible dangers more than older people do, and they should have a chance to weigh in on who makes public policies that affect them. Younger people are much smarter today & in many ways we have failed them.

I’m going to have to disagree. In my experience as High School Teacher for many years, they are NOT prepared to be Voters at that age. They are all emotion, easily manipulated, by both emotion/leftist teachers and no experience/cognitive ability for big picture analysis! IMHO

I hear that. And at first, that was pretty much my feeling about it as well. But I have to ask you, can we say any differently about the population of 18 years and older? Have we done right by our young? Have we not abdicated our right to be the only deciders?

This is absolutely the worst argument for lowering the age requirement! Is this a parody account?
