Not a bad idea

Also note that there's a documented increased risk of dying when you're in the military, regardless of whether you're actively being shot at.

Yeah, unless you change the mandatory draft registration age to the voting age, I'm not buying this.

And good luck selling this to the military.

P.S. There's no minimum age to purchase guns in a lot of States btw.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_laws_ ... e#Overview (yeah I'm aware Federal Law doesn't allow selling to people below 18)

P.P.S. Smells like more GOP efforts to try to increase their chances in elections by not letting votes by "those people." Of course, they'd never try that. /s Signed the Geriatric Old (White) People's party. :lol:
Someone found the motive here. The GOP is deathly afraid of the youth vote. It probably doesn't help them that they haven't won a popular vote in nearly 2 decades.
While they're at it they should raise the age to buy a gun to 25.

Yeah, I know you're probably being sarcastic and using automatic righty triggers to make a point, but neither of the "25 year old" arbitrary minimum ages would make logical sense.

P.S. Our guns are sacred under the 2nd, but the right to vote isn't sacred. Ignore all the rest of that constitution! :P

P.P.S. It would make much more sense to ban guns entirely, along with not allowing "those kinds of people" to vote!

I’d just say you have to file a tax return and pay something.
