Now that doesn't make sense. | Well, drinking alcohol has a direct effect on a person so their behavior would be impaired thus leading the person to do something stupid like getting behind a steering wheel. The only victim would be the person who would get struck by this foolish person. But you make a good point about the age requirement for joining the army. Most soldiers feel rather proud serving their country although the moral could be down these days, I'm sure. I guess that's why some go into the military. Others even think of it as a way to a college education or to get away from their parents. I think with everything in life there's always a risk but when you decide to drive drunk, that's harming someone's life in the process - not so much yours. __________________  HERE'S WISHING EVERYONE MUCH HAPPINESS & PROSPERITY IN THE NEW YEAR |
