16 year olds can't even figure out what they want to do for the rest of their lives. Additionally, a lot of businesses have decided not to sell guns to anyone under 21. I think gun buying age and voting age should be tied together.

To me, the following items should all be tied to the ame age:

  • Voting
  • Gun ownership
  • Military service
  • Drinking alcohol / smoking cigarettes
  • Marriage

If the government is going to arbitrarily dictate age restrictions based on supposed maturity, they should be consistent about it.
