Letting teenagers vote fits with the value of subverting the entire culture and overthrow the govt. If you want people to decide America needs to throw away the constitution, making them decide voting is broken helps. To make them think voting is broken, lower voting age to 13. Theres also a double whammy there as it helps subvert the family unit as well. Makes kids feel a little more independent of their parents sooner.

Policeman with a random 9mm pistol or even SWAT dude with a Mossberg and a riot shield =/= US Armed Forces with fucking tanks n drones n shit.


It's to fight a police state, not a state army. A police state would not utilize jets and tanks against the population since it would kill citizens they'd prefer to oppress and damage too much infrastructure, infrastructure necessary to responding to an insurgency.

the youth is more liberal. as are most demographics that live off of someone else's money. allowing them to vote is the simple and transparent attempt of liberals to expand their voter base.

Whether that is anyone's goal is beside the point, it is a topic worthy of discussion outside of pragmatic politics.

meanwhile in germany the political left is getting more deranged by the day
the food bank in the city of essen gets a massive outrage in the media and from left wing parties
the food bank chairman jörg sartor decided to stop accepting new migrant recipients due to the migrant influx pushing many germans in need away
there have even been scenes of arab men pushing old ladies around and aggressive behaviour

here an english source for an overview
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5422897/German-food-bank-BANS-migrants-locals-displaced.html

so while the overwhelming majority of people visiting the food bank still are migrants or at least with migrant background (~75%), he is still labeled a nazi for daring to ensure that poor old ladies with pathetic pensions can collect some extra food

thats how jörg sartor found his truck yesterday morning

Ive reached the point where this doesn’t even make me mad anymore, might have even chubbed a little at the aggressive gmilf shoving
That nazi needs to hire immigrants and offer his spare bedroom

sure it is. but in my opinion, it's pretty obvious that persons under the age of 18 should not be allowed to vote.

what do high school students know about taxes, why should they be allowed to vote - among other things - on taxes while they didnt even have the chance to pay taxes yet? why should they be allowed to vote on tax policy and various other things that dont even affect them (yet)?
what do high school students know about values and philosophy, given that almost all of them have not left their parents home and grew up absorbing their parents ideas and beliefs without ever even having had the chance to stand on their own feet, experience how the world works and develop convictions of their own?
what do high school students know about the way society is, or should be, functioning?

in the end, the voting age should be where most young people finish up school and start standing on their own feet. and that is around 18 years.

Question to you and others that have AR-15's or other automatic weapons: would you give them up if they were federally banned?
