Then don’t send 18 year olds to war! Don’t let them join the military until 21! It’s sad when you have fought for your country and it’s ok to die but you can’t buy firearms, alcohol and other things. I know that feeling! It’s sad!

I would think it would be anything but sad to leave the weapons on the battlefield when you come home to peace. And what are the rates of our vets dying by suicide by firearm these days, while we’re at it?

So let me get this straight at 18 you can serve and die to protect the 2nd amendment but you can't participate in that freedom? If that's the way you want the law then you should also make another one that says you cannot serve before you're 21 also

Ambiguity of adulthood:a 16yr old can have an abortion without parental approval, an 18yr old can vote & go to war but parents income determines college aid, 21yr old can buy alcohol, a 24yr old is a child covered on parent’s insurance. New tax plan a child is not a child at 17.

Actions like this are why @kelliwardaz ran Flake out of the Senate.

Dianne I’m sorry the GOP is tryin to crucify you! You did the right thing. Anyone including Dr Fords friends could have leaked info. What a smoke screen! The Truth shall prevail!
