ive seen too many 16 yr old dummies drivin in their car, cell phone attached to their ear, swervin lanes and riskin thier own life AS WELL AS every other driver. thats a direct threat to my familys personal safety. yet the state says that becuase theyre 16, they are responsible enough to drive a car. WHY IS A KNUCKLEHEAD 16 YR OLD RESPONSIBLE ENOUGH TO ENDANGER MY LIFE ON A DAILY BASIS, YET A 20 YR OLD HAS TO GO TO PRISON FOR HAVIN SEX WITH HER?
IF SHES RESPONSIBLE ENOUGH TO DRIVE A CAR AND RISK MY FAMILY'S SAFTEY, SHES RESPONSIBLE ENOUGH TO GET KNOCKED UP AND SUFFER THOSE CONSEQUENCES WITHOUT ANYONE GOIN TO JAIL........
AM I WRONG ABOUT THIS?

I agree with your basic theory.
That is why there has been a push on in this country in many states to make it law that one is not allowed to have a permanent, unrestricted license until a person is 18 or over. The push is to make it that a person can not drive with out a parent in the car until that age.
I agree that many kids under 18 (and many over that age too) are too irresponsible to have control of a 3,000 pound missile sailing down the roadway at 70 mph.

You are mixing two different kinds of responsibility here. If someone is posing a risk to you and your family by erractic driving, they are not being responsible, and proving it. Statutory rape is a law that is meant to protect young people, male and female from being abused sexually by adults. The age, by the way varies by state.

Actually in a lot of states statutory rape is cut off at 16 unless the man is more than X years older than her.
Why are 18 year old men allowed to fight in the army but not drink?

Thats a very good point, I agree with you totaly. If they aren't mature enough to make the right decision when it comes to sex, then how can they make the right decisions controlling a 2 ton projectile such as an automobile.

yes you are wrong..statuatory rape is a crime..find someone your age..pay the child support and take responsibilty for your life..don't blame someone else for your mistakes
