Drinking has gotten far worse in the last 50 years. College fraternities have killed several students during their stupid initiation rites, and the victims are mostly 17-18 year-old kids. Binge drinking by the young and dumb is a big problem.

[@odemusvonkilhausen]

4:57 Dave, if you think that the drinking age of 21 stops Americans from starting to drink in their teenage years, then you're incredibly naive. Most people I know, started somewhere between 13 and 16. I'm, personally, a late bloomer and didn't start until I was 20. But that's very uncommon. It's kind of the American way, to rebel against authority.

[@nerofl89]

This is possibly the most factually incorrect statement I've ever read today (and considering this is youtube that is saying quite a bit). Changing the drinking age came about by bribing the states and increasing dependency on federal taxpayer money. The 21 drinking age is required in order to receive federal taxpayer's money for roads. There has never been any proof that increasing the drinking age reduced teenage or underage drinking, if anything there is far more proof that preventing people from being able to drink only increases the want of acquiring alcohol (see prohibition).

The thing about the US is that we are so culturally different, and I don't just mean by migration and settling patterns. For example, in my home state of Iowa, you can purchase an Armalite rifle (AR-15) at 18 years of age, by yourself, with no wait period, but in Illinois, just across the river, you have a 3 day wait period and a background check (mostly due to drug and gang violence). Meanwhile, Wyoming is the naturalists paradise; wide open spaces with rolling hills and mountains and not two states away is California with urban metropolises and beaches. The US is huge, and we don't have a singular culture, but don't be caught saying that the US has no culture, just many smaller subtle ones.

Speaking of people being very different a short distance away. I am a minutes away from Garden Grove in Orange County. Years ago when my father a Vietnam War veteran came to visit he almost had flashbacks because the nickname of Garden Grove is “Little Saigon” and it has a very rich vibrant Vietnamese Community (with some of the best restaurants for both French and Asian food -Gordon Ramsey loves the spring rolls from Brodard’s Chateau a Vietnamese fusion French restaurant here). To my right is the largest Latino community in the United States, Santa Ana where one could literally live without hearing English if one chose to. Some of the best Mexican food to be found here. I believe the complexity in the UK, in the US, and in other places, gives some great perspectives and teaches us to be overlook the foibles of others as we expect to overlook our own.

The drinking age in the US needs to go back down to 18, or the enlistment age needs to go up to 21. As it is you can enlist when you are 17 and 4 months if your parents sign off.

But old enough to kill and be killed.

Truly, there is nothing worse than a Canada, the only country fit to be America's hat lol

[@omahacheddar8471]

Funny this is from a Canadian...Moose broke up with him.

[@franzliszt8957]

I love how no one gets it... no one...

[@scorchogrey2385]

I am from the most conservative state in the union and we were drinking young too…..we just hid it 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@brianhardy612]

You guys should react to History Matters. They are only about 3-4 minutes long each and there are several of them and they are all animated.

[@madisonroberts258]

Don’t worry, Americans know how to drink long before 21

[@RiseOfThePhoenix30]

Not that I am a big drinker at all but think of this my Uncle died in WW2 at 17..He could give his life for his country but not legally have a beer and cigar as many many others have.

[@cateyez465]

Sorry but no 12 year old should be drinking most of them haven’t even hit puberty.... you can’t legally buy a gun until you’re 18 and drinking age until 21. Growing up where I grew up the only reason to own a gun was for hunting during hunting season. Which you can’t tell me you haven’t learned since you were young...WTF does this video have has as credit..... visit the US and see what you see instead of what you see by this judgmental video.... judge by yourself not others. Just Saying!!!!!!

Your "giving up" comments came perilously close to arrogantly dismissive of people who are thrilled to have a mobility scooter that actually allows them a chance to live life beyond the four walls of their homes. Like me. I'm an obese person, and I've had dozens of comments about my weight being the source of my problems with mobility. The condition I have causes weight gain and extreme pain and numbness and weakness. Without the security of the scooter, i'd jut not leave my home, sometimes not even my bed. And yes, you did add on a bandaid of comments about those who actually "need" scooters, but you're judging people based on their weight, as being persons who've just given up. Bad form, guys.

[@sunniertimer598]

It was the Canadian who was judging. Sorry to hear about your condition. I also have some issues. It seems there are many people now that find it conveinent to pick on Americans for their weight. There are heavy people everywhere in this world. America is such a great country that those who don't like it must find something to gripe about. Pretty lame though. I think office blokes try to be fair most of the time and I give them credit for that.

Why is Stella Artois so cheap and the butt of jokes over in the United Kingdom?? Here in the United States Stella Artois considered a posh/Fancy beer and it's about $10 a six pack or about $5 a bottle if you go to a bar. But then again y'all are close to Belgium and we're far away. 😂😁🍺

[@slimreaper...skinnyman5467]

It has a stigma attached to the brand for being associated with violence and spouce abuse ...and gets labelled as a wife beaters drink purely because its dam strong and wont be responsible for your actions once ball bagged(drunk)!

[@oWatson]

Lolll no it is not a posh/fancy drink lmao what??

[@VivaCohen]

Americans start drinking at at like 14-16 and drink until about 22, then don't drink much at all after that.

[@MayTheSchwartzBeWithYou]

That's a broad generalization that certainly doesn't align with my experience.

[@sumikolibby3203]

USA is a strange,curious and a large mix of deverse life styles. But through my eyes I don't understand the aggressive behaviors against ourselves and lack effort for more understanding of one another on a larger scale. To hate and blame is a tactic of corrupt in power. It hinders progress. We shouldn't be short sided. We are more than that. We need to focus on our u r children. Once we get bizarre corruption under check then we can be the great nation that could lead by example. To respect not discriminate. Our differences between us is one reason we're unique. We can't change history but we can learn to not repeat mistakes. We are beautiful,strong ,wise and a place to be. If we could only realize it. One thing for sure we are quirky and odd. I love it.

[@blakerh]

Pretty much everyone I grew up with started drinking in high school. But in college they started drinking more often. Natty Light!

[@welcome1971]

Just so ya'll know the "both sides thought Black people should be free" was a joke. The South still doesn't think Black people should be free,

[@rhoetusochten4211]

He meant free as in "costs me nothing" rather than "can do what they want".

[@odemusvonkilhausen]

Let me guess, you're not from the south, but you've seen it on TV? I've found white people in the south to be more tolerant than white people in other places, because the percentage of the population that is black is greater in the south. Take cities like Atlanta or Richmond, which are predominantly black. You're saying those black people don't want to be free? What south are you talking about?

[@markcassady6844]

You’re just plain wrong

[@captahab6370]

I normally find the “American here! just wanted to say...” a little cringe, sorry my American peers who comment that all the time 😂 But I did just want to say that drinking isn’t illegal under 21. Generally you can drink at whatever age you like in your own home. It’s not illegal for say, a 12yr old to drink at home at dinner or something. It’s only illegal in public really. But in the home it’s normally legal. Of course this varies state by state 😂, im speaking from a Maryland perspective.

[@domination1985]

21 to drink and smoke but can join the military at 18 also in the south drinking may start at 10
