Drunk driving or gun violence committed by those under 21 doesn't require that a large portion of society already agrees with the 18-21 year old committing the act. I have no problem with people shooting guns for fun, I just believe that it can't possibly hurt for them to be 21 or doing it with the consent of their guardian.
