regarding jox and others talking about the drinking age:
what matters with that isn't whether people think the drinking age is right or not.
what matters is that the drinking age being 21 is the LAW, and regardless of what someone thinks, and regardless of the laws in other coutries, it is irresponsible for a broadcaster to show it, even if it does exist.You wouldn't see a show depicting 14 and 15 year olds driving, would you?
You wouldn't see a show about 17 year olds forging birth certificates to join the military, would you?
What about a show about underage girls trying to get abortions without parental consent?All those things happen, and have happened before.
All Illegal.So why is drinking the one thing that people are so lax on?
And what does their drinking on the Rich Girls show tell underage kids? That it's a privelege to them because of the wealth? That because it's on TV it's okay?
