By trying to get the city to pass a ridiculous anti-party ordinance.

Basically, what they're proposing is that anyone held responsible for throwing a party where underage people are drinking would be fined $1000 per underage drinker and be subject to a six-month jail term (maximum penalties assumed). That's not including the civil charges- plus, "hosts could also be required to reimburse the county for the expense of sending sheriff's officers to the scene."

There are a whole shitload of problems with this ordinance that my friends have just discussed at length back at school, but what are your thoughts on this? Are there any organizations that can help us fight this?

as long as they don't try and curb the underage fucking

Or overage-underage fucking.

Absolute bullshit.

absolut bullshit

one day, my old college roommate came home wearing a home made t-shirt that said "Raise the drinking age" on it - he was often seen at home drinking doc mcgillicutty's straight from the bottle and stoned - he was pretty ahead of his time and now fixes computers in nyc.

How about they fix drunk driving problems first.

if some 19 year old wants to drink themselves to death, that's their right as an american

the more people who die that way the better actually

Strange.... Here they are trying to change the drinking age to 18

I thought the whole point of going to college was to drink yourself into a stupor for four years. Things have sure changed since I graduated, I suppose.

I had a rule in college that I would never drink 2 days in a row or 2 weekends in a row, everyone thought I was nuts.

for a few of the years I cut out all drinking and all sugar deserts. Man I was a cranky fuck that year, but I got great GPA

Sr year i had already cleared most of my hard Bio classes so I spent most of the time chasing (and catching) pussy and playing guitar. It was actually my bands best year as far as songs we put together and some super small "shows" we played.

I never really saw anyone do anything great while drinking heavily in school, mostly chicks would end up naked in a ditch some where and guys would end up w/ lost teeth from a fight w/ 10 frat boys w/ baseball bats
