What's New For 2019?

The dreadful year of 2018 has come and gone.  The drinking age remains 21 in all 50 states and DC, the toking age remains 21 in the increasing number of states that legalized cannabis, and Tobacco 21 laws have continued to spread further (though it seems like their spread is decelerating a bit).  Thus, our "18 in '18" campaign failed miserably.  So what will become of 2019?

It remains to be seen what 2019 will be like, but we must redouble our efforts this year and never give up.  Remember, first they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, and then you win.

Have a Safe and Happy Holiday Season

(This is a public service announcement)

It is that time of year again when the holidays are upon us, and many of us Americans (and around the world) will be celebrating with alcohol and/or other substances.  We at Twenty-One Debunked would like to remind everyone to be safe and celebrate responsibly.  There is absolutely no excuse for drunk driving at any age, period.  We cannot stress this enough.  It's very simple--if you plan to drive, don't drink, and if you plan to drink, don't drive.  It's really not rocket science, folks.  And there are numerous ways to avoid mixing the two.  Designate a sober driver, take a cab, use public transportation, crash on the couch, or even walk if you have to.  Or stay home and celebrate there.  Or don't drink--nobody's got a gun to your head.  Seriously.  And the same goes for other psychoactive substances as well, and a fortiori when combined with alcohol.

ARRIVE ALIVE, DON'T DRINK AND DRIVE!!!   If you plan to drink, don't forget to think!  The life you save may very well be your own.
