And some how alcohol is socially acceptable but not weed
Neither one should be acceptable. Period. They both do more harm than good. Anyone who needs either one should be locked up in advance so they cant do harm to others.
19 years old & not old enough to drink to start with
Whoever sold her the alcohol or gave it to her should be held accountable as well. Its been done many many times before. The server gets prison time too.
