I disagree if it were a regular parent it would be news saying how horrible of parents they are allowing an underage drinking party. My problem with this situation is the fact there were minors drinking at her house and she is in no way facing any legal charges.

It would only be news to that particular community. Busy bodies on reddit wouldn't be carrying torches because this wouldn't be news.

Vermont has a long tradition of minor's party with adult knowledge. My theory is most of the people mad were the ones not invited when they were kids and projecting their past angst that they never came to terms with.

I'm not sure where the torch carrying business is coming from nor did I deny adults knowing/hosting underage drinking parties. All I want is for everyone to be treated the exact same no matter your social status or what your occupation is. I'm mad that she isn't getting into trouble for hosting an underage drinking party whilst if it had been a regular working person not in state government they would have been arrested on the spot. She should be held accountable like everyone else. Please explain to me how this is a torch weilding mentality.

Wow. Here you are on reddit proclaiming how you don't have a problem with underage drinking OR with adults drinking with minors.

What, and I ask this with all *due* respect, the fuck is wrong with you?

Doing dangerous and unnecessary things safely is all a part of the human condition. The act in which you condemn has been done since the invention of alcohol itself. I've seen more people turned off by alcohol drinking as teenagers than I have addict lost to it.

Not so kindly and without out any respect, because none is due, get a life.

Well, sir, it appears to me that you are no better at judging human beings than you are a specimen of one and I shall bid you adieu.
