It is absurd to card everyone. It makes absolutely no sense whatsoever that I should have to card my 61 year father if he were to come into a store and I was the one selling him beer. Me being 40, I am pretty sure my dad is old enough, so what is the point in this silly law? and as far as carding goes I do not care if someone sells my 13 year old kid cigarettes or beer, it is not their problem but mine. The government needs to quit trying raise my kids for me.
i am sorry but i would like to think that if you found out that your child was smoking and drinking at age 13 and found out that he/she purchased it from a liquor store or gas station repeatedly that you would be livid with the fact that a simple "can i see your id please" was too much to ask..
