I turned 18 in 1970, when the voting age in Australia was 21. On my birthday I was required by law to register for the draft, to be sent off to Vietnam to be turned into dogfood in the service of Amerika. I didn't comply because I knew it was wrong and as far as I'm concerned teenagers today have the rights to have a say in their future that I was denied.
