also, it's hard to scold someone about being 18 and taking PH's yet the same people are advocates of **** that's illegal. Just offer the kid some advice or pass the thread up completely and it'll fall off the front page and won't be missed.
These are in fact two separate ideas, although I can see why you would attempt to compare the two for the benefit of your argument.
We "scold" anyone under 21 for several reasons, the formeost being safety...... we show concern if you will, and it may be manifested in different ways ("no PH's for teens, jackass!", or "No one under 21 here, please").
I think I can say this for most poeple here hopefully..... for many of us legality is not the deciding factor of what is "right" and what is "wrong". There are many considerations that each person must weigh before coming to judgement on a subject, and (often times with myself) I find that my take on something may not be in line with what is legal.
As for your comparison, because I may believe in using somehthing illegal, this does not mean I believe the use of it should be wide open for everyone and have no considerations and/or guidelines. PH use under 21 has been discussed in detail many times before, so there is no need to repeat why it isn't adviseable here. Bascially what I am saying is that because something is illegal, and we choose to use it anyway, does not mean that certain understood "rules" and ideas regarding its use shouldn't be enforced here. There is a consensus that use of PH's under 21 is unaccpetable, regardless of if they were illegal or not (same rules with AAS), and this will be enforced here.
