ويل لأمّة تضحّي بشبابها من أجل شيبها
الجنرال ميشال عون

Starting from this, I don't think FPM should have a problem with lowering the age of voting to 18 (that's in principle) ... After all GMA knows the best how much 18 + year old "Kids" served their country and how much they sacrificed.
So the reasons stating that this specific age group isn't mature enough being intellectually incompetent or easily manipulated or brainwashed or cybersex maniacs or blablablablabla is just Crap and BullSh*t ... and for many other opposing reasons that I could spend more than one hour stating them.
The problem is that FPM objection to law came somehow unclear to the public opinion: stating that it should come as a whole package or it's not mature enough to be discussed yet on the table ... But all these reasons are weak regarding to the subject being proposed ... Specially it looked like a battle between Berri and GMA and GMA came out victorious on the expense of this group (and i blame the media for this especially FPM) ...
First you mislead this group and now you are insulting their intelligence !!!
It's your duty to explain and give clear answers to a nearly quarter million who are obviously really disappointed from what happened ...
Care to elaborate or at least start practicing what you preach ??? ... maybe this will relief the tension that was build up few days ago.
Thank You ...
