    Can you sell liquor if you are under 21?

    This is a state by state issue, but most don't state any minimum age required for sales. I looked up 3 states and each didn't have a minimum age on the elevated 21 year old requirement, but one (FL) still has the 18 year old minimum on the books which did have a minimum age to sell at 16. I thought it was funny.

    I recommend you look up your state laws, they may differ.

    LOL...

    I’ve seen 12 year olds smoking away quite happily.

    14 year olds getting drunk.

    And 16 year olds high on heroin.

    So many of these laws are so utterly pointless.

  • Yes

    Because they can still charge you as an adult for violating the law.

    Probably, if you work in a convenience store. You would have to check with local management of said store.
