I must say, people now a days never cease to do something that's so mind boggling, it's ridiculous. Kids wanting to tan at the age of sixteen or maybe even younger? What kind of an image are we planting into the minds of the young today? I would definitely agree with Michael that this is just crazy.
With all the kids wanting to tan and "look good," legislation had to be passed in order to keep things from getting out of hand. This really tells you something. If a sixteen year-old is wanting to tan so badly this time around, what will the next one want to do? Get implants?
I also like how Michael points out one of the lamest arguments made by Rep. Jodie Laubenberg, and his retort to the argument is just classic. Really, why would anyone want to argue against this legislation otherwise. It is fully evident that tanning alone causes health problems. Mix that up with an undeveloped body, a little bit of over tanning here and there, and you got yourself some nice skin cancer.
