NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) – Comer Wilson hasn’t had to show his ID to buy beer in a while. Maybe it’s the 66-year-old man’s long white beard.
Starting Sunday, gray hair won’t be good enough. Wilson and everyone else will be required to show identification before buying beer in Tennessee stores—no matter how old the buyer appears.
“It’s the stupidest law I ever heard of,” Wilson said. “You can see I’m over 21.”
Tennessee is the first state to make universal carding mandatory, says the National Alcohol Beverage Control Association. However, the law does not apply to beer sales in bars and restaurants, and it does not cover wine and liquor.

Well, I think that it is a GREAT idea!
Annoy people with enough stupid laws so even the most dense can see the stupidity.
More laws to correct more problems that the laws created in the first place.
When do we realize that laws don’t prevent underage drinking, they encourage it. Prohibition demonstrated it. Being illegal, it’s kool. Being illegal, when they turn 18 or 21 or one of their friends do, it’s drunken city.
Same as all drugs. You can’t prevent it with a law. All you can do is raise the price!
