Alcoholism In Teens

Bernie Mac was born in Chicago in 1957, Bernard Jeffrey McCollough. He grew up in Chicago, in a rougher neighborhood than most others, with a large family living under one roof. This situation provided him with a great insight into his comedy, as his family, and the situations surrounding them would be what dominated his comedy. Mac worked in the Regal Theater, and performed in Chicago parks in his younger days. He became a professional comedian in 1977, at the age of 19. He refused to change his image for television and films, and therefore was not very well known for most of the eighties. In 1992 he made his film debut with a small part with Mo’ Money (1992). This started a string of small parts in a string of movies, mostly comedies, including Who’s the Man? (1993), House Party 3 (1994) and The Walking Dead (1995). 1995 proved to be a turning point in his career. He did an HBO Special called “Midnight Mac” (1995), and took a part as Pastor Clever in the Chris Tucker comedy Friday (1995). Bernie Mac developed a cult following due to the movie and had many small parts since. In 1996 he starred in the memorable Spike Lee movie Get on the Bus (1996), and was very funny in Don’t Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood (1996). About this time he had a recurring role in the TV series “Moesha” (1996). Bernie Mac’s star was slowly rising from this point. His next couple of movie parts were more substantial, including How to Be a Player (1997) and The Players Club (1998). In 1999 Bernie Mac got his most high profile part up to that point in the film Life (1999/I) starring Eddie Murphy.

The new century started a new era for the brash Chicago comedian. He was a featured comedian in The Original Kings of Comedy (2000). This performance made him more of a household name, and led to many more major parts. In 2001 he played Martin Lawrence’s uncle in What’s the Worst That Could Happen? (2001) and later that year, was in the star studded remake of Ocean’s Eleven (2001). However his biggest success to this date has been “The Bernie Mac Show” (2001), which debuted in 2001 to instant acclaim.

Bernie Mac is a comedian that refused to change his image for Hollywood and says that his life in Chicago is who he is and there is nothing that will change that. While success was a long time coming, he is now a household name. He is a mature comedian who is very intelligent, very engaging in his TV, movie and stand-up appearances.

I see people hammered in their pics on facebook all the time with evidence of alcohol right in the picture, can you get into any trouble for this. I would assume is in not a good idea.
Yes that seems logical enough, but how do they get past privacy on facebook, are they allowed special access?

Photographing anything illegal is a bad idea. I’m a Public Defender, and I work with juveniles. Parents and School admins use myspace/facebook postings for Beyond Control filings. I’ve had lot’s of kids busted for terroristic threatening for talking smack or Assault for bragging about beating someone up on myspace/facebook.

What do Germans do when they find someone drinking under the age? Jail,beatings ect.

The drinking age in Germany is 16, so I don’t think much underage drinking goes one there.

Economy, unemployment rate, health care who cares about all that stuff. I want to know what hes is going to do about all the under age drinking on the college campuses? How do we solve this crisis people?!! let Obama know this crazy partying and sex needs to stop! It needs to fn stop now! Some young girl is gonna end up with the VD or a baby!!

he will stop it because we all have to work for his national civil defense union, there won’t be time for drinking, we will be too busy arresting nonconformists

Does under age drinking cause more crime, have you say and give an explained reason

Absolutely. By definition, underage drinking is breaking the law, so right off the bat, you’re committing a crime. Also, alcohol pretty much strips away all thoughts of crime and punishment, so the drinker thinks less and less about the consequences of his actions. This is bad enough when dealing with an adult, but dealing with a teen, who by and large are MUCH more emotionally volatile, it’s a powder keg just waiting to blow.

i have to do an english oral about something and drinking is something i feel strongly for
but what are the bad points of drinking young!

Underage drinkers don’t know there limits, act really irresponsible, would have more drinking related accidents, and have less ambition to become someone of importance.

I say these things based on an average, I’m sure not ALL my accusations would apply to ALL underage drinkers.

studentdotcom and shimmycocopuffsss come to the assistance of a worried mother. She is concerned about girls and underage drinking of alcohol and how it can lead to sexual activity. This is basically a public service announcement request for studentdotcom to help curb teen alcohol use.

can i get put on probation instead?

Lol…are you serious…what judge would let you drive…and be responsible if you do it again.

my county is about to pass a law that states if u are caught underage drinking its now a felony, which doesnt make much sense to me, how can something thats legal for a certain age be a felony for an underage, but pot is still a mistermeaner? does this mean there gonna legalize weed, or do they finally realize that pot is 10 times better for your health and socitey than liquer?

doesnt matter what laws they pass or how old u are, idiots are always gonna drive drunk, laws arent gonna change those imature minds.
yes i know an ounce of pot is a felony but that would be equall to like having a van full of liquer all in ur pocket.

you can catch a felony charge for having pot on you it just depends how much. i do not think they should charge you with a felony however for underage drinking, since you in your lifetime will be able to drink but pot is always illegal.
