Should the drinking age be lowered to 18?

seriously, think about it. all of us teens drink either way, it's not like we don't have older friends/family that could get the Alcohol for us, or it's not like we can't get fake ID's. Honestly, who are they trying to fool? I am currently talking to a police officer & he says he sometimes doesn't even bother to stop an underage drinking party because there is just too many in the neighborhood, he just tells them to keep it quite as do other police officers. won't it teach us to handle alcohol more responsibly .
