Also apply age 21 to voting, gender reassignment procedures and the military ---- and I could get on board with this.

21 wouldn't work for the military.  Too many HS graduates go straight into the military. When my oldest son graduated, he and 4 others on his wrestling team all joined the Navy. If they had to wait until 21 many wouldn't join up.

MASSIE: "You know the Democrats today say they don't want to take ur guns away. Well then why does the legislation do just that? What they should say today is we don't want to take away all of the guns away from all of the ppl just yet because we know we can't get away w/ that." (Video)

Kalifornia tried this garbage and it's been overturned by the 9th circus court as unconstitutional. If it is signed into law it needs to be challenged.

Almost:  I'd extend franchise to 18 to 21 year-olds serving in the military, with it being stripped from them until reaching 21 if they are other-than-honorably discharged, with a court being allowed to extend their franchise in cases of medical discharge in cases where the medical condition was a result of their service.
And when they behead your own people in the wars which are to come, then you will know what this was all about.

I would agree with you. But only if all the conditions you put forth above are met.

For others who disagree about the "age 21" rule, let's be intellectually honest here.

This WOULD have prevented the Uvalde shooter from buying his weapons.
Wouldn't it be the same for the Buffalo shooter? I don't think he was 21, either.

But again:
21 to buy a gun?
Then 21 to vote, as well.

Otherwise... no deal.

It's only speculation at best to say he wouldn't have got a weapon. There are many crimes that happen everyday where people use illegally purchased firearms.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

"Illegally purchased"?

How about "Stolen"?

Ah, the old "Rittenhouse was illegally armed" leftist talking point rears its ugly head yet again.

Please note:  Rittenhouse did not own the dreaded AR-15.  Not a "straw purchase," which would be illegal.

Rittenhouse and Black admitted that Rittenhouse gave Black the money to buy the gun for him. Yes that is a straw purchase. Also Black giving possession of the firearm to Rittenhouse was also a felony. Yes Rittenhouse was illegally armed.

I guess we learnt something new about Killer today.  You should be proud they melted down the evil gun before it killed again.  If you have an AR-15 you should do the same, but you probably don't.

Man Who Straw Purchased Rifle for Kyle Rittenhouse Takes a Plea Deal, Avoids Jail

https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/man-who-straw-purchased-rifle-for-kyle-rittenhouse-takes-a-plea-deal-avoids-jail/

Quote
From the Associated Press . . .

The man who bought Kyle Rittenhouse an assault-style rifle when he was only 17 has agreed to plead no contest to contributing to the delinquency of a minor, a non-criminal citation, and avoid convictions on the two felonies he’d been facing.

The Journal Sentinel reports Dominick Black, 20, was charged in November 2020 with two counts of delivering a dangerous weapon to a minor, resulting in death. The two counts related to Joseph Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber, the protesters Rittenhouse fatally shot the night of Aug. 25, 2020, in Kenosha.

Black was 18 when he purchased the rifle for Rittenhouse at a hardware store in Rusk County in May of that year. At 17, Rittenhouse was too young to legally purchase the weapon.

What are you talking about? You make no sense. I stated the facts.

Yes, I see that now.  I wonder why the Prosecution didn't bring it up?
