I noticed there are only 4 states without any helmet laws at all. Iowa, Illinois, Colorado and New Hampshire. I like the fact that some states only have helmet laws for minors which I think is a good thing. IMHO, people should decide if they want to wear a helmet. I don't like laws that protect people from themselves.

Once you realize that you belong to the government and they are just trying to care for you it all makes sense. We are all too stupid to make decisions for ourselves and need smarter people to make them for us. Smoking, seatbelts and helmets are issues that we are simply not capable of dealing with.

We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.
