Regarding Helmet Laws:

I have been a registered nurse now for 8 years. Of those 8 years I have worked mostly in various intesive care units. This includes neurosurgical units. I wish everyone could see firsthand what a head injury patient looks like. Trust me, you would wear you friggin' helmet every time you went out. You would also see how terribly families suffer when their loved one was just too cool to wear a helmet.



Agreed, but it should still be up to the rider. Using the same logic our legislators could outlaw bikes altogether.

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.
