OK... I've entered into the pro vs anti helmet debate a number of times and of course it never gets resolved because it's an emotive argument that's subjective. I can understand the point of view of "It's my life and it's my right to risk it" even if I don't agree with it and feel it's too simplistic. However this one has got me bamboozled.
Just to remind folks, I come from a country that doesn't have a Bill of Rights. Our rights are Legislative, not mandated in the Constitution. I also have to admit that I'm not that familiar with the US Constitution & Bill of Rights. However I'm just wondering which of the mandated Rights are seen to be violated by demanding the use of a safety equipment when utilising a comparativley unsafe mode of transport on a public street? I just had a browse through both your Constitution and Bill of Rights and can't say I found anything that remotley relates to it, but I'd be happy to be enlightened.
