Mandatory Helmet Law

[farrellcollie]

I would rather legislate who can and cannot have pets or children instead helmets. Of course I also believe that I am the best person to make the procreation/pet owning decisions - apply to me in triplicate.

Seriously I think that Americans have gone mad with trying to protect themselves and in particular children from life. I do usually wear a helmet - but would be no more or less inclined if it were another stupid law. I have been known to run with scissors.
