While such helmets may save some people's lives, although their use
may result in some people being croaked in some instances, should not
the decision to wear them be up to the individual, not the government?
What's next, laws prohibiting children from climbing trees or adults
from using power tools or working on electrical/electronic equipment
without taking special classes and becoming certified?
