Stop being a Karen.
Their body, their choice. Their decision ain’t got nothing to do with me or you.
Libertarian forever, forever Libertarian
Although, I'd always tell folks, over 65 MPH the only differance a helmet makes is opened vs. closed casket... Organs are still just as usable.
You mean as opposed to the huge taxpayer expense of allowing illegal immigrants to live amongst you while you pay all expenses. GmafbThe state of CA made helmets mandatory due to the huge taxpayer expense of medically treating the morons who didn't make the right decisions regarding helmets and insurance.
I agree with that approach, and is why I lean libertarian, but not 100% libertarian. As a side note, I've had dirt bikes most of my life and currently have a street legal Husky FE501S- which I probably won't ever ride on the street simply because I know how bad drivers are. In fact, I saw a beat up car driving down the road just this past week with a bumper sticker that read, "My driving scares me too."
The day the government mandated I must wear a seatbelt was the last day I ever wore a seatbelt.Not wearing a helmet while riding is wild, I'll never understand it.
Sure its not 'legal' everywhere. If not wearing your seatbelt wasn't legal, why would you not wear it? Even if its a .01% chance of mitigation, its worth it.....?
Why?The day the government mandated I must wear a seatbelt was the last day I ever wore a seatbelt.
This is my attitude. Don't tell me I have to do something. I'll tell you to pound sand, even if it's good for me.The day the government mandated I must wear a seatbelt was the last day I ever wore a seatbelt.
Because I do not do anything that anyone mandates. Least of all the government. I’ll cut off my face to spite my noseWhy?
So you don't pay taxes? You don't serve for jury duty? You wouldn't serve back in the day if drafted?Because I do not do anything that anyone mandates. Least of all the government. I’ll cut off my face to spite my nose
I am a free man living in a free state and no one tells me what to do. No one.
My body. My choice.
I try to pay as little taxes as I can legally get away with. My primary residency is now Florida.So you don't pay taxes? You don't serve for jury duty? You wouldn't serve back in the day if drafted?
I can relate, my parents told me the first word I learned to speak was "no".Why?
Oh i knoe all about high speed rain in my bassboat...hurts like a bitchThey do, a lot. Even rain on bare skin at highway speeds stings pretty bad.
You’ve apparently not been in a high speed impact. I have a split helmet from a triple digit crash at a track day. I was cleared the next day to ride the rest of the weekend. Did fracture a hip though.Here is my logic for riding with a helmet. The helmet isn't going to stop me from dying in a high speed crash. Where the helmet works is in a low speed tip over where you smack your head on the pavement and end up a vegetable.
This^^ though I’ll happily argue the track really does count. It’s just nice to have medics on standby but often time one is pushing significantly harder on track vs on street. That larger difference is run off areaIf no gear on sure that's closer to reality, with gear on that's heavily dependent on a lot of other variables...I know countless people that've been down on the street with proper gear on that walked away at much higher numbers with as little as a scraped hand from their palm sliders wearing off in the slide lol.
I've been down multiple times well over that number with little to no injury, but that's on track so it doesn't really count haha.
