Like the bicycle helmet laws mentioned above, look at motorcycle helmet laws. My bike, my head, my life, my risk. I use one because I want to and not because I "have" to; for me, I think it's a great idea. I do not give a rat's patootie about the guy roaring down the road on a crotch rocket in shorts and sandals without a helmet. The chance of a motorcycle accident killing anyone but the rider are so slim they are almost non-existent. However, the do-gooders in Arizona still clamor for a mandatory helmet law. Their excuse is fire, police, and hospital services cost the "public" money. My answer, the public should stop funding welfare programs whether for food, housing, or medical care. Oh, add education to that as well. Sure would stop the problem with illegals but no one is supporting that, are they? Too many people just don't understand MYOB. Funny, the American Legion and VFW Posts don't run afoul of state non-smoking laws. Seems the states know better than to mess with Veterans!
