Just damn....
Hope he gets to ride a motorcycle in Heaven.
These laws have nothing to do with safety as they are advertised, but are just another of the many ways politicians bring in revenue by issuing frivolous tickets while pretending to be doing it because they care and want to save lives. It usually works because most people like me who don't ride motorcycles and always wear seat belts either support or ignore the issue. It's the same thing they do with cigarettes. A lot of people who don't smoke don't care about the laws because it's something that doesn't affect them, and while I don't smoke I think a person has the right to do so and I'm not afraid of the exaggerated second hand smoking crap they always report.
The only problem with things like smoking is many smokers are going to be using taxpayer money to get treatment for any illness that it causes. That doesn't change my opposition to the anti-smoking laws it just makes me think we need to make some big changes in taxpayer health care programs, and I have absolutely no confidence that any of that will ever be changed significantly for the better. There will never be a significant and permanent cutback to any of those things. There are just too many ignorant people who don't understand how things work and those who just don't care.

I’ll agree to allow you to protect me from the danger of not wearing a helmet when you agree to protect yourself from the harm caused by cigarettes, alcohol, obesity, drugs etc.
I call propoganda on this. And if true, it has absolutely NOTHING to do with the fact that the founding father’s never intended gov’t to protect us from ourselves. If this is true, he gambled and lost. RIP.

The helmet protest ride is simply the most dangerous “ride” I have ever been on. You have hundreds of riders who all want to ride in their own groups and yet want to be part of this event. I stopped going after a few close calls while on this ride because it was not safe, and certainly not fun.
I still support the cause of: let those who ride decide.
