Every motorcycle fatality presents a unique opportunity to provide much needed hearts, livers, kidneys, eyes, lungs and skin to terminal patients everywhere.
If this man had been wearing a helmet he could have ended up a quadrapalegic and been a burden on society. As it turns out, he will probably save the lives of 4 or 5 terminal patients by his generous sacrifice.
Luckily the people of South Carolina care enough for kidney and heart patients to allow motorcyclists to choose to ride without helmets, thus increasing the chances that needed organs will be made available. The heart and liver and kidney patients in California can only wish their legislature was as forward looking as South Carolina.
Yes, more opportunity for the medical-industrial complex, not satsified with enslaving healthy people under exorbitant medical "insurance" scams, to further enslave the poor schmucks who recieve hearts and lungs and kidneys by burying them in debt and providing a standard of living that requires hundreds of dollars of medication per day, the inability to recieve further medical "insurance" because of their pre-existing conditions, and on top of all that, they really don't feel very well with other people's spare parts hacked into their systems.
Dead motorcyclists are indeed good for the medical economy.
Past and future dead motorcyclists should be very proud.
Yes, or he might have walked away from the accident with nothing more than road rash and contusions, or maybe some broken bones. Hitting your head on the pavement is exactly the type of impact helmets are meant to protect from.

I've long been an prospective organ donor, but with the proviso that if my death occurs in a state with a helmet law, no donation is to be made but instead my organs are to go to a state medical research facility instead. And just in case some over-enthusiastic bodysnatcher decides to take it upon himself to *harvest* any organs, claiming to be unable to contact next-of-kin and disregarding my carried written instructions, I've also arranged for certain insurance monies to be used to place a bounty on the hands and eyes of the physician involved. Turn about is fair play.
It's quite a lot of money, which I'd rather see go to my pals for a swell party and wake. But it's a comfort to know that they'll do me that one final service if need be.
