On Should state mandate motorcycle helmets?

my opinion only is simple if your going to make people, inside of cars that are protected by atleast a bunch of steel, put on a seat belt (im pro choice on this issue if you want to decrease your chances of survival in an accident then thats your business)then would not it seem logical to pass a law to make drivers of motor driven cycles to put on a helment. I own a harley and wear a helmet for the record and i also was in a car accident that sent me flying 200 feet out of my car when the car that hit me caused mine to explode on inpact. By the way if i had a belt on ( wasn't the law at the time) i would have died. i realize now i was the exception not the rule. What is it about being on a motorcycle that excludes one from safety laws? i find it interesting. You can't compare going 55 mph on a motorcycle with someone walking on the sidewalk that they should wear helmets..lol..although i get your point you don't want to wear a helmet.

if someone sells peanuts on a street corner for a charity you are making a donation and getting peanuts for it, your not buying the peanuts. the things they send you aren't intended to solicit more dollars in my opinion but to pay, so to speak, in advance.

if your record is 6-10, you are 6-10 every teams has breaks that go their way and other things not go their way. Farve is one big hit away from DL and he will start out hot ( vikings have a pretty tame first few games )but will fade as his age and amount of hits takes it toll...go bears!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

no im saying that you increase the temptation when you put it out there in front of them. Im saying anyone would but we wouldnt' think teachers would sleep with students. not all teachers do just trying to make a point. they should be paid on the job they do and its a tremendous job.

would you then in fact create a situation in a bad economy where student test scores would be manipulated by teachers? desperate times bring desperate measures...

its about decreasing the odds. does wearing a seat belt guarantee that we don't die in an accident? no, but it does increase the odds that we may. Does wearing a helmet increase your odds of surviving a motorcycle accident or having substantial injuries? i think it does. With people on cell phones, texting, playing with ipods, talking with kids im seeing more and more accidents with vehichles hitting motorcycles from the side. in fact had a friend of my wifes parents die that very way on his motorcycle which is why i started wearing mine. it may or may not save me (depends on the accident) but im increasing my odds of it.
