Only somewhat related, and I'm imagining this is one of those topics that this was made for...

...but I really don't get why people are so against helmet laws.

I can go into just about any bike store, even the ones that are more sportbike focused, and there are racks of "Helmet Laws Suck" stickers. People don't typically complain about seatbelt laws. Helmet laws seem like a similar thing. So why all the fuss?

Is it just because people with more arrogance than sense want to be ~rebels~ and resent being held down by The Man? I see the appeal of being a rebel, but does it have to come with stupidity?

Also, I love my helmet because it's covered in eyeballs.

I would look 2000% less cool without it.
