How so? He wasn't demanding the right to survive crashes when only a helmet makes that possible.

New York feels that people should have to wear helmets for their own safety

He felt his own safety was his own concern.

Who do you think would have ended up paying for his care for the rest of his life if the accident

The same people who pay for everyone else whose actions render them vegetables.

Sorry, as an advocate of civil rights (which especially includes minorities) I oppose anarchy.

So my increased ease of hearing/seeing vehicles and other hazards isn't worth $1200.

I understand the pov, I had a BF who felt that same way. It's still much like childish defiance.

In part it's a matter of principle, but if we really want to analyze it there's some deeper validity

Sounds like your real argument is with the other bikers; I'm just reiterating their arguments.

Agreed, having others in the car does make a difference.

Hence why your "I wouldn't wear a seatbelt in the back seat" comment didn't make a lot of sense

Depends on whether the driver, rather than the law, is the one insisting.

You'd place your own comfort over other people's safety?

It's more a comfort issue than anything else; it's not solely one.

You agree with him that the abortion debate is about a mothers convenience versus the babys life?

Fine as far as it goes, but public/private only matters to the extent others are affected.

Apparently so; "completely anarchy as long as its regulated to one's body" sounds nonsensical to me.

I'm with Joel. I always buckle up/helmet up, but I think such laws are asinine

why not just ban motorcycles all together, they are much more dangerous than cars

So do not smoking, eating right and regular exercise, but we haven't made them mandatory.
