You can tell the arguments that are fairly weak when people start exaggerating things...It makes no sense to say I don't need the gov't telling me what to eat. A helmet law isn't the next step towards Big Brother. I mean come one we can go the other way on this too, broaden our view to other laws. If we don't need the gov't to tell us to wear helmets and keep our brains in place, we don't need them to tell us not to do 150 down a residential street. Or we don't need to be told that we shouldn't keep loaded weapons concealed in our glove boxes. I mean come on we know if we're the type to get pissed and pull it out and shoot the guy who cut us off and we'll know well enough to leave the gun behind if we're a violent person like that. I know its wrong to murder so why should the gov't tell me not to kill? See where I'm goin with this? Yeah, its silly and makes no sense but neither does the argument I don't need the gov't telling me to be safe, or what to wear, watch, eat sleep, whatever. There's many laws around largely to make some money, but they're not there unless they have some benefit for society as well. What I'm seeing mainly is just a mistrust of gov't and such...
