Seat belts

[OldOwl]

Even though I used to race B Stock NHRA cars, I never wore a seat belt til my daughter was born. I got so used to it setting an example for her it feel weird NOT wearing one now.

The seat belt law was one of the most un-american laws ever passed. It showed all citizens how easy it is for the feds to impose any restrictions that they want to upon the citizens of this country.

Seat belt law what's this law you speak of? Oh yeah that's right in New Hampshire we live by our state motto "Live Free Or Die!" We don't have a seat belt law and every attempt to pass one has failed! The only thing they changed was making it 18 and above (so all the kids would be safe). I laugh my ass off when I see the "Cops across the country are cracking down DOES NOT MATTER WHERE YOU LIVE click it or ticket".

I always wear my seat belt whether the Government tells me to or not.

The Insurance underwriters of North America can be thanked for that one...

Mitigating risk, risk to the investors...

There is more out there to be read on the subject. Google it... Eventually the right of the gun owner will come under fire...

The next personnel freedom that I believe will come under heavy fire soon will be smoking and the use of tobacco products. With the government controlled, socialist style health care system that was thrust upon us by the democrats, the mitigation (if not complete elimination) of risk factors leading to increased operational costs will become a main focus. Any behavior that is deemed unhealthy will be up for debate. I pray to God that the socialist health care reform BS is repealed and intelligence prevails...

I wear my seat belt not because I'm told to, but because I spent some time on a volunteer fire/rescue team. I've seen the damage that the energy of momentum and inertia can do to the human body, first hand...

Now smoking is one thing I will be glad to SEE gone. It's so gross and it effects more then just the person smoking the cancer stick!

Ya. I like those people who ***** about my cigar (organic natural vegetable matter) and then hop in their V8 powered Suburban SUV and spew toxic fumes into the air.

How come the government says you have to have an anchor and line, fire extinguisher, flare gun, paddle, horn, lights, and wear a life jacket on deck when underway on a boat, and nobody says boo. But then fight like hell about a seat belt in a car? I don't get it.

So does the exhaust from your car! Stop Driving!

True, it does. But I don't park my car at the front door of a store and make every shopper walk through it. But you are right some people (the lazy obese assholes, the ones you see in the motorized wheelchairs) park in the NO parking zone (fire zone) because they cant walk their fat ***** five feet to the door. Kids cant speak up and say "Hey mom & dad your killing my lungs put that out". When the government rolls out the new packaging next year (the coffin ,dead body, person with cancer and so on...) It will paint the cancer sticks for what they are. Maybe we can save some of our young ones from the hard ships of smoking.

But anyway, back to the topic at hand! Less people have a problem with all the safety equipment needed in a boat, because many people don't know how to swim (yes even in this day and age). I always wear my seat belt, because I have no desire to go through the windshield! But I always carry a knife and or seat belt cutter in my cars should I need to get out and the seat belt is stuck. Just like car insurance, even though by New Hampshire law your not required to have it to drive your car. I still have it just in case!
