Makes a ton of sense for kids, but simultaneously I hate the fact that
government once again intrudes in our private lives and tells us what
we can and cannot do

Welcome to the nanny state. It's only going to get worse for the next
few months anyway. Common sense says that children under 18 should
wear helmets everytime they leave the house.

It's like the newest controversy over texting. I've heard reports that
it's 10X more dangerous than driving with a BAC of .25 ! If that is so
why don't they move resourses from DUI to text patrols? As with the
helmets it's just some special interest group that wants control over
someone to make themselves feel needed.

Common sense says they shouldn't be allowed to leave the house.
Irritating little buggers.

Geez, Tranny Boob, you gotta stop drinking your breakfast. Resourses,
eh? You're already slurring your words. I'm not surprised you want
DUI enforcement to be lessened, makes it easier for you to get home.

As with the
helmets it's just some special interest group that wants control over
someone to make themselves feel needed.


Yeah, Brain Fried Bob. People who don't want drunks like you driving
are a special interest group.
Hey, since you drive at .25, how about letting people know which is
more dangerous? Texting or driving drunk?

Hey, the Savior of RSA mentions kids without accusing me of molesting
them!!!
The New RSA. How charming.

I bought my kids helmets after one of them slid off the edge of a
trail and down through a grove of trees on an icy day at Big Bear.
The day after we got them, the other son hit his head on a lift chair
frame, and the only injury was a scratch on the helmet.

But no one told me I HAD to do it.

I think snowboarders should be required to have someone walk 50 feet
ahead of them waving a red flag to warn other snowsporters.

We did the same, bought helmets for everyone in the family. My wife
and I had no problems with ours, got used to them very quickly.
Biggest issue is the space that they take up in the Thule. My youngest
daughter was ok with hers, she wore it as instructed. The oldest
daughter was another story, she hated it.....what can you do

I LOVE IT!!!!! Dick Gozinya, Tranny Boob Thompson, and Dickless Henry
discussing child safety.
The same freaks who make sick jokes about molesting children.
Irony meter buys a helmet.
BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHA

Then you called NAMBALA and offered them up for sale, right? A sick
freak who made countless jokes about child rapists and falsely accused
me of molesting children discussing protecting children?
There is vile. There is disgusting. Then there is RSA, a whole new
definition of sick.

My wife
and I had no problems with ours, got used to them very quickly.


Does your wife know about your behavior here? Does she call herself
Dick Gozinme?
BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HA

Averagely speaking, what is the ratio of skiers to boarders on a hill
at any given time? I was thinking it is somewhere around 70% skiers,
30 boarders. The danger for our sport might be the adoption of
boarding by the younger crowd which I have seen at 60-40 or 50-50 on
some runs/days
