Re: Seatbelts
I don't want to sound heartless, I think saving lives is a noble and worthwhile goal, but when a person isn't willing to do something simple to protect themselves, then let them get hurt.
Damn right... I just can't feel sorry for daredevils or bullfighters when they get hurt.
Yeah, ya know, maybe you got hurt because you faced off with a 2,000 pound beast of pure instinct. Maybe... I don't know...
