I always wear a helmet. And I always wear a seatbelt. And I believe that you're an idiot if you don't. But I also firmly believe that neither you nor I have the right to impose those restrictions on anyone else. It's not my place to tell you what you have to do for your own good.

My philosophy on individual liberty: I have the right to do anything I want, as long as it doesn't infringe anyone else's right to do the same. Any law beyond that is tyrrany.
