So, in effect, you made up your own country, and then passed a helmet law. That's not very Libertarian of you. Does Ron Paul know about this?

What's the name of this free country, whose laws you speak of?

Natural selection, natural selection...now that you mention it, it does ring a bell, but I'm not sure which version you're referring to.

The one that I learned, states that certain biological traits lead to more successful reproductive rates that others. Since there is no collaborative data to suggest that people who die as a result of motorcycle crashes where helmets were not worn, had trouble reproducing before the crash, you must be thinking of some other version of natural selection.

Now, if you could identify a "death by motorcycle crash without a helmet" gene, you might be on to something.

Till then, not so much.
