The reason a person has a roll cage on the street,
is that you never know when some street turkey in a 20 year old Buick is going to blast you at an intersection...............but I don't object that
others disagree. Hondas are built to drive, they are not built to crash.

The reason a person wears a helmet on a motorcycle,
is that you never know when you are coming off it.....................
but I don't object that others disagree.

The reason a person wears a life jacket on a racing catamaran
is that when you are going full boar and a hull digs in, and that
baby flips end over end, most people don't swim too good when
they get knocked out, but I don't object that others disagree.

Folks, We live in a world where it is survival of the smartest, not survival of the fittest, and if you have the means to stay alive, it makes sense to do so.
