Talk:Motorcycle Helmet

I see no reason to merge Helmet Law Defense League into the motorcycle helmet page, although mention with the subject matter of motorcycle helmets is extremely appropriate. The HLDL is not about motorcycle helmets. It is about legal defense against mandatory helmet laws and mandatory motor vehicle safety equipment laws which target consumers and motorists rather than manufacturers.

HLDL is more about LEGAL DEFENSE against vague statutes, primarily when states enact mandatory helmet statutes. It would be more appropriately assigned to categories such as think tanks and volunteer organizations which conduct legal analysis and legal defense. HLDL is neither pro-helmet nor anti-helmet. It is opposed to forcing motorcyclists to wear helmets, and is opposed to arbitrary and ad hoc enforcement of vague laws which target motorcyclists.

If the reason given for wanting to merge is that there is not enough known about HLDL, please do some research about B.O.L.T., of which I am a state director. B.O.L.T. is an all-volunteer national motorcycle rights collective which has taken over the publication of all future analysis and research conducted by the Helmet Law Defense League, and receives no compensation. In addition, B.O.L.T. researches and publishes legal arguments in legal opposition to other actions which are anti-motorcyclist, and occasionally conducts other legal analysis of other enactments by the legislatures and Congress which are contrary to natural rights and common law.
