Do I wear my seatbelt? Most of the time. Do I think not doing so is grounds for committing a crime? Abso-fucking-lutely not. If someone doesn't want to wear it, that's fine. I have every problem in the world with the state sticking a gun in your face to make you wear it.
I mean like, I can't think of analogy for wearing a seatbelt because that is the baseline analogy. "Well bro, would you skydive without a backup chute? No, cause that's like your seatbelt for skydiving." "Would you kayak on the open ocean without a life jacket? No, of course not, cause what if a totally unpredictable set of circumstances leads to a situation with you out of the boat in a current." Of course, the big difference in this analogy is that people not wearing seatbelts results in them getting killed at higher rates in crashes, which means that someone who did have complete control of his property rights, all of the sudden didn't, cause billy bob jo didn't protect his property rights. fuckin buzz words.
