It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Yeah I get what you're saying but then again; cigarettes, alchohol, fast food, sedentary lifestyle.. This same argument applies to so many more aspects of life aswell. We got to draw the line somewhere. I don't want to live in a world where hospital denies treatment because you "caused it yourself"
Then that's your argument for mandatory helmet laws right there. Which I don't actually object to. I ride a motorcycle, and most states have helmet laws. I don't wear just a helmet though; I ride with full leathers every time because I'm aware that riding a motorcycle potentially fatal. I think that you can make a reasonable distinction between, "riding without leathers could cost you a limb" versus "riding without a helmet could cost you your higher brain function", and say that a helmet law is reasonable, while requiring leathers is not. I think you could quite reasonably require that a helmet be worn by all people riding bicycles--electric or not--on public roads.
I don't understand how that's an argument for mandatory helmet laws. Obesity causes way more healthcare costs than head injuries. Should people be mandated to stay lean aswell then or else we wont treat their heart attack before making sure they can afford the treatment?
