Better analogy is with motorcycles. If your state requires motorcyclists to wear a helmet, they
should require it of bicyclists operating on roads as well. Automobile drivers have the benefit of
all that car around them. Neither type of "biker" does. No comparison. Don't personally think the
government has any business forcing either to wear a helmet (not a liberal), but if they do for one,
they should for both in the interest of consistency.
On the other hand, bike helmets are of little use in a collision with a car, anyway. Be better if
they want to mandate bike helmets to require motorcycle level helmet protection. Effective, but
non-cute, heavy, and expensive.

Same roads, same rules, same rights.
