I agree with Bob, that it likely helmets would protect on some level.
Where I disagree is the controlling attitude similar to rapist is with
sex. Bob (nor other proponents care about the net effect of any saving
of money, nor lives. All they care about is forcing their will upon
others. This is evidenced by the fact they do NOT agree with helmets
in cars which follows their theory perfectly (saves time and money) and
also by the fact they have the inability to be tolerant and accept
other people's choices. Finally the inability to admit they are wrong.
It's not about money or lives-it's about ego.

But there is no credible evidence to support the idea that helmets
prevent serious head and brain injuries.Nonsense. There's all sorts of credible evidence. All you have to do

Quoted message said:spend some time looking for it.
Quoted message said:These types of injuries are
in any case usually caused by types of forces that helmets cannot
mitigate, according to current thinking."Current thinking"? Currnet thinking by whom? You?
