People in cars have to wear seatbelts...........you should have to wear helmets.
But even with a helmet, motorcycles are very unsafe......if you crash, your body can go flying. How wreckless.
Regular, non-motor bikes are very beneficial and serve as healthy exercise....but still wreckless to ride them without a helmet.
Why don't you people wear helmets? Do you not mind if your head gets busted open?
Answer
You are right, motorcycles are unsafe. Some other things that are unsafe: sex, airplanes, elevators, earthquakes, sharks, boats, ocean, trains, wilderness, cars, dogs, bicycles, skateboards, drugs, running. Now if you check statistics you'll find motorcycling doesn't need you attention as much as many other things. Sex causes more injury and death that motorcycles ever could, perhaps you should spend your efforts to fix sex. What do you care if someone busts their head open, does it somehow effect your life OR does your life suck and you choose to harass people about wearing a helmet cause it makes you feel better. If you just want to help people then I'd suggest doing something about the terrible drivers that choose to crash into people with motorcycles, if they are hard at seeing then maybe they shouldn't drive, fix that if you want to make a difference. By the way, I wear a helmet and I know it's not up to me if other people do. Maybe make a deal with some non helmet wearers, You'll do what they tell you to do if they do what you want.

UGH! My dad doesn't get that dogs shouldn't have chicken bones!?
.
He just goes on and on about,
"When I was young, we ALWAYS fed dogs chicken bones and they lived to be one hundred and two! I just don't understand Americans! They think they have to provide health care for a DOG?!?"
Ugh, he is so annoying! I can't stand him! I wish I could report him for animal abuse! We have a dog and he can't afford a vet or anything. If it weren't for the fact that the owner we got it from gave her shots and got her fixed, we would probably be BYBs too!
What bones ARE appropriate to give a dog? Maybe I can convince him to give a different kind of bone instead.
Answer
Good luck! Parents can be really tough to deal with - especially when they're doing something unwise. Just because his dogs were lucky enough to survive eating chicken bones, doesn't mean your current dog will. My grandfather's collie survived eating lightbulbs, rat poison and a plaster wall. But that was LUCK. I worked as a vet tech and saw many dogs come in with disastrous and expensive problems from eating all kinds of things.
Maybe it would help to remind him that people used to drive without seatbelts and ride bicycles without helmets and do a lot of unsafe things. Sure, if he's LUCKY enough to never be in an accident he doesn't need one. But if he's the one who ends up dead or in a coma from a head injury, his family will miss him! If he absolutely insists on the chicken bone thing, boil the heck out of them first to soften them up - but I still wouldn't give them to any dog of mine.
Personally, I don't like any real bones for dogs. The big beef knuckle bones are safe, but if they're in the house, the grease will soil your carpet and furniture. They also attract nasty bacteria if you keep them more than a day without boiling off the meat. Nylabones and hard rubber Kong toys are the best. They're indestructible and very safe - as long as they are too big to swallow. I once saw a German Shepherd swallow a tennis ball - he had to be put to sleep because his owners couldn't afford the $600 surgery to remove it and the intestinal blockage it caused.
