I'm not sure why my link about gun violence statistics was removed after someone asked me to post statisitcs backing up my arguments.

Cause you started getting political. Now you're fringing on thread bashing. The theme of the thread is "Wear your seatbelt". Not "No one's gonna tell me what to do".

6) Off-Limit Discussions — There are a few topics for which we have zero tolerance policy based on past experience or simply the nature of the topic. They are: Politics (automotive-related regulations discussions are allowed), Religion, Pornography, Law Enforcement-Bashing, and Street Racing. Any posts of this nature will be removed without warning or notification at a moderator’s discretion.

You can jump up and down all day about seatbelts, but the bottom line is they save more lives than not. It is the law. Most, if not all, insurance companies won't pay if seat belts were not utilized. Life insurance policies won't pay if you weren't wearing a seatbelt. Man, no Man, why or why nots; it's the law (except apparantly in New Hampshire, not sure and don't care to look it up), and regardless of comments or sentiments I would hate to read that something bad happened to you as a result of not wearing one.
