See how ridiculous those arguments are? The same goes for your gun control and alcohol arguments. They have nothing to do with seat belts.
By your logic we indeed should outlaw porches, satellites, and landscaping equipment. So if the arguments are ridiculous, you need to ask yourself why you are using that exact logic to defend taking away some personal liberties but not others. It's gonna be real interesting to see how you react when liberties you value start getting taken away.

And again, it's not about seat belts. Or alcohol. Or guns. It's about personal freedoms.
