Another PSA: Helmet Wear

Posted by GruntDoc on 19th August 2004

In my series of Public Service Announcements, this is one that I feel strongly about: if you’re going to try assisted suicide motorcycle riding, please Wear A Helmet.

A visual reminder:
scarred but alive
This rider went home with scrapes and bruises, but he went home. And he didn’t have a head injury.

I cannot tell you how many tearful families have told me “…he has a helmet at home”. So, put it on.

CNN.com - Report: Jackson not ‘manhandled’ in custody - Aug 19, 2004

The article mentions an investigation into allegations made by permanent child Michael Jackson that he was “manhandled” by the cops when originally arrested. I called this BS when he did it.

His foray into victimhood didn’t turn out like he wanted.
