So ABATE held a rally in Annapolis to get the helmet law repealed again as well as rally support for the aging tire bill. The tire bill would require a manufacturer or distrubutor to affix a label on the tire with the tires date of manufacture as well as a bit about how age affects a tire. Then the merchant who sells you the tire must have you sign a disclosure as to the age of the tire and they must keep a copy for three years.
So, the gubermint can't tell me to wear a helmet for my safety but it can tell businesses to put more labels on stuff and have me sign more stuff and have the cost of tires go up to pay for all these labels and disclosures when I can look on the tire and see the date of manufacture myself, for my safety.
