It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Yeah I get what you're saying but then again; cigarettes, alchohol, fast food, sedentary lifestyle.. This same argument applies to so many more aspects of life aswell. We got to draw the line somewhere. I don't want to live in a world where hospital denies treatment because you "caused it yourself"
Then that's your argument for mandatory helmet laws right there. Which I don't actually object to. I ride a motorcycle, and most states have helmet laws. I don't wear just a helmet though; I ride with full leathers every time because I'm aware that riding a motorcycle potentially fatal. I think that you can make a reasonable distinction between, "riding without leathers could cost you a limb" versus "riding without a helmet could cost you your higher brain function", and say that a helmet law is reasonable, while requiring leathers is not. I think you could quite reasonably require that a helmet be worn by all people riding bicycles--electric or not--on public roads.
