Helmet, would you or would you not?
In my state, Maryland, there is a helmet law, so naturally, I wear one.
When I go to other bordering states that do not have a helmet law, I still wear mine.
Would you?
Even though I wear my helmet wherever I ride, and feel that people who do not wear helmets should wear them, I would not assume to impose my values of safety and common sense upon them.
"You do you and I'll do me."

I wear mine and Illinois has no helmet law. Just makes sense to me but I don't care what others do.

I always wear a helmet, no exceptions. I feel that everyone else should as well. It's just plain stupid not to. That being said, it's your own damn choice if you want to wear it or not, and I'm not gonna force you.
I know more than one guy who has suffered a severe concussion on their bike and would be dead if it weren't for helmets.

I'm sorry Glidedsternfan, and I know you are new and all but... a little research with the search function would have brought you more information on other peoples opinions about EVERY single helmet issue there is in the whole universe. Including a STUNNING amount of discourse on this particular one. For all ya'll people that claim to not care what other people do and would not assume to impose their values on anyone else, why do you feel the need to tell them you think they are wrong, or even 'just plain stupid' as Scuba10jdl so politely put it? I know I am pissing into the wind here once again, but seriously, havent we had enough helmet discussions? Isin't there enough helmet threads in the archives to keep you guys who want to know other peoples opinions on all things helmet related happy for many, many hours without starting another one?
