This bloke:

An ironic death that one.
He didn't want to wear a helmet because he was one.
Edit: Here's a quote to be taken out of context
"ABATE says it supports 'helmet freedom' in which it encourages the voluntary use of them but opposes their legal necessity."

I'm thinking that, should he not have been hurt, he could have convinced someone who would ware a helmet not too, and that person died.....
... then i wouldn't say the OP was resonsible entirely, but he would have caused a preventable death.
Wait, does that make sense? I mean, these guys who say riding a fucking motorbike at 90mph without a helmet are fucking retarded, they're giving out bad safety/health/whatever advice and people are dying directly because of it.

Probably got tired of everything being well organised and clean.

I couldn't stand that.
Imagine having a perfectly run country? Christ, what would you complain about, eh?

probably, right.
because although it's superficially lovely, Switzerland is a fucking odd place to live. Like, since it's more or less impossible to get citizenship it's really hard to buy property. Oh, and you can work there all your life and be deported on zero notice (no citizenship again) and they have really odd and strict laws about noise, litter etc which again may seem superficially good but are actually a bitch to live with ... and also the trains might run like clockwork but they never show all their destanations, which is really fucking frustrating.
Oh, and it's got as a bad a rate of firearms related deaths per capita as some of the more "robust" areas of the US. Minor point.

I'm going to refute that
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_firearm-related_death_rateI know it's wikipedia, but the numbers there show that the death rate is nearly half that of the US, and most of it is suicides, not homicides.

statistically miles out of date. I believe it's much higher these days but of course I can't prove it
But, yeah, I'm probably slightly exaggerating. It's still brutally high for a developed mainland european country with "supposedly" civilised society. Like, it's 15 times higher than England.
Also, I'm not entirely sure about this (I'll grant you it does sound very odd) but a close friend who has lived in Geneva for about 15 years told me that it's classified as suicide if it's your own gun, hence the very odd stats. I'll admit that sounds like bollocks, but remember the Swiss are VERY odd.

Look badger, you can't be right about everything all the time
why don't you be the bigger man and just admit you're wrong about this.

I said I was exaggerating. Consider that one up for team Al.
Although, I'm genuinely interested if there is any truth in my edit.

Are you saying that shooting someone else with your own gun counts as suicide?
Or are you saying it's ONLY suicide if it's your own gun?

no, he said it was to do with whether or not you were shot with your own gun.
Like I said, sounds like bollocks but you can never tell with the Swiss

I found out the other week
that my cousin used to hang about with a founder member of Swiss industrialist rockers the Young Gods. I was quite impressed by this.
I knew there were some strange things about the place, but hadn't realised the level of restrictions there. So you may have a point.

You cant' flush your toilet after a certain time of night in some apartment blocks.
But on the plus side, nobody has any problems with changing large bank notes if that's all you have.
