No danger = No fun... No danger = No freedom. IMO.
I'll take my chances and the responsibility if I get hurt. (if I fall out of the chair or something). I grew up crawling all around the car or sitting on the center armrest in the front seat with the steel dashboard right in front of me.
I am for liberty, for allowing people to do stupid stuff... dangerous stuff. Life was much better back when you could order a Black Caiman from Thompson Wild Animal Farm! When I was a kid I got knots on my head you could hang a hat on... but I wouldn't change a thing and if I bike.. I do not wear a helmet. I do wear a seatbely but it is because I choose to, not because I have to.
I bet there is at least one other person here who remembers the advertisement in comic books for the BB Machine Gun. They pictured it mounted on bicycle handlebars.. THAT'S what I'm talkin' 'bout!!
Legalize everything! No one should have to get a license from the government to do anything. Anyone should be able to be an attorney if they want to, if they learn, get hired by a client... who cares? Buyer beware. Do what you want as long as it does not infringe on my freedom but take responsibility if you make a bad choice.
Why do you have to get a marriage license? Why does a doctor need a license? A bad doctor wont last long.
We have allowed ourselves to become wards of the state by default. The ball started downhill and no one stopped it, now it consumes everything. They have not run out of things to regulate but the list is getting shorter every day.
I am a bit old fashioned... I don't poke them in the eye but I pretty much do what I want. If I get in trouble, well... it's my trouble.
I saw a sign on a barbershop door yesterday. It said "muddy boots and firearms welcome". Make's sense to me.
 
Don't get me started.
 
BTW, later in life I developed upper thoracic spine pain. I went to the doctor today. We gave up on the shots years ago. Steroids have a FAST drop off and if you have ANY little bit of eczema, that drop off will make it bloom for about three weeks. I never had a problem with it until I took those shots, then it was like having roaming poison ivy for three weeks. Horrible. That's why they usually give steroids in countdown packs. Medications work best for me. I think I developed problems by spending too much time looking at a computer monitor (through bifocals), that and getting rear ended by a local transport van... it didn't hurt at the time so I don't really know. I suspect craning my neck looking at the computer for hours and hours. Oh well, like I said. I take the chance, I deal with the consequence... even if I didn't know. It's just life and we just live it. Have fun!

Before reading the thread I thought it would be regarding Winter weather. I'd never seen so much paranoia over snow storms.  People have endured these things before.  People don't get sick in frigid weather.
 
I stopped buying anything antibacterial because I grew up in a generation when this didn't exist and there is potential for ab stuff to me more harmful to you.
 
When I was a kid I never met another kid allergic to peanuts.
 
I've talked to teachers who improved their health by limiting the amount of hand sanitizer used in the class. This whole germaphobia culture is not getting any healthier.
 

About allergies and such:
It sounds like a  (one) very logical explanation to me that various kinds of allergies have increased also because of vaccinations. We're vaccinated against everything, so our immune defense system has to start looking for other enemies, because it hasn't been programmed to be idle. I'm for vaccinations, anyway.
 
My mother, a kindergarten teacher, used to say that a child has the right to break his bones and eat dirt and bugs.
That's the natural way of developing  normal instincts  of self protection and immunological strength.
Of course, it's easy to say in a country where there are practically no life threatening kind of bugs, no cholera etc. :o) and broken bones are taken care of .
