Actually there is quite a bit of ground between the two extreme ends of the issue. While there certainly are exceptions, most do not rabidly promote helmets, and even less try to discourage or obstruct anyone from wearing one. Plus, many do wear a helmet sometimes but not all the time. So much for your "Pro/Anti", "Helmet or Not" stance.

The biggest issue isn’t that some don’t care to wear a helmet, it’s that too many put way too much faith in them. It appears that these threads and the posters you erroneously call “anti helmet” have helped in that regard by giving people some information beyond the common misconceptions. Pedal On!
