I was unaware of marauding hooligans forcing helmets off an individual's head. I certainly didn't encounter any marauding hooligans while riding in Seattle. I would think that "advocates" would want to warn visitors of the marauding hooligans forcing helmets off an individual's head.
Around here, the dollar value of a used helmet is zero - so folks leave it alone.
(But yes, it's my decision to wear a helmet.)
