The brakeless crowd just likes to use this as an excuse to justify their brakelessness. You will never just go flying over the bars superman-style by using your front brakes...in a severe emergency stop you may endo and perhaps fall forward as you make a sudden stop, but thats still better than plowing into a bus at 22 mph.
