Door Automatic Unlocking

[RhinoQuartz]

You assume right.
Mandatory- is what's wrong.
You actually need to tell me that you think it's okay for the government to say you legally have to wear your seatbelt in your own car that you own that you buy and pay for? Health insurance that you choose to have or not that you pay for for your medical care. Everything about your life is your own responsibility. We allowed this crap to pass back in the early 80s and everyone's accepted it. It's not really a very big leap to assume the government might later try to force you to eat healthier. They certainly try to encourage enough.
What you put into your body and how you take care of it should be your business whether you put on a seatbelt to further take care of your body should also be your business.
Don't think I'm arguing that people should not wear seat belts or that they're not safer. I'm simply saying it's not the government's place.

I think we're veering into politics at this point and away from automatic door lock/unlocking. I completely disagree with you and think the arguments you have presented are biased, ill informed, and completely hyperbolic and seemed to be based more upon your personal emotional preferences than any sort of validity rooted in fact.

However, I know that it's about to get heated, so I'll just leave the rest of this particular conversation for either PMs or to be consigned to history.

I don't know... Is the discussion of personal rights and freedoms politics?

Not going to get heated at all. You say they seem to be based more on personal emotional preferences... it should seem that way because they absolutely are.
They are also completely biased as to my own personal opinions and preferences and I never represented them as anything but that.
Of course you are completely at liberty to disagree and the best thing to do is to state to such like you did.
What would be wrong and ridiculous would be try to argue with me or change my opinion as also many in society do today. It's a personal preference and opinion. It doesn't have to be based on anything other than one's own wishes, desires or experiences.
Now if I were trying to argue that people shouldn't wear seat belts for some sort of reasons that would be different. There are plenty of facts to support the argument the other way and only a small little couple of Statistics to support an anti seat belt stance. However that's not what I'm harping about.
I'm speaking about the principle of it and the fact that I feel it is principally wrong for a government to mandate the wearing of seatbelts and many other things.
Since I simply feel it is wrong and disagree with forcing requirements, there are no facts or statistics to try to turn it into an argument or a debate.
I like blue cars. You like red cars. But I really shouldn't include that last little bit because then all too often people's next response is that that's an entirely different situation or one of their favorites... Apples to oranges.
