Celibate for a year? 
Hep A, B, C, Syphilis, HPV, Gonorrhea, Chlamydia....
They really are committed to destroying the healthcare system in America, aren’t they?
It’s very clear that the sodomites and their allies in the executive branch wish to extend the spread of AIDS into hetero culture.
FYI some blood banks and hospitals will let you donate your blood with your name on the bottle so if you need it back then you get your own and not some Aids-infected druggie’s blood
(it works better anyway ... no risk of mis-matches or other problems, this is actually a recommended procedure and not just an aids-reaction)
ask your local blood bank and hospital or perhaps your MD will know
My dog is a blood donor and probably has to go through more screening than the fags will. We are so screwed.
The mind-numbing experiments in social justice and politically correct magical thinking continue. If we all just BELIEVE gays should be able to donate tainted blood to the rest of us, wonderful miracles will happen! If we all just BELIEVE muzzies are really good people...if we just BELIEVE in Hope and Change...if we just BELIEVE. Simple groupthink will heal all things. Bow down. Brain out the window. Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated. The Oborgs have spoken. The muzzie cube rules all.
I’ve just ended my blood donating as of now.
“But activists questioned whether requiring a year of celibacy from gay men...”
That’s funny. A government that supports hedonism wants celibacy. And that same lying government wants people not to lie about their supposed celibacy. This is stupid on all levels.
And yet I, a former routine O-neg donor, am permanently banned because I served on active duty in the Republic of Turkey.
Just in case I might have mad cow disease....
Let’s not forget the AIDS tainted blood from the Arkansas Prison System under the governorship of Bill Clinton. Lots of innocent people died from that.
Celibate for a year?
Statistically, my blood is safer than theirs, yet I can’t donate. I was stationed in Europe until Jul of 1980. because of mad cow disease, anyone not back in the States by 31 June 1980 cannot donate blood. I missed the cutoff by 2 weeks, over 34 years ago, yet my blood is unsafe....
Are there any private blood sources that are not buying street blood from the homeless?
There is going to be a ONE YEAR comment period. Time for real science and real conservatives to speak up.
This is about what these 1.5% do not what they are as a status.
Homosexuals are using this blood issue to attempt to redefine science of behavior (fetish sex) as a status.
I just went to Africa.Since I've been home the blood donor center of the hospital where I regularly give blood told me I can't give until 1 year after having left Africa (mainly because of malaria).It's easy to see the wisdom in such a policy but it now looks like I'll be able to announce "yah,I've been taking it up the bum for years" and I'll have no problem. (and BTW...I haven't,despite my screen name).
Un bleeping believable!
Did the FDA try to ask Arthur Ashe, Elizabeth Glaser (and her children) and the large number of hemophiliacs who died if “science has shown us that our current policy is not justified.” Do you think that the odds of a GAY man not having GAY sex with another GAY man or men for a year is better than 1 in 10,000?
I read science projects 50% of homosexuals will be HIV+ by age 50. I don’t think AIDS is a concern anymore, because of all the HIV medications, but living with HIV is horrible. Along with all the other problems, apparently it rots their brains.
Yeah, I think homosexuals want to infect heterosexuals with HIV.
