Is it possible to give your own blood for future use? Can it be frozen? Is there an expiration date?
The blood supply is now contaminated.
From the article...
“...The Williams Institute at the University of California, Los Angeles, has calculated that the change could add about 317,000 pints of blood to the nation’s supply annually, an increase of 2 percent to 4 percent.
About 8.5 percent of American men — or about 10 million people — report having had sex at least once with a man since turning 18, according to the Institute....”
That would be the “Williams Institute on Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity.”
Color me skeptical....
OMG! THIS is INSANITY, criminal negligence and not based on sound medical OR scientific practices and is akin to murder in the name of political correctness.
What happened to FIRST DO NO HARM??!!
AND, get this, they DO NOT test the blood for disease.
The number of deaths caused by political correctness is about to increase.
INSANITY...

This proves that the department of motor vehicles does not do medicine good!

Just plain WRONG.
Idiots.
The Kenyan-in-Thief strikes again!
I didn’t know my civil rights were being violated. I am not gay but still can not give blood for other reasons. Who do I sue?
political position usurping hard real world science.
Obama deathcare at work. More dead people less government burden.
YAY receiving AIDS blood WOW what a treat..hey you know what’s better, getting hit by a mack truck
A male homosexual will have many, many more partners in his lifetime. Sometimes thousands. And the more partners a person has the greater the risk of getting STDs and even HIV.
So the ban on those who spent too much time in Europe in the 80s will also be lifted? No? Why not?
The culture of sodomites is killing this country.
If we’re that desperate for a 4% increase in our blood supply, surely a public campaign could generate the increase.
The restriction on giving blood was one big glaring bit of evidence that something is wrong with homosexuality. It’s been target #1 since rational people began pointing out that piece of evidence.
Now the homosexuals have access to your blood supply. That enables them to accomplish another important task...spread AIDS more broadly than the homosexual community. Such a huge share of AIDS belongs to them, so dispersing it among others is another part of their “hide reality” campaign.
This is a two-fer for them. Wonder if I have a right to demand details of any blood received by me or my family?
Well, I guess I am changing to “do not resuscitate”
