that doesn't mean they have an obligation to sell Ramadan cards..

And I don't have an obligation to support them. The RC can do whatever they wish. I quit supporting RC when they continued to have blood drives in the Castro district of SF, knowing that over 50% of the blood was HIV positive. I donate blood to another organization, teach CPR for a different organization, and donate my dollars to another organization.

They test the blood.. and they ask if you're gay before you give (along with lots of other HIV risk factors).

Actually, on a related note.. I know a few guys (cousins) who don't donate blood anymore, not because of the organization's policies, but because of who the blood goes to. They're ER doctors who see unit after unit go to lowlife drugdealers, pimps, etc. Kindof a paradox, since they're doctors and they save these guys lives every day. Plus its sobering to think "Who will get my blood? Do they deserve it?"
