Fair enough!
To: Aussie Dasher
Patients in hospitals who need clean blood transfusions be damned,
they don't want to be treated differently just because treating them the same could cost lives!
And if anyone gets AIDS from a blood transfusion, they still want to be able to sue the hell out of the hospital, of course.

I see an opportunity...start an exclusive homo centric blood bank. No tests required.

How dare those doctors discriminate against the Human Immunodeficiency Virus? It's species-ist!

The only problem I see with this is that the WHO needs to make it a WORLDWIDE ban.
To: bigfootbob
I'm sure that bank's gonna get a LOT of takers......

The whole country is trying to kill itself with AIDS and yet they think that they have a problem because they don't have gay marriage yet. Yeah, sounds like they have their priorities straight down there.

Works for me!
When I had surgery last year, I gave my own blood in case it was needed during surgery.

It is a human right for gays to donate blood and STD's! The rest of the population be damned!

concur, but it would change the tone of the debate, would it not?
To: Aussie Dasher
That's SOP for the American Red Cross, at least as of when I last gave blood (December). If you have had sex with a man since 1977, and you are a man, they will not take your blood.

Ya know, if a gay man wants to donate to a blood bank, how about volunteering to work there, or how about donating money, or how about volunterring to drive people to the blood bank.
There's lots of ways to help out without actually giving blood. But I guess I miss the point.
To: bigfootbob
Limited opportunity, but an opportunity nonetheless. I like the way you think!
To: Aussie Dasher
They arent happy giving their Death serum Anally any more, Now they want to give it to us from their blood.
No Thank You, and Thank You President Reagan for bringing this to the forefront.
We all remember the criticism President Reagan got when he donated his own blood for his operation.
