So in other words the President could give blood
Nope.
Why don’t they set up a homosexual blood bank, for homosexual donors and homosexual recipients only?
Set it up in The Castro and other corresponding homosexual communities. Then distribute the blood to homosexuals who are in need of blood donations. Problem solved.
Or do we have to get into the whole business of how homosexuals feeling are hurt, self-esteem disturbed and all that, by the blood ban being in place?
Homosexual Agenda vs. Nanny State PING!
Odd, and queer, and quite peculiar.
Someone thinks HIV should be more widespread.
Translation: Store up your own blood if you know a surgery or procedure is coming and try to get relatives and friends to donate in an emergency.
As I have posted multiple times in threads on this subject, including two weeks ago, these sorry bass-turds are directly responsible for the deaths of innocent people in the 80s. One of these innocents was a childhood friend with hemophilia who had to use clotting factors derived from donated blood. He was robbed of life by these perverse butt-humpers. I have nothing but disgust for them. They deserve nothing and we deserve to have a clean blood supply.
Im permanently banned from donation due to serving in the US military in West Germany with potential exposure to CJV. The poofter crowd deserves nothing less.
Critics of the ban, which was enacted during the national AIDS epidemic in 1983 and was last updated in 1992, say it ignores mounds of scientific evidence concluding that blood donations pose no risk than the greater public if properly screened.Arthur Ashe was unavailable for comment.
This is patently unfair to former Ebola patients, both men and woman.
This is utterly insane. I’ve posted here before, but in a nutshell: Gay and Bi men under the age of 25 account for almost 70% of new HIV infections and a similar amount of new syphilis infections.
Testing of donated blood is reliable, but it is not foolproof. It is sheer madness to allow a high-risk group like that into the blood supply. The proposed “no sex for a year” protocols are stupid. Are we seriously supposed to believe someone is going to stop having sex for a year to donate a pint of blood?
Stupid, stupid, stupid idea in the works here.
The reason there was a ban placed in the first place was because AIDS-infected blood nearly destroyed the entire hemophiliac community.
HELL NO.
This is very dangerous and will lead to people fighting against getting blood transfusuion. Everything that can be done to keep this blood safe must be done and not having homosexuals donate is way up on the list.
My biggest question is why. Is there such a shortage of blood that we need to take such a risk? Is “removing a stigma” from a very small minority of the population worth the risk? I think obviously not but how in the world do they justify this? What is the rationale? On a side note, why doesn’t anyone point out the recent issues with self reporting and ebola as a cautionary tale.
Obama has only two years left in office and his Fundamental Transition is a long way from completion.
They need to do more to speed up the process of eliminating Bitter Clingers and older generations who remember what it was like to live without the suffocating tyranny of Bat-Crap crazy liberals and communist dictators running the government.
Others in my exact same situation do lie because they believe so vehemently that they have the right forget the right, the ability to keep the blood supply and the bone marrow supply safe, he said. We have the ability to help save lives.
BS! Narcissistic a holes poorly justifying their narcissism knowing they will never get called on it due to political correctness. It is always all about them and gay men are soooo preoccupied by the state of our blood reserves and just want to help others. /s
Another Bolshie plot to reduce the carbon footprint of the human race.
Homosexual marriage is equal to heterosexual marriage
Having AIDS is equal to not having AIDS
A contaminated blood supply is equal to a uncontaminated blood supply
I guess they’re just not getting enough new AIDS cases. This should fix that.
Street person with AIDS needs money real bad. Has a blood type they’ll pay for. He has no character, simply answers the questions the way it will serve him best.
Good luck citizens...
