Gee, maybe I should raise a ruckus too. I can't give blood anymore because I was stationed in Europe and got back on 18 July 1980 (the cutoff is the endo of June 1980) and there is a chance I was exposed to mad cow disease. The way I see it, the chances of my having mad cow disease are a lot less than a "Gay" person having AIDS. These people won't be happy until they get to kill a lot more innocents and the Leftists brainwashing campaign seems to be affecting a lot of young idiots. God help us all.

Yup. I'm banned for life from donating and my kids are each banned for 30 years. They have to protect the blood supply no matter what. It would sure suck to have some kid with hepatitis contract AIDS (or Mad Cow) because people are afraid of offending A Group.

Hey! My husband was stationed in Germany around 1983 or 1984 and he was recently told that he is permanently barred from giving blood because of the possibility of mad cow disease. Maybe you and him ought to get together and protest!

Silly, isn't it? Protecting those who need blood is somehow less important than the homosexual agenda! Sick!!!

Same here. I have donated over a gallon in my lifetime, but four years ago was informed that since I lived in Western europe 1982 - 1986, no more donations from me.

Same with my oldest son who was born in Germany and left before he was eating solid food. He cannot donate.
