So in this case the “soldier” to be sacrificed will be, let’s say, an 8 year old injured in a car crash?
Let’s get back to basics, please. No one is going to deny blood as a protest.
To quote a Soldier that I highly respect that wrote in an email over Christmas while in Iraq, “There is no better gift one can give than the gift of freedom”.
I would rescend every drop of blood I have ever donated if it meant that my country were forever free.
I am sorry you do not value freedom as much as I do.
One other VERY important point to make that everyone is missing. Go back to the book, “Who Really Cares?”. This Syracuse professor (contrary to his beliefs) found that it is the conservatives that donate the blood.
Why do WE conservatives have to do most of the charity in this country. If we sit on the sidelines just once, it will force those bleeding heart liberals who ACT like they care so much for their fellow human beings to finally get off their lousy read ends and FINALLY do something themselves... like donate some blood!
