Easy peasy! Allow fairies to give (sell?) blood but allow it to be used only for other fairies. This should do even more to spread the ultimate cure for faggitude. Don't articles like this have to include a paragraph emphsizing that AIDS is spread by toilet seats and dirty needles and "allegedly," sexual contact?

"What ever happend to accepting what's best for others?




These people have no morals, ethics, character, or integrity. By their very lifestyles and the causes they pursue around that lifestyle, they are the most selfish lot ever to exist in this country! It's not about anyone else, least of all the country and the common good!! It's about them, and their perversion, nothing more nothing less. If they are allowed, they will distroy the country, the society we live in. They want to!

Since October 2001 no one who has spent 6 months or more in Europe since January 1, 1980, can give blood, because of the fear of mad cow disease. I don't know if they have a single case of anyone in the U.S. contracting mad cow disease from a blood transfusion from someone who had spent time in Europe...or of anyone coming down with mad cow disease whose only risk factor was having spent time in Europe in the 1980s. It would be much safer to allow people from this category to donate blood than to accept blood donations from male homosexuals.

The reality is that anybody engaging in anal sex should not be allowed to give blood... that's why so many women are being infected with Hiv, as well as gay men... it is a much riskier form of sex

PING! Quinn talked about this a week or so ago.

Did you know that we have a right to donate blood?

Liberalism is a mental illness.....

Medical personnel didn't start wearing gloves until the AIDS explosion
What a nonsense response.

"But wouldn't that mean that he and they were but the manifestation of evil?"


Yes. But we are less sensitive to evil in the world.

There is so much evil we are shutting down so we can somehow make sense of our daily lives.

The young man writing the posted article is in real pain.

He is trying to justify his existence by challenging our right to healthy lives.

He is influenced by his destructive life-style.

He wants to make everyone who does not share his demon; suffer for not wanting to share the illness of homosexuality.

I think we should have the right to know if the blood came from such a source, what happens to your body including what gets put into it should require a release form from you or someone with legal authority to make that decision before it happens. Its just my opinion.

Sure. Lets spend $50 billion a year screening Hepatitis and AIDS out of the blood supply for no reason. /sarcasm

I can't believe civil rights of homosexual men have ANYTHING to do with the right of a patient to expect HIV free blood. Anyone who argues this is arguing for murder.

Hey, it's only 3 people a year. It not like everyone will get sick and die. /gagging

Is this sick SOB serious? So what if only 3 people get sick and die from their sick perverted activities? If their perversion wasn't bad enough, this really shows how twisted they are.

Gloves have always been available for use, but it was mostly up to the individual if they wore them or not.

After the AIDS discovery, it became mandatory that gloves be worn when there is ANY contact or potential contact with any bodily fluid.

<< But wouldn't that mean that he and they were but the manifestation of evil?

</rhetorical questions> >>

You may have missed the << </rhetorical questions> >>

part of my ironic/sarcastic post.

Insofar as the rest of your post, to whit:

<< Yes. But we are less sensitive to evil in the world.

There is so much evil we are shutting down so we can somehow make sense of our daily lives.

The young man writing the posted article is in real pain.

He is trying to justify his existence by challenging our right to healthy lives.

He is influenced by his destructive life-style.

He wants to make everyone who does not share his demon; suffer for not wanting to share the illness of homosexuality. >>

Is concerned, though, I would say that -- except that I take evil very very very seriously indeed and am extremely sensitive to it -- you and I are reading from the same place on the same page of the same Book.

You suck it up. My point was that your rubber gloves comment was tangential to the issue. There is no "safe sex." You need a reality check.

What "increasing threat" of a blood shortage? I haven't heard about a pending blood shortage.

It always sounds like there's a blood shortage when my local blood bank calls me up to ask for a donation.
