McGill University Homosexual Activists Shut Down Blood Clinic

Protesters told to “lie about your sexual history”

MONTREAL, February 1, 2006 (LifeSiteNews.com) - A group of homosexual activists have shut down a Montreal blood donor clinic that was screening out sexually active “gay” men. 10 to15 men showed up at the McGill University blood drive Wednesday, dressed in women’s clothes and waving sex toys.

Workers with the Quebec blood agency found an anonymous note posted in men's bathrooms encouraging homosexual donors to lie on their blood donor questionnaire.

The note urged the men to "act faggy" and "lie about your sexual history."

A homosexual activist group called Queer McGill condemned the agency’s lifetime ban on sexually active homosexuals as discriminatory. Medical realities, however, give little room for pandering to political correctness and the agency, not willing to take chances, shut down the clinic. The agency’s policy is to refuse men who have had sex with another man since 1977.

Andre Roch, a spokesperson with the agency said, “When we collect blood, we collect blood for patients. And what we must do is ensure safety is paramount.”

In 1998, the federal and provincial governments paid out $1.1 billion in compensation to Canadians who had been infected with hepatitis C from transfusions of tainted blood through the 1980’s. This followed a previous payout by the federal government in 1989, of $150 million for 1,250 Canadians infected with HIV.

Probably because it's not breaking news.

Sorry, "activists", that's almost a worldwide policy. If you've ever had sex with another man, you don't give blood. It's not anti-gay, it's anti-sex with another man. Period. The Canadian Red Cross once got into a lot of trouble for failing to have effective screening procedures which ended up with thousands of people with HepB and AIDS. So shut up, okay?

As I see it, being unwilling to take a chance is a very good reason for shutting the clinic down. If the homosexuals mentioned in the article want to give blood perhaps they should start their own blood bank.

"encouraging homosexual donors to lie on their blood donor questionnaire."



Should there not be a death penalty for perjury? In this case it also constitutes premeditated, ATTEMPTED MURDER.

Truthful lips endure forever, but a lying tongue lasts only a moment.
-- Proverbs 12:19

No one who practices deceit will dwell in my house;
no one who speaks falsely will stand in my presence.
-- Psalm 101:7



(Calpernia, perhaps you can address post #8)

Sigh, now I know why I limited myself to only watching Canadian Curling. Now I gotta see the other side. Ah well, take the good with the bad.

Actually -nothing that homosexual activists advocate for or come up with is breaking news -the liberal agenda is as old as humanity -always the same disorders with new window dressings. Regardless -it looks like this 'news' story got put back into a news category...

Yes. It came from prisons in Arkansas, full of Hep C, etc.

No, FRiend.

You do not have to 'take' the bad.

Do not accept the bad.

:-D

They need to call this what it is, which is bioterrorism.

Thanks. C.S. Lewis has some great one-liners, indeed. We just finished going through Mere Christianity again. Everytime I go through it I get something new out of it - I recommend it to everyone.

That is (or was) a good question. It doesn't fit either category... maybe they have a drop-down menu from which to put articles and selected the wrong category. I'm just guessing... But I'm glad to see it back in news.

"lie about your sexual history."

Its good to see that liberal groups are honest about instructing their members to LIE!!

Also, if I am not mistaken, people with tattoos are also not allowed to give blood. Ooohhhhhh, the descrimination!!
