Gay Rights And Blood Donation

[brianh406]

My "friend" and I have donated blood many times. The bag of blood stamped "straight blood" isn't straight at all!!!! Welcome to our agenda! Muahahahaha

[superyoshi1993]

what's the difference its just blood. god i swear people are dumbshits

[ultinatetruustar]

Hell no they shouldn't be able to donate blood.

[poolerboy0077]

@ultinatetruustar Why's that?

They want to make it "12 months like the other similar types of deferrals" instead of lifetime? That's fine, but what about discrimination? I don't see heterosexuals who have had intercourse with 5 different people in the last 12 months being ineligible... Unless I understand her statement wrongly, that's still discrimination.

[patrickjaden]

Can gay men get some sort of unrecognizable form of AIDS that can't be seen?? -_-

[vidfan30]

human blood is blood, its not like homosexuality is something that is transimitted, or is gonna turn someone gay by haveing the blood of a gay man or woman in your body, what the fuck is wrong with societies way of thinking?, let the helpful help, how stupid are these people being byb now denying us the right to help by donateing blood to help those who need it? i thought we were supposed to evelove and grow as a society not stick to the same shit as before, wheres the fucken progress?

[englandhey]

i was turn down today at my school for want to give blood becaz i have had sex with a man befor its not right for gay or bi people like me to be turn down like that becaz someone out there is dieing and needs blood want are they going to do if they sat turning down all man and only woman lat not right and its needs to stop

[sdry]

knowing that homos had grid first, known as aids today, so I wont want any of their blood. Even if blood could be checked, things like these are important so they know they are not accepted by normal majority of society. Just gross!

[idaman12345]

@sdry you do realize where the origins of aids came right?

and ill give you a hint its not from gays

[AceofDimonds0]

so the only reason to have sex is to make a baby? not romance? not love? not pleasure?

[dacjan321]

i agree with

xii2quic, i would have blood from a gay man or a lesbian woman any day than a whore.

XxkatiekurxX your a dumbass, being gay is a choice of life, it is the same as different tuypes of sex, being gay is just a different type of sex. (i know there is also a relationship but im just trying to prove a point)

[XxkatiekurxX]

GAYS ARE SICK!!! THEY SUCK

i mean WHO WANTS GAY BLOOD GIVIN TO THEM!?

[AceofDimonds0]

blood is blood; and if your dieing i really dont think you would mind if it saved your life.

if the people giving the blood have some STD or AID's then ya they should not give blood.

the thing you have to understand is we may look or act diffrently but when it all comes right down to it, we all bleed the same.

[fauxindigo]

you should be so lucky XxkatiekurxX--maybe one day you'll need blood and o, b/c gay men can't give blood-there wont be any for you and you'll die. :( tear.

[xii2quic]

i heard a prostitute can donate blood if she gets off the game for 6 months but homosexual people can't. I'd rather a transfusion from a homosexual than some crack whore!!

[pencilsharpenner42]

I am gay.I have been tested.I also Have been celibate for 5 years.They are saying my blood isn't safe?

Yes.The laws should be changed.

[orafferty83]

If I got hurt and needed a blood transfusion I dont care who donated it .

[lucidatheist]

And your a dumb cunt.

[kalaway]

What was she referring to with "other types of deferrals"?

[isisbenny404]

Tattoos, needle sticks, unprotected sex, being out of the country, and the list goes on. Check your local guidelines by contacting a nearby hospital.

[InLulzWeTrust]

lol i don't have it :)

[madonnadncr2001tour]

They need to stop hating cause I'm blood donor and i told them all the people got my blood is acting like Madonna and Me. i have no promblems with gay people alot of Madonna's dancer was gay so what. It was like having orgy dancing with Madonna and rest of dancers .

[isisbenny404]

If you wanted to donate you could just lie. They test it anyway. Not saying that being untruthful is good, but if donating is that important, "don't ask don't tell".

[dhushw]

I understand where you are coming from, but its a matter of principle.

[kaishininjou]

damn rite its a matter of principle; people shouldnt hafta hide aspects of themselves in order to be treated equally. THAT IS NOT RITE!!! *that they're discriminated against, i mean*

[AceofDimonds0]

but the thing about that is, its not important if its gay blood. it matters if the person donating blood has an STD or AIDs, because it can be transfered.

however denying gays the right to give blood just on the premise that they are gay, is wrong.

[XxkatiekurxX]

@AceofDimonds0 ya got a point there. i agree now

[BinkieMcFartnuggets]

They should just take the blood and leave the decision up to the person who needs it. That way you don't hear crap from anyone and if by some chance someone does get sick they can have their way and make it a finalize rule.

[EldeoSoul]

lol they think the blood will be tainted with AIDS

[maynecuffs]

With all the problems in the world (which I also don't care about) why do we care about this. Wah waah, get a fucking job man.

[sfriendshipz]

and nobody care abt your comment!

[AceofDimonds0]

because some people actually like to give blood to save lives.

[xxMirokuJrxx]

Blood is no different because of sexuality, they always check it anyways.. I don't see what the big deal is, they need to allow it.

[hellavadeal]

If their blood is checked and nothing found , they should be allowed to give blood. Gay blood is no differant then strait blood, or blacks blood or chinese blood, or my blood. If I'm gona die without a transfusion ,I do not care who gives the blood has long has it is clean. Bad rule.

[ediblenapalm]

This shit is like say blacks can't donate because they might have sickle cell.

[sleonardelli]

ARC tests the blood donated regardless so banning gays is unnecessary.

[aarontheman9196]

@sleonardelli not everyone wants gay blood in there veins. think about it however you want, but its the truth.
