FDA eases restrictions on blood donations from gay men
Great. Now you might die without blood from a donor,or you might die afterwords from AIDS. Oh and yes I know they "screen" the blood but with the incompetence of the affirmative action crew who knows what can happen.
Or you might stop being an ignoramus and learn about the screening process.
I clearly said there was a screening process. Does the screening process stop terrorists getting into the country? No. Does it stop criminals from getting guns? No. So why in the hell would I assume it would stop fag blood infected with aids being given to a normal person?
Are terrorists and gun smugglers subjected to chemical screening?
