blood suckers

Why does conservative insanity and ignorance continue to surprise me? Going against all science and evidence presented, the Advisory Committee upheld the ban prohibiting gay men from donating blood. Drug users, prostitutes, and other high-risk populations are okay, but if a man has had any sexual relations with another man since 1977, their blood is TAINTED!

Witch! Witch! Wiiiiiiiitch!

Seriously. What. the. fuck?

The suffering and dying of people in need of blood is less important than keeping the stigma on "the gay." It's like the "citizens" on the Texas School Board also get to write health policy. Why do these panels always seem to be made up of people who stick crayons up their nose?
