WOW, sure took them long enough.


Well it's not really a case of discrimination here, the science actually supported this ban for a while and still supports a ban for a year after gay sex. HIV in blood is very much a worry.

Aren't they supposed to test the blood anyways? Honestly, this seems like racial profiling, only even more stupid.


They do test the blood. If you read the OP you'd see that there is a period of time after catching HIV that it cannot be detected in the blood.

And taking blood from a straight person and saying 'oh, this person's straight and AIDS is a gay disease, so I'm sure we can use it with no worries' is such a good ideea. This is just another case of demeaning gay people.

So by your logic it would be racial profiling to not take blood straight from some Nigerian or Ethiopian immigrants then. Its not fair to descriminate against Africans, just ignore the fact that these types of countries have the highest AIDS rates in the world and take their blood! Its the morally right thing to do.
