Blood Drive Canceled for Excluding Homosexuals

(Montreal, Canada) This story almost seems silly. Homosexuals are complaining that they are discriminated against because they are not allowed to donate blood.

Quebec's largest school board has voted to cancel Hema Quebec's annual blood drive at its Montreal offices and will remain in effect until the blood agency changes its policy of excluding gay male donors.

It is beyond my ability to comprehend what they are trying to accomplish. Blood Banks attempt to eliminate all possible pathways for contaminants to taint the blood supply and the exclusion of homosexual men, along with IV drug users, the recently tattooed, and others deemed necessary is not only prudent, but should be expected.

I believe that public confidence in the donated blood supply would be lost if it were known that it included blood from male homosexuals. I also think it is beyond cruel to hold hostage those individuals needing life-saving blood for the sake of imagined homosexual rights.
