Hi to all in the forum

Just like to say hi will come and chat a little later just finishing off some homework, and believe me it is not easy writing in the heat here at the moment.

Hi to all at the forum.

Fantastic and interesting forum will look through more a little later, i drive a taxi in Portugal so if anyone from this forum comes on holiday to the Algarve Portugal, come and have a coffee with me, and i can also let you know lots of history from the area...

Love yer name!

ya dats wat u are retarded!! u may live by steriotypin but normal peeps dont u need 2 get a life more like it buddy!!!!!!!

stupid people

your comment is stupid and nothing will happen to the blood banks get a life. o yea thank god for discrimination and stereotyping its how humans survive.

That's Crap!

Everyone knows that individuals with certain blood diseases are permanently barred from ever giving blood, thus making them also ineligible to participate in this program. That would be defined as selective discrimination.

For those with HIV/AIDS, it's a violation of the Americans With Disabilities Act... and probably several state and municipal laws regarding the same.

Although the idea is well-meaning and their intentions are honorable, the fact remains... it's discrimination.
