up in Canada, its pretty easy to give blood. After its done they feed you lots of sugar to get your energy back up. It really doesn't affect the average person very much, but some people get hit hard. Plan on taking it easy after, just in case.

If I remember correctly, isn't blood type O the most common?

30 litres of blood sounds like a lot, but there's free transportation... too pad I don't live in Poland lol

If I remember correct, type O is the rarest typs of blood, that can also be accepted by any other type of blood. I really should go donate blood, since I've never done it. I'm really not that selfish, so I'm going to go donate soon.

I don't think you can give 30 litres of blood in Canada. You can give 12 at most i think. YOu have to wait like two months in between giving it.

That is one of the dumbet soap boxes ever to stand on, and I can only hope that at some point in their lives they will see the light.

Really?

Hundreds of thousands of people have died during this war?

That comment is as ignorant as you are - what other conclusion can one come to in light of your wishing a horrible death to others.

ok maybe i exaggerated a little but the number is up in the 10'sa of thousands im sure. and im talking about innocent iraq's and people of other cultures that have died due to the invasion of iraq. and people will continue to die because of the usa's stupid government. its a plain and simple fact the u.s government cant do anything right and that includes wiping their own asses.

im only wishing to others what they wanted to do to the iraq's. and don't give me that bs that they wanted to help crap, if anyone actually belives that they to need to be taken off the face of this earth.

im not saying this to offend anyone but its just how i feel. kinda like the person who started the post and mentioned how they didn't like what the protesters were doing.
You imigrated to the USA - correct?

If so - then as one immigrant to another.

Fuckoff and go live someplace else?

Mmmmkay?

First off.. the us government does not equal us military personel. So what your saying is complete and utter bullshit and think you should get the hell out of our country. I dont care if they take over france(thatd take all of a day..) you still should care and support our troops..
You disgust me.

and if you don't like it when people voice their opinions then i recommend you don't go on any forum and for that matter don't leave your house or turn on your tv and just isolate your self from the world.
You have the rights and freedoms to voice your opinions about the government, Bush, Kerry, the President, the Military and anything else you wish to voice your opinion on.

Hell - you can even hate any of the above. And carry around banners bragging as such.

However - you sir indicate hatred for the United States of America.

The country is greater than any single person, party or institution... it stands for something far deeper.

And if you can't appreciate that - please just leave.

Oh - you are afraid to because you would be poor in another country.

So - the United States of America (the country) is good enough to provide you and your family wealth and prosperity - but does not deserve your respect or loyalty? (the country - not a party or government)

Citizenship is wasted on your sorry ass. I would go so far as to say your disloyalty and hatred for the country is tantamount to treason.

How sad.

TT please move this thread to the political forum - I don't want this discussion to affect the General Forum.

You're too extreme, RC. It's his country too. He (or his parents) also paid taxes and helped the country to thrive. Just because he doesn't agree with the war doesn't mean he hates his country.

You missed the entire point - it may be "his" county - but not to hate or dispise. At that point you no longer deserve to stay.
