And we should likewise accept organs from intravenous drug users? No, because intravenous drug users are -- by the very activity -- ****ing up the body and exposing themselves to all kinds of issues. Monogamous, long term gay couples are no more a risk than a married straight couple, for obvious reasons.

If 2 percent of your donors are 50 percent of your problems,wouldn't it make more sense to screen them out and cut your problematic donations in half? Not when you have people dying while waiting for the organs. Every organ counts, every life counts. And if you're going to spew BS numbers, cite them. Otherwise, can it.
