So it seems like if you want to get a lot of comments you ask a question about a controversial topic.

Let's experiment and see if I can do it again.

So I'm on a mailing list where the discussion topic is the ban on gay and bisexual men donating blood to Canadian Blood Services. The person defending this ban claims it is necessary to safeguard blood recipients against HIV and Hepatitis.

I claim overt bigotry.

What do you think?

[EDIT] To be precise, the actual ban is on men who have ever had sex with men. They also ask women if they have ever had sex with a man who has ever had sex with a man. They do not ask questions about safe-sex practices. They do ask if you have ever had a test for HIV and why.
