Soap Box needed

http://www.number-10.gov.uk/output/Page11729.asp

There has just been an official response to the petition against banning gay men from giving blood and it has made me so mad, but with no where to rant I have resorted yet again to using my blog as a soap box to make me feel better.

Their argument is that of the blood given that tests positive for HIV or HepB a high proportion turns out to be from gay men. This doesn't acknowledge the fact that it is all based around the donor's honesty and integrity, rather than sexual preference. You can't tell someone is gay, nor can you tell if they are a completely reckless slut - its up to them to be honest.
