An illegal immigrant that I know (mexican male) says he wants to give blood again. He thinks it is funny that his blood might be used in transfusions of racist white americans. Would you knowingly accept his blood?

my friend is not racist. He would not flinch at taking blood from anyone. And I see where he would find that funny!

I was there when he gave blood the first time, and all you do is answer questions, then test for iron, then give. He is a good person and I would be very suprised if he had any illnesses, since he has been to the doctor in the last year.

If I was dying? I'd gladly take it and graciously thank him.
Of course, I'm not racist.

I would almost never knowingly accept anyone's blood. Those who do should be glad to get it. I am still opposed to illegal immigration, and I don't know what this has to do with the topic. Citizens donate blood too. And he could do just as much good by donating blood in his native country. They probably need it more.

Why not? If it's a question of life and death and it usually is. Absolutley! Blood is blood. Politics should NEVER be messed up in life and death situations. But it ALWAYS is and it's really sad. I am not sure if you are asking if I would take it knowing he is mexican or know he is an illegal mexican. Makes no difference. If people are so worried about race and where the blood is coming from... how are they so sure the care they are getting is completely from one race or another? It's ludicrous! We are all from different walks of life. I just shake my head at racism. This life is too short for such stupidity!

I have also given blood and never wondered if an illegal got it....
So, per this example,should I now have to wonder if he/she is a racist mexican who is only here for what can be "got"?
I do not recall I asked that question when I gave blood...I'm sorry that he takes delight in being a jerk.
But what can you expect from someone who is breaking our laws, taking our social services, and then mocking us....

I disagree with you'll because if it came down to me needed blood. I'ma pray to the man who gave me blood in the first place. Then it's up to Him weather or not I get this blood. I would rather be with Him than to except the blood of the Devil.

Your question is irrelevant to immigration,would your "friend"the illegal accept blood from the White racists ? How many times is this question been asked and answered before?
There's no difference in a Hispanic Racist or a white racists they are the same Alberto.

I think him and this question are ridiculous. Blood is blood and your racist little friend needs to go back to his own country. This could be looked at another way, he could have an accident and need a blood transfusion, and it could be anyone of a 100 nationalities that make up this countries blood. LOL...... that is called poetic justice.

Good for him, he might be saving someone's life! Blood is red and when you need it to stay alive you won't care where it came from.
