That sucks. Last time I tried was maybe 2002. I left the UK in 1994. I figured that at some point (10 years? 15 years) they'd let me give blood again. Sheesh. Trent (a.k.a. the idiot who dredged this up), if you see this, how about a medical explanation? Can I really carry something in my blood that long that doesn't hurt me but makes my blood useless?

Examples please? Who said that?
From the Texas Parks & Wildlife website relative to Coyotes... "No closed season. These animals may be hunted at any time by any lawful means or methods on private property. Public hunting lands may have restrictions. A hunting license is required." Annie, get your guns! Lynn B
Hold on a sec. You mean I could have been shooting coyotes all this time? Damn. I've been running roads when I could have been getting Revenge of the Road Runner. meep meep

Plus many jokes about road runners etc.... the general gist of the first two pages of this thread was "kill them all" and have a pile of coyotes in your back garden. Fun for all, eh? I know that people still go hunting in England but the point I'm trying to get across is that it's mainly rich people living out in the country who have nothing better to do and still do it for "sport" - it's not primarily to feed themselves, as anyone too poor to buy meat would not be able to afford the licensing for a gun!! All I'm trying to say is that it seems like a whole lot more Americans are okay with the idea of walking out your back door and shooting a wild animal. If this was a UK based forum talking about foxes being a pain in the arse you wouldn't get one single person suggesting you shoot it. This isn't a judgement on your culture or me having a go, it was merely an observation.

Jesus I'm completely shocked by how many of you are totally fine with the idea of shooting wild animals?!?!?!
and we in Wisconsin were getting such a bad rap for trying to allow shooting of cats.
and we in Wisconsin were getting such a bad rap for trying to allow shooting of cats. I'm fine with hunting as long as people don't consider it sport. I would only call it sport if you go hand to hand against the animal. A violent sport? Yes. But at least there would be some element of risk for the human in "losing" said match.

/Off-Trent's-personal-comet-topic: Hey, is that still true? Do you have any idea what the time limit is on that, if there is one? Last time I tried to give blood, I got turned away for the same reason. But its been over a decade now, I wonder if I can give blood again ...? /Back to the coyote murdering
I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.

I'm going to put on my fur-lined leather coat and my leather boots and go to an anti-hunting rally tomorrow. I have my rotisserie chicken picnic almost all packed. I'm just trying to raise awareness.
