| Message | Unless otherwise stated, consent is assumed...? you must be joking , this is against any human rights agreement. Even dead have rights, this is ridicilous, this must be one of the most idiotic law suggestions ever.... |

| Message | No, it's one of the most sensible laws ever proposed. People can still choose not to donate their organs, as long as they specify so. If they don't then we can take their organs and give them to someone who actually needs them, say someone who isn't actually dead. This way we prevent organ transplant shortages, and learn to stop being so idiotically superstitious. I doubt the dead care about their organs - seeing as they're dead and all. |
