| Message | ABOSULUTELY NOT. The state maintains no right to harvest the organs of the dead. I myself expressed my desire to donate my organs. However, people die suddenly or without planning. The state should not presume that they can take people's loved ones from them, cut them apart, and then return the pieces to their grieving family. Barbaric. |

| Message | If people do not have enough common sense to draw up a will or other legal document then why should innocent people suffer. If people are so strongly opposed to the harvesting of their organs after their death then it should encourage them to draw up a will (or other legal document) to express their wishes. |

| Message | I'm sorry, I disagree. That's like saying, "If someone fails to wear a large sign that says : 'Don't shoot me,' than anyone could be able to." 1) People believe themselves invincible and fail to plan accordingly. 2) People die accidently or without notice. |
