Idiots: BBC's Have Your Say

Panic [Edit] [Delete] 17:05, 13 January '08

It's Sunday and I really want to sneer at people cowardly behind their back and laugh at their stupidity. Who's with me?!

On the organ donation opt-out proposals:

"It's not a good idea it's going to cost money which the goverment moan about not having.
They should put the money towards more housing and get yob's off the street by putting community halls up so people/ children can go and be safe."

"Apart from the fact that we will have many more Alder Hey type scandals (dead babys organs in glass jars, remember?)...some people wish to give family members a burial without having their body parts harvested"

"I will opt out, not to deprive any person who may need my organs, but to deprive NULABOUR of the right to steal my body after they've stolen every other bit of freedom and dignity that I might have had during my life"

"this country does not own me and never will,i am not a source of spare parts,if i decide to donate part of me i will do it of my own free will and not because some half wit prime minister decides i will"

"If i was cow or a pig transplanting my heart to another cow or pig of same herd then yes why not - but i am a unique human being and there is no other human being like me."

"You people dont get it. The issue is doctors taking your organs and not working hard enough to save you, and the pathetic government messing up the opt out register! These are not small things!! They both mean more chance of me dying and less chance of being saved! These are the only issues needing debate!"

"Why do the lowlife of medical students and freak mentally deranged "doctors" seem to think its quite OK to be scavenging around in peoples dead body for spare parts,..like you wanted to fix a motor car from the local scrap yard? Your mentally retarded in my opinion,..and should be locked up in mental homes,..or are those people to be scavenged too ,..like the nazi's did ?"

"No I do not want the government to decide what happens to my body you set a precedent then for people looking to kill some one for there organs - and i'm sure our muslim chums won't want this eather... NO NO NO"

I think the gold medal must go to Betty Churchill, managing to crowbar freedom and Hitler into a debate on organ donation:

"Sorry, am I having a nightmare here - I thought there was something called Freedom of Choice in the UK.You can gaurantee I will go to my grave with everything that came into the world with me.Gordon Brown, what was WWII all about when we stopped Hitler from using minority people for his medical experiments? And you want to bring back the body snatchers? For Shame!!!!"
