Even in the world as we know it, people with O-type blood are far more useful than people with any other type of blood when it comes to blood donation. Informing them of that fact and encouraging them to donate (which the Red Cross absolutely does if they find out you have it), or even establishing some sort of system to positively reward those people for periodic donation, would be entirely acceptable. But the moment you start forcing those people to donate blood against their will, you've crossed a very significant line and you're basically an asshole. Same reason I'm against things like mandatory organ donation or the like. YOU don't get to make those sorts of decisions for other people, even if those decisions might save lives. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family ...
