Excessive drinkers and smokers end up needing transplants and tbh they're the one's who screwed their own organs up.

Many of those guys are not eligible for transplant though. There is a shortage of organs as it is, the priority is hardly for Snake to get your liver.



As totally awesome as that would be, dude.

There is a priority list,people like that are never near the top of it. And just because someone has made a bad mistake in their life doesn't mean they deserve to die.

What if its a murderer, would you be happy your organs going to that sort of person.
And people who abuse their organs and get a transplant may not learn after that, just look at george best, didnt he have 2 liver transplants (or was it just one??)

Ok there's a difference between a murderer and an alcholic for one. George Best just had one liver transplant. I don't think organs would be given to murderers very often anyways. I wish I knew about this.

Anyways I would give my organs no matter what,a life is a life.

That's because he was George freakin' Best.

It's a bit of a piss poor, clutching at straws argument against organ donation really. I think we can safely assume, as people already said, that a murderer will never be getting your organs.

They have priority lists. I imagine murderers go somewhere near the bottom of that list.

And whats with this dignified burial stuff? I wasn't aware that there was a dignified manner to be locked in a box under six feet of dirt rotting away without a change of clothes while sick kids suffer on organ waiting lists.

~dignity?

It was just because George Best is the only high proflie case i could use, I could hardly say, the guy who lives down the road.
