Saving lives is pretty hot, but its a shame they don't let you do this if you're gay or use cannabis.
Edit: this is getting out of hand, I do not live in the US. Happy for y'all that do! Although, overall I'm pretty glad not to be living there.
Who's barring cannabis users? Red Cross at least only has a problem if your decision-making appears impaired. They don't even ask you to wait between smoking and donating as long as you're thinking clearly enough.
People who take drugs are banned from giving blood in many countries.
