Are you signed up to be an organ donor upon your death?

And if you're not, why are you such a carp jerk?
I'm not signed up because honestly I've never thought about it before.

I tend to try to keep the idea of dying out of my mind. lol

But I will likely sign up when I feel my time is coming. >_>
Because people don't usually like to think about what gets done to their bodies after they die. What's with the sudden urge to guilt everyone into surrendering their entrails to science?
What if you have some disease with some nasty effect to your organs? Or like you have wide spread cancer? Or even aids? I don't have a license so no I don't have an organ donor card.

Because you're carp dead and you don't need them and they can save people's lives. This is the only time you'll ever be able to save someone's life by the means of doing absolutely nothing.

Obviously if you're illegible that's different. I'll add that option.

Also, you don't need a license! Even a note written by you in your wallet will suffice! Or given to your family. This isn't mandated. I just have a cardboard organ donor card.
I voted for the latter. Uncertain

I'll sign up for organ donation when the time comes, lol. If death comes too soon, my parents could always sign up for me right? Chocked
I voted yes because I will be.

They could say no. Don't leave the fate in someone else's hands. People are dying every day because there aren't enough organs.

I honestly think organ donation should be mandated by law.
I have been known to be a jerk, but not in this case.

Been singed up as one since I got my DL at 16.

I don't see why it isn't, honestly.

What good is it doing by not giving them up? If you don't they'll literally just go to waste. :\
Because people are uncomfortable with giving up their organs. Wahhhh I'm uncomfortable with things that will happen after my capability to feel uncomfortable about it expires ;_;
...

That's stupid. Seriously.

WAHHH I WANT MY ORGANS TO ROT WITH THE REST OF ME.

alot of religions see any way of messing with a dead body against their religion so making it mandatory wouldnt be an option in culturaly diverse countries. but they should make it more aware to people that they have the option to do it
im not

i've never really thought about it before

im not really sure if it fits into my religion or not
I'm going to stick my neck out on this one.

Religion is carp retarded for prohibiting this. I mean seriously, you can save other people's lives.

What religion wouldn't encourage this?
there are some that consider the body too "special" even after death

Maybe mine.

In it your body is considered sacred.

Hell, I'm not even supposed to throw my toe nail clippings in the garbage and when I get my hair cut I keep the hair.

Like I said I am not really sure.

Added a fourth option.

lol amish
I'm not sure if I'm registered even. I guess I will if mine are ok.
G Wrote:I'm not sure if I'm registered even. I guess I will if mine are ok.

Write a note authorizing it, stick it in your wallet. Done.

(I'm very passionate about this.)
All I'm gonna say is fourth option is pretty tasteless.


And yeah, I'm a donor.
