        Things like this show what the federal government can do to contribute to their own lives and end one of ours...especially our mothers and sisters lives, as a female's organs are more likely not to cause a reaction where it is not accepted.
        Explain a government that has secrets from it's citizens that elected that official to office????? Not ethical hugh?
