I Wonder If There Is Anyone So Racist To Refuse Life Saving Blood Transfusion From Non White

The Trump crowd is so bigoted and racist I wonder if anyone of them would refuse life saving blood transfusion or body part from a person who is non white. Or is they would refuse if the knew the person as LGBT. I just sense that Trumpers are a truly pig headed rock headed crowd.

that the Nazis had someone they regarded as a hero because the person had refused treatment from a Jewish doctor and then died.

I don't recall the man's name. Maybe someone here knows?

- Dying Romulan. Work the only compatible tissue donor.
- Worf can't bring himself to donate to the race that killed his parents.
- Dying Romulan tells Worf he'd rather die than be polluted by Klingon blood.

I'm guessing there was some actual event that led the writers down that path.
