    Hope you will repost this on the day of the event.

    I hate to say it, but that sign looks like the remnants of the Hillary campaign logo!

    Or, instead of supporting RTC with their ridiculous paid parking policy, you could go to the main donation center at Dulles Town Center.

      Paid parking doesn’t start until January, which is AFTER Tuesday, Dec 27, from noon – 7 pm. RTC doesn’t get reimbursed for you donating your blood, so it has nothing to do with supporting RTC.

        Boycott early, boycott often. The time to take corrective action is not when the crisis is upon you, but as far up front as you can.

        RTC does benefit from the bloodmobile. I’m sure the hope is that, once donors are there, they’ll spend some money at the local merchants’ establishments.

          Wow! Are your really so petty your willing to distrupt something that’s helpful to people in need?

            Yes, yes he is.
