Kinda like how if someone dying of kidney failure asked for my kidneys and I said no, I'm basically telling them to drop dead.

Currently, 17 people die each day on the organ transplant list. I'm representing one of them, and coming directly and specifically to you. Will you donate a kidney?

I am not a lawyer, however I have no reason to believe that this is a sincere request. Instead I believe this is an attempt to propose a Preposterous question without evidence, in order to use my answer against me. And for that reason I refuse to answer it.

Yes, saying that anyone who doesn't donate an organ to someone else is a killer is prepostorous, I agree.

Claiming to be rational and twisting someone else's words around, do not go hand in hand.
