This! This is my EXACT reasoning for being hesitant about donating my body after I die. This very reason. And then for the few people who I've told this too, they act as if I'm some sort of monster for wanting to be choose-y about who gets my organs.
I always thought of it like this: There is a possibility that some murderer could get a second chance at life because of my organs and then they go off and kill someone. I know, the chances aren't that likely, but there are A LOT of crazies out there and there is no telling what would happen.
Before you die, will you donate your body or just a part?
