AIDS? Cocaine?
It's flouride in the water. That's where they put it!

More than 20 years after the AIDS epidemic arrived in the United States, a significant proportion of African Americans embrace the theory that government scientists created the disease to control or wipe out their communities, according to a study released today by Rand Corp. and Oregon State University.
That belief markedly hurts efforts to prevent the spread of the disease among black Americans, the study's authors and activists said. African Americans represent 13 percent of the U.S. population, according to Census Bureau figures, yet they account for 50 percent of new HIV infections in the nation, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Nearly half of the 500 African Americans surveyed said that HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, is man-made. The study, which was supported by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, appears in the Feb. 1 edition of the Journal of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndromes.
More than one-quarter said they believed that AIDS was produced in a government laboratory, and 12 percent believed it was created and spread by the CIA.
A slight majority said they believe that a cure for AIDS is being withheld from the poor. Forty-four percent said people who take the new medicines for HIV are government guinea pigs, and 15 percent said AIDS is a form of genocide against black people.

Yeah, because we all know the government forces blacks to have unprotected sex and gay sex.
Don't forget the CIA cocaine conspiracy too.
Right. The government forces blacks to engage in unsafe sex, thereby increasing their risk of getting AIDS.
This kind of stuff keeps the likes of Maxine Waters in office.
It reminds me of the science fiction writer who started a "church" and people still believe his outlandish fables as true gospel.

***Nearly half of the 500 African Americans surveyed said that HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, is man-made****
100% of the 500 African Americans interviewed think everything bad that ever happens to a black person is caused by " The Man".
Its easier to blame it on the white man than to take personal responsibility.
Wes Clark?
Quite sad. What are you going to do. The Democratic party has picked up on this long ago and has harnassed an entire race of people with lies, deception and misinformation in a very effective way. I will be surprised if the GOP ever gets more than 20% of the Black vote. These folks are in it neck deep and are unable to identify the sham they are involved in.
Because they believe it is the government's job.
The real conspiracy to control or wipe them out is called abortion.
"We should hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities. The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We don't want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population…"

Genuine leaders of the black community would note and then attack these pockets of self-destructive ignorance in their community. Have the Right Reverends Jackson and Sharpton been heard from? No? I thought not.

Yeah, we learned that in deviant behavior last semester, taught by a black professor who actually infiltrated notorious LA gangs to do a study on violent gang activities. Apparently a lot of blacks believe in wild conspriacy theories such as these thanks to the likes of the NAACP types. Very sad, but liberals love this type of manipulation.
