I subscribe to CDC updates, as i collect and provide Revealing Statistics, and part of the summation of the above states,
Using meta-analysis with behavioral data from population-based surveys, CDC found that men who engaged in same-sex behavior in the past five years comprised 3.9% (3.5 - 4.4) of the U.S. adult male population. Men who recall ever engaging in same-sex behavior comprised 6.9% (5.1-8.6) of the U.S. adult male population. In a recent publication, CDC used the 5-year estimate as a conservative, mid-range estimate of the size of the MSM population. Compared to other men and women, HIV rates among MSM were 38 to 75 times as high, and syphilis rates were 63 to 109 times as high.
The meta-analysis estimated that lifetime IDU comprise 2.6% (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.8% - 3.3%) of the U.S. population age 13 years or older; the past-year IDU estimate was 0.30% (95% CI: 0.19 % - 0.41%). Comparing black IDU to white IDU, the rate of HIV diagnosis was nearly 15 times as high; comparing Hispanic/Latino to white IDU, the rate was more than 9 times as high.
Ping for your group.
Note, over half a million dead refers to America, it is over 25 mil worldwide.
Does this mean you are against ‘marriage equality’ ??
I mean it sounds sooo inclusive ..
:)
Actually, marriage would reduce the rates, if homosexual marriage did not also redefine marriage not only in what are joined together, which God only provided for male and female, but also as regards monogamy, as promiscuity reigns among “married” homosexual men.
>MSM accounted for 53% of estimated new HIV infections in the United States in 2006 and MSM who also injected drugs accounted for an additional 4% of estimated new infections [1].<
.
So, the MSM is guilty of more than just lying to the public.
Death Panel
The frightening aspect of these statistics is that the military budget will be drained dry by HIV victims who claim their condition is a service-related disability. This is my biggest reason for still opposing gays in the military.

“Compared to other men and women, for the two HIV disease metrics, MSM rates were 38 to 75 times as high, and for P&S syphilis, rates were 63 to 109 as high.”
‘63 to 109 as high’
How exactly can something be over a 100? I realize these ‘practices’ expose people to lots of bad stuff, but how can a rate be 109 times as high? Getting multiple types of syphilis?
We all know that Congress will cut disabled vet and retired military funding first and transfer that savings over to fund these miscreants.
Don’t ask me! I saw it but did not read all the data to figure out how that can be done. See link at top.
I’ve known two people with AIDS in my life, both now dead from the disease. One was black, for all his other faults he was a decent fellow, very talented singer. You have heard his voice if you listen to popular R&B from the seventies and eighties, backup though, you wouldn’t recognize his name.
The progression of that disease with him was straight out of the Old Testament, it took his voice, he couldn’t sing, then could barely speak, then mute. He became bedridden, the life just seemed to be eaten up, leaving a wooden, ashen shell but he was still alive.
His family would have nothing to do with him, he was alone in that regard until an aunt in Houston got word of his condition. She flew in, got him situated to fly which was not easy as he was nearing death and medically fragile. She took him back to care for him in his last days and to get him right with God. I hope she did. He died two months later.
The other, no one really had any inkling, he was a friend of a friend, came across as very arrogant, had everything going for him, seemingly. He developed a case of what appeared to be merely athlete’s foot, but it spread, eventually involving most of his legs. His infection was discovered over the course of seeking treatment for that. I found out after his death that he apparently would slip over to the black side of town and have anonymous sex with men. He was white. He was not Christian, at all. Bristled at the mention of it. He died a very unhappy death, almost tormented. No peace. It was sad, but he was not the most sympathetic character.
E.g., one case per 1,000 pop. vs 109 cases per 1,000 pop.
What's also not said is there's a deranged group of gays that actively seek out infected sex partners. For them if give a “high” like playing Russian roulette. If they are successful and get infected, these people actively go out to infect others. It is sick and demented — and dangerous. This also affects women if their partner is infected and bisexual. Infection rates for women by these infected men is a 1 in 5 chances to transmit their infection to a healthy woman.
This is what we have to deal with,
In the 1980s it all seemed so simple(before the HIV drugs) when it was obvious it was killing them, but now they can hide the curse they bring on themselves.

Gay marriage in the military, free condoms in schools, and pro Muslim, anti-Christian and anti-Israel actions increasing. The country overall is gone, and is cruisin for a bruisin.
