Tell that to the nut who fired a few of his employees for smoking at home. The risk of serious illness from active smoking is 25%.
The risk of serious illness from deviant and pervert behavior is close to 100%.
It didn't take me long to choose a strategy in dealing with Gay propaganda: Ignore it completely.
AIDS risk to me? Zero.
I do sit up and take notice whenever the perverts try to reach again into my checkbook.
AIDS is not a disease, but a civil rights status.
A totally preventable disease yet I guess the homosexual community would rather enjoy their "pleasure" and let the rest of the world figure out how to save them. And the homosexuals will continue to try to force their lifestyle into our schools and try to convince our children that the homosexual lifestyle should be celebrated. Insanity.
"As I have written in many texts...."
I like David Horowitz a lot, and I know I am quibbling, but isn't calling his books "texts" just a tad pretentious?
"the only way to stop the epidemic and save lives was to conduct a massive campaign against promiscuous anal sex"
And yet, the ad champaigns in my area would never give you a clue that AIDS is anything but a heterosexual diease.
The real problem is that it used to be $100,000 for a year or two, then $50,000 for a six months of hospice, then a $10,000 funeral. That's barely affordable but not out of the ballpark for society. Now it's $25,000 a year in drugs indefinitely, plus hospitalization costs off and on, plus the $250,000 in critical care costs as the patient gets closer to death. This is not affordable in the long run, as fewer healthies will have to more and more sickies on top of the demographics problems in SS and medicare. In short, their venal and selfish behavior is not sustainable.
AIDS/HIV is certainly scary, but not being gay or being promiscuous certainly cuts down the risk. If saying that isn't PC, that's too bad. However, there's plenty to fear from the flu, especially the bird flu which kills something like 80% of those who contract it.
A diversionary propaganda technique I see a lot in these leftist screeds. First you open with a sensible question then you ignore it and get on with the sophistry. It gives the author, and those who want to believe what he's saying, that warm and fuzzy feeling that they've been fair and intellectual about it all.
Back in the last milennium the MSM had a field day with the case of a Nun who got HIV. Of course that was before CDC secured the national supply from junkies selling blood to pay for their drug habits. But the liberal medical ethics community's first move was to protect gays from 'persecution' and prejudice, not to fight the disease.
The Chicago Sun-Times did an article on Sunday regarding the alarming increase of meth addiction in Boys' Town (no, not the Spencer Tracy "Boys Town"). Talk about double jeopardy - dirty syringes AND promiscuous gay sex.
If the fruits want to take their chances with aids that doesnt bother me too much,Its their life their decision. What really ticks me off are the bi-sexual freaks who pound their buddies butt then want to go home and give it to their wives who have no idea that their husband is a freak.
IMO these men are guilty of the attempted murder of their wives.
One of the most blatant hypocrisies that I have seen in the way that the media coddles the homosexual community is:
Ask most Americans who Pfc. Lynndie England is and they will be able to tell you that she was "horrible female soldier" that took photos with prisoners at Abu Ghraib and undermined our image in the area through her behavior. She has been all over NYT, CNN, CBS, etc..
Ask most Americans who Pvt. Federico Daniel Merida is and you will find that only a small group of Americans know. If you search NYT, CNN, CBS, etc. odds are you will come up with nothing. That is not to say that the story was not reported, just not in the heterosexual media. Do a Google on the name Pvt. Federico Daniel Merida and you will find the story only in homosexual publications - read and decide yourself why MSM would ignore this story and spend more time villifying soldiers at Abu Ghraib.
U.S. soldier claims ‘gay panic’ made him kill Iraqi
Guardsman says he shot Iraqi soldier after consensual sex

A North Carolina National Guard soldier claims he shot an Iraqi soldier 11 times and killed him last spring after the two men had consensual sex while on duty near Tikrit, Iraq, according to a court martial report released by the military to media outlets.
Pvt. Federico Daniel Merida, 21, pled guilty to second-degree murder in the death of Falah Zaggam, a 17-year-old Iraqi national guardsman, military records claim. After officials began an investigation into the death, Merida, who is married and has a 2-year-old son, used a gay panic defense as one of his three excuses for the crime.
Merida was sentenced to 25 years in prison in September. The Los Angeles Times first reported the case in October, but it has been mostly overlooked by mainstream American media. The only other newspaper to do a major story on the case was in Merida’s home state of North Carolina last month.
When Merida claimed he killed Zaggam in a fit of rage after the two had consensual sex, he received a cool reception from military investigators.
“That’s what is fascinating about this case,” said Aaron Belkin, director of the Center for the Study of Sexual Minorities in the Military.
“About 20 years ago when America was much more homophobic than it is today, the ‘gay panic’ defense would have had a much higher chance of working, but it appears in this case that the officers or judges didn’t let him use that. That could indicate one small step forward for the military.”
Zaggam’s friends and family told the Los Angeles Times they believe Merida tried to rape Zaggam, and then killed him to cover up what he had done.
The Blade was unable to obtain a copy of the court martial report. The following is what the report claims happens, according to the L.A. Times and the Raleigh (N.C.) News & Observer.
Merida and Zaggam were alone on guard duty in a tower at a military base in Ad Dawr, near Tikrit last spring. Before their shift was over, Merida had shot Zaggam 11 times and threw his body off the tower. Witnesses reported hearing shots fired at 10:30 p.m. and then watched as a body fell from the tower.
“From the news accounts I read, it appeared to be premeditated,” said Jim Klimaski, a member of the Military Law Task Force. “It looks like he waived his rights and there was no lawyer present.
“I don’t know, but just from reading those news accounts it appears the military just wanted this case to go away. They had him in premeditation, but let him off with second-degree murder in exchange for a guilty plea.”
Three excuses
Merida first claimed that Zaggam had tried to rob him and he was forced to defend himself. When skeptical investigators continued to challenge that story, Merida then claimed that the Zaggam forced him to have sex.
The third excuse was the two men had consensual sex and then Zaggam tried to blackmail him, saying he would reveal the affair to Merida’s wife and officers.
The Times quoted Zaggam’s family as doubting that claim because the teen could not speak English and therefore could not make any claims to U.S. officials. They also said Zaggam was not a big man, and it was unlikely he could force Merida to do anything.
During the trial, according to the Times, Merida had witnesses testify that he was a victim of sexual abuse as a child and that might have led to his violent reaction.
All of our law makers, judges media moguls of TV and Print, educators and all others who promote this deviant lifestyle should have their children or themselves sent to Homosexual Camps to be the test cases for the rest of the populaces to convience us that this is safe and acceptable!
Hint ... It's not gay
New AIDS Strain? Of Course.
Homosexual activists are already protesting the announcement of the appearance of a new and deadly strain of the AIDS virus. In reporting the story, the The New York Times wondered aloud about the protests (e.g., who could protest a scientific announcement?) but then went on to justify it: announcing the new strain apparently might call attention to the continued reckless behavior of the homosexual community, and its continued intimidation of public health officials â€" as in this protest. Of course the Times didn't quite put it this way, but that was its meaning.
This protest is a deadly analogue to the hysteria at Harvard where feminist ideologues have successfully brought the Harvard presidency to its knees and made it impossible to conduct a serious discussion about women's opportunities in science. Unfortunately, the intimdations by homosexual activists of public health officials have led to something more serious than the dumbing down of a once great intellectual institution like Harvard. The mindless political attacks by the homosexual left on any public health official uttering the truth has led directly to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of homosexual males in the 25 years of the epidemic.
As I have written in many texts (Radical Son, The Politics of Bad Faith, Left Illusions) the public health profession, including the leading homosexual doctors in this field, had already said in 1983 that it would take a decade to develop a vaccine (they were wrong) and that there might never be a cure for the disease.
Therefore, the only way to stop the epidemic and save lives was to conduct a massive campaign against promiscuous anal sex, the primary cause of the epidemic from the beginning (Note: the primary cause of the epidemic -- that is the exponential increase in AIDS cases. Homosexual leaders blocked this path and insisted that public health officials and in effect the entire nation avert their eyes from the cause of the epidemic, pretend HIV was an "equal opportunity virus" (it was not), and that vague "education" programs and condoms could halt its spread.
Of course there are going to be new strains of the virus. It mutates. It will find a way to defeat the medical silver bullets that are aimed in its direction. This is a standard lesson from the medical past. When it was introduced, penicillin was a cure for syphilis. Has syphilis disappeared? On the contrary, new strains have developed and new epidemics have followed in their wake. QED. As both the New York Times and the leftwing homosexual leadership have shown, the price of political correctness can be death.

Oh my, that sounded intolerant, didn't it? I didn't mean for it to, I honestly don't care what consenting adults do in private.
It's just that being tolerant, in this case, means ignoring the self-destructive behavior of a subgroup of my fellow Americans, knowing full well that when it comes time to pay the consequences, they will try to cast the blame on the rest of society for not doing more about the problem.
Right on, David! If the media would only listen and get behind the right side on this issue, it would save a lot of lives! The public better wake up to it before it's too late!
It's too bad the public health officials have had to endure the attacks.
Sodom and Gohmorrah was primarly dumped out on American shores via Roman Catholic Churchs, however,
just as the church is paying for sadist priest sodomizing the kiddies, so too, should it be responsible for all that which came with Sodom and Gohmorrah, the whole package, diseases included.
