We Don't All Have AIDS
American Spectator ^ | 22 Aug 06 | Micheal Fumento

Posted on 08/22/2006 6:49:46 AM PDT by rellimpank

Calls for prevention highlighted the opening day of the 16th International AIDS Conference in Toronto last week. Alas, it's too late. On the same day the Washington Post, carried a photo on its front page depicting a man wearing a T-shirt reading: "We all have AIDS." Toss out those condoms; forget abstinence, and don't bother getting tested. Or what part of "all" don't you understand?

Seriously, this bit of propaganda is but one illustration of

AIDS is a behaviorally contracted disease. That is why liberals favor spending money to allow politically correct victims to engage in unhealthy lifestyles. With every other disease, they wouldn't even dream of it.

I'm absolutely, 100% not at risk of contracting HIV.

Now, I'm not entirely sure if that is something I should be proud of... /sarc

We all have AIDS

I hate this brainwashing ad. It is similar to the one from the past that stated that everyone needs to get tested for AIDS. Why would someone that is not an IV drug user nor promiscuous need to get tested?

THe author has been a treasure in Science reporting for over a decade. I think he was the first and best on the subject of the risks to ordinary hetrosexuals, with his oft-banned book The Myth of Heterosexual AIDS. It said sixteen years ago what we all know to be true:
1. We're not all gonna die.
2. People with ordinary habits are not at risk.
3. Those with unusual habits can avoid it with ordinary protection measures.
4. Is it mostly being demagogued by the pro-gay left and the anti-sex right.

I am all for mandatory testing, I think everyone in the world should have the test. The thing is, those that test positive should then have their groin dyed with a permanent purple stain, along with each armpit. That way their partners and health care workers would know immediately if they are infected or not.

"I think everyone in the world should have the test. The thing is, those that test positive should then have their groin dyed with a permanent purple stain, along with each armpit. That way their partners and health care workers would know immediately if they are infected or not."

That might actually prove tantalizing to a certain group of individuals...

Everyone has AIDS!
AIDS AIDS AIDS!
AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS!
Everyone has AIDS!

And so this is the end of our story
And everyone is dead from AIDS
It took from me my best friend
My only true pal
My only bright star (he died of AIDS)

Well I'm gonna march on Washington
Lead the fight and charge the brigades
There's a hero inside of all of us
I'll make them see everyone has AIDS

My father (AIDS!)
My sister (AIDS!)
My uncle and my cousin and her best friend (AIDS AIDS AIDS!)
The gays and the straights
And the whites and the spades

Everyone has AIDS!
My grandma and my dog 'ol blue (AIDS AIDS AIDS)
The pope has got it and so do you (AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS)
C'mon everybody we got quilting to do (AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS)
We gotta break down these baricades, everyone has
AIDS!

AIDS! AIDS! AIDS! AIDS! AIDS! AIDS! AIDS! AIDS! AIDS! AIDS! AIDS! AIDS! AIDS! AIDS! AIDS! AIDS! AIDS! AIDS! AIDS!

AIDS!

It's why it remains very hard to take gay rights seriously, when they argue they are just as "normal" as everyone else. I don't see a substantial chunk of the straight "community" engaged in deadly behavior such as this. Sorry, folks, but this is ABnormal.

No, what we are all in danger of is MRSA(Methicillin resistant staph aureus) WASH YOUR HANDS, DON'T TOUCH YOUR FACE UNLESS YOU WASH YOUR HANDS, CARRY WATERLESS HAND CLEANER. I used to think this was paranoid, but as a nurse seeing the epidemic of this organism, I don't anymore.

And we have to foot the bill for their drugs to keep them alive. All of us have to pay more for insurance because these guys have to have those expensive antiviral cocktails that cost mega bucks, and they feel they are entitled to receive them so they can continue their "normal" lives.

Many times prolonging their lives only means that more people are infected by them, I think the best thing to do is allow them to take the drugs, but only if they take a couple thousand milligrams of saltpeter with it.
