Reminds me of the late Freddie Mercury of the band Queen. Kept denying he was gay and had AIDS, as it became more and more obvious he was gravely ill. I think he finally issued a press release admitting he was gay and had AIDS 24 hours before he died. Of course, if it had happened today, liberals would be celebrating his lifestyle (sickeningly, I think they even applaud having an openly HIV positive gay DemonRAT replacing another openly HIV positive gay DemonRAT in the Illinois House).
The weird case I don't get is Magic Johnson. I remember being a kid when this guy announced he was HIV positive in 1991, and back in 1992 they had all us grade schoolers panicked about the AIDS epidemic and "living in the age of AIDS" (scared the crap out of us 6th graders, they made the situation in America sound like South Africa). I remember thinking the guy would be dead by 1995. How is it that everyone else who was diagnosed "HIV positive" in 1990 got AIDS within 5 years and died, but that guy is alive and well?
You know what? I’m starting to think Magic Johnson NEVER had AIDS.
Maybe it was all some “effort to spread awareness” and he was on the verge of retiring ANYWAY...?
Shudda been bug food DECADES ago.
Easy E from NWA got it in the late 80s and died in 95 also. Kinda weird some go quick and others last and last.

Money.
He’s got the money to buy the latest and greatest drugs rom wherever.
Anyway, it seems to have done a number on this ex-boxer. That gaunt photo of him makes him look like 65 and he was probably still around 40 when the photo was taken. Does anybody know how he contracted HIV? Nothing in his bio suggests he was into homosexuality.
