How utterly and completely horrible.
Being in serious irresponsible denial is different from being "unaware".
"A new British report suggests that one in 10 homosexual[s]...who visit popular gay venues...are infected with the AIDS virus...a third...don't realize it...[and] the researchers found the percentage of gay men who...engag[ed] in the most dangerous form of unsafe sex increased at a fast clip over the four-year study period."
I am shocked. SHOCKED! S-H-O-C-K-E-D!
How is this possible after the most widespread information campaign in the history of medical science? After all, aren't gays just like any other segment of the populace? Aren't they really just like you and me? What gives here?
Obviously, this horrible set-back is the fault of hate-crime and uneducated heterosexuals that force gays into these practices by the lack of acceptance in mainstream society. Obviously, more money is needed to reach children in Kindergarten before it is too late. Obviously, American taxpayers are not doing their fair share.
In an article titled "Bug Chasers: The men who long to be HIV+" [http://www.rollingstone.com/news/newsarticle.asp?nid=17380], writer Gregory Freemen, based on comments by public health officials, asserts that 25 percent of the 40,000 new AIDS infections every year are gay men who have sought out the disease. He also exposed how some gay men have eroticized getting AIDS as the last most extreme sex act in a community where all else has been tried.

This isn't a matter of these men not realizing they're infected--some are intentionally seeking to become HIV+, receive a medical diagnosis as such, and then continue to have unprotected sex. They are knowingly and willing perpetuating the spread of HIV.
Homosexual Agenda Ping - Nasty News in the Morning Alert!
There's so much in this article - post #2 by Caipirabob really sums it all up.
The pro-homosexual bias is very evident in the article - so young, especially minority homosexuals don't have "access" to health care - aren't there free AIDS clinics or places to get tested for AIDS all over the place???
Homosexuals with AIDS don't FEEL a responsibility for telling their (numerous) sex partners that they have AIDS? This is stated in such a calm, cool, neutral tone. IOW, such AIDS carriers are purposely giving others a fatal, horrible disease. Tsk, tsk, tsk.
It's impossible to force sex addicted emotionally and metally disturbed homosexuals many of who abuse alcohol and use drugs to start acting responsibily. Posters at bus stops won't do it. Reparative therapy and a change of heart might.
The media is really trying hard to pretend that the Emperor has clothes.
Let me know if anyone wants on/off this pinglist.
"One major problem facing public health officials is the failure of HIV-infected men to refrain from unsafe sex. Often, the infected men feel they don't have a responsibility to disclose their illness. "We don't seem to be able to get ahead of that issue," Coates said."
And why should they feel they have a responsibility?? The AIDS (ie; Liberals)crowd has made every gay person infected with this disease a "VICTIM" and therefore not accountable for their actions.
Its a horrible disease and I wouldnt wish it on anyone, but it IS preventable and the gay community MUST take responsibility for their actions.
