U.S. syphillis rates rose for a seventh year in 2007, driven by gay and bisexual men, while chlamydia reached record numbers and gonorrhea remained at alarming levels -- especially among blacks, health officials said on Tuesday.
Blacks make up 12 percent of the U.S. population, but account for about 70 percent of gonorrhea cases and almost half of chlamydia and syphillis cases, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said...

“What say you?”
Why does it hurt when I pee?
Put John Kerry on this problem... —> the disease needs a meaningful job...
Probably only half-a-case.
Well that does it. If we would just let them get married this would all go away? NOT!!!!
Actually, Ann Coulter’s new book, “Guilty” addresses this very thing.
Take out the factor of single-parentage, and the difference in the crime rate between blacks and whites is ZERO.
In other words, blacks raised in single-parent homes accounted for ALL of the gap between black-perpetrated crime and white-perpetrated crime. This study was conducted by a left-leaning organization too.
Ann brought this up on The View, and the cacklers there (Hasselbeck excepted) just couldn’t deal. The black lady that replaced Star Jones asked some sort of stupid question about ‘compassion’. It’s worth viewing the footage (3 parts). It looked like Ann was conducting a kindergarten class. She kept her cool beautifully, and dialed it down to ‘ducks and bunnies’ for the panel and the home audience.
I had a thought.
To get these stats the cases have to be reported.
So what if all the other stats in other groups just are not going reported/treated?
IMO does not matter what color or sexual pref a human is.
If you are sleeping around or sleeping with someone who is sleeping around you are going to be very open to contracting an STD.
Then again maybe more of the population is not having sex so those getting STD are just repeat clients to the health care clinins who report these cases.
I wonder if that would be classified as inbred STD bugs.
“Low income = high crime.”
....West Virginia is a very poor state with a low crime rate....it is also 95% white.
Or to cut to the chase:
Poor decisions = high crime
Don't sleep with homosexual men. If your husband is a weirdo like that ex-Gov of New Jersey, then I am sorry for you. Personally, if these homosexual men are out having unprotected sex and infecting each other, I don't want to know about it. Just keep it to themselves.
...the CDC was located in Atlanta in the first place because it was in the heart of the Black Belt....and at that time (1946)it was believed that negroes had a tendency to engage in risky sexual behaviors that led to high rates of VD....this study would suggest that not much has changed in the last 50 years.
Great point. I live in a poor, mostly 'White' area, and we have a very low crime rate as well.
Do not bend over any where near a bank these days, like a lot of black folks and gays have done over the last 10 years.
Especially in Washington DC, Chicago, and a certain constituency in Greater Boston.
“Are there a disproportionate number of blacks in prison because blacks are more likely to cause crimes, or because they are more likely to be aggressively prosecuted for crimes?”
Would you agree that most homicides are investigated rather thoroughly? Not that it really even matters. When you look at the crime statistics, the numbers are so disparate that I don’t think you can reach any other conclusion other than this is a black (and Hispanic) problem:
Homicide rates for blacks are 7 times higher than that of whites. Further, a white is 18 times more likely to be killed by a black than a black is to be killed by a white.

Someone at the CDC is racist!
Paging Jesse! Paging Al!
Disgusting.
One of the wonderful benefits of monogamy: no sexually transmitted diseases.
I don’t care HOW politically incorrect that statement is, it’s the truth.

I remember when sex wasn't even a subject for conversation...much less taxation!
Could someone compare the crime statistics of poor whites to poor blacks? Assuming income is the dominant cause, the rates should be virtually identical.
