Every December 1, the liberals rant en mass that the west is responsible for AIDS in Africa.
Last year, on Fox Newswatch, Jeff Cohen even repeated the line that AIDS spread in Africa because Ronald Reagan didn't speak up sooner about AIDS.
AIDS is transmitted by BEHAVIORS. It is not the fault of the west for not giving money or cheap drugs or building hospitals or failing to say the word AIDS.
When December 1, Worlds AIDS Day, rolls around, have this story handy. Do an internet search on your own and you'll find even more.
The practice of having sex with children to "cure" AIDS is common in Africa and the press should be held accountable to report the facts and not their Marxist political agendas.
It looks like that malicious myth will continue as long as AIDS does. It just galls me, because I know the truth, being a lifelong San Francisco resident.
In the early eighties, when it became crystal clear that AIDS was traceable beyond shadow of a doubt to the unrestricted bathhouses and sex clubs that thrived in New York and San Francisco's gay communities, Mayor Dianne Feinstein made a move to close them down as a health hazard.
She eventually was able to do it, but it didn't sit well with the radicalized gays, who were just beginning to wield their power in the aftermath of the assassination of Harvey Milk and the scandalous under-conviction of his assassin. They threatened Feinstein -- politically and physically -- and they loudly accused her of bigotry disguised in a phony health crisis veil.
Gay journalist Randy Shilts wrote in his bestseller "And The Band Played On" that once investigators tracked down notoriously promiscuous Canadian flight attendant Gaetan Dugas (aka "Patient Zero") and told him that dozens of slow agonizing deaths due to Kaposi's Sarcoma were traced to his sexual contacts, he refused to agree to moderate his behavior.
It's fact, not bigotry: the perpetrators of AIDS in America are primarily homosexual men, and they don't like to be told to keep it in their pants. That's why all predictions that lowering death rates from AIDS would be followed by spikes in other STDs have turned out to be reliable as sunrise.
That being said, the AIDS situation is much better in America than in Africa. Here in America, gays will always be able to find other gays who are willing to take the risk and satiate the lust of the infected. In South Africa, it appears the women are too smart to allow themselves to be victimized, and thus, sadly, gang rape of infants.
