"Obviously it is bigoted to assume that a person from Sudan has AIDS, simply because you think they have a certain statistical rate of AIDS in that country."

So it is bigoted to think that if a country has a high rate of aids, a person from that nation may have it. We have interesting definitions of bigot these days. And it is easy enough to try to brand a person as a bigot if that person voices any concerns about those people.

You didn't speak of a "country" which is simply a political construct, but of "racial groups," a very different thing.

And no, you can't "ASS-U-ME" any such thing. I can see it being a CONCERN, but that's the girl's parents' problem.

I am confident you needn't feel such fear over some "racial group" threatening your precious bodily fluids.
