I am not unsympathetic to certain individuals who were contaminated by means beyond their control, but I get so sick and tired of everything boiling down to AIDS. Today, they were talking about the cloned cat could lead to something to do with AIDS. I saw one of the truth.com ads about cigarettes last night and though "You would never see an ad campaign like that about AIDS." It's sickening how the homosexual community runs around lisping that AIDS is not a homosexual disease, yet they are the one clamoring for the most money because they are the most adversely affected!

I've got to agree with you. Why we are throwing SO much money at a disease that people choose to transmit and could easily stop transmitting is ridiculous. It is comprable to spending Gazillions of dollars on a cure for gun shot wounds then encouraging everyone to feel free to play recklessly with loaded guns (put condoms over the barrels???). It just shows how much POWER the gay lobby has.

The funding should start and end with education on how AIDS is spread.

I remember that in the beginning of the AIDS epedemic, the City of San Francisco wouldn't tell the truth about how it was spread or shut down the bath houses. They wanted it both ways, to have the fun and if they didn't know maybe they wouldn't get the disease. If you don't educate and contact the partners what good is all the money spent?

In Africa they think that if they rape a virgin they will be healed. Running out of virgins and now going after the little girls. They need education but won't do it because it is politically incorrect.

Don't send my money there until this is resolved.
