Of course their orientation cannot cause AIDS, but it does lead them to behaviours that do. If someone chooses to have promiscuous sex with multiple random partners, I really don't see it as societies role to protect them from themselves. I view the situtation much the same as the war on drugs: If some idiot wants to load up on herion and turn blue and die, no amount of societal intervention is going to stop them, so we should cut our losses and quit wasting time and money on people who are foolishly risking their lives.

Neither do I. I'm just rather pedantic and I like to point out that homosexuality isn't what spreads AIDS, it's stupidity...it just so happens that a disproportionate number of homosexual men are apparently stupid.
