All scientists are evil, all are corrupt, everyone's in league with homosexuals. Academics are worthless parasites, drug addicts should be left to die in the streets (unless they were soldiers). Holy crap. Get some help, man. I used to think it was outrageous and funny. It's getting kinda sick. Go buy yourself a new toy of some kind and feel better. - Elmer Fri, 05 Mar 2010 08:53:34 +0100 http://anti-strib.com/blog/another-scientific-scare-based-on-lies.html#comment-7901 Drug use in the district is rampant as well as prostitution (homosexual and hetrosexual). DC also has a large black population and they participate in a wide variety of risky activities like unprotected sex, drug use and poor health maintenance. These cultural issues increase their exposure to AIDS. There is also the issue of health. AIDS transfers much more easily heterosexually if there are other health problems. STD's with open sores increase the probability of transmission. Africa is often held up as the example a of hetrosexual AIDS epidemic, but there are other diseases that are assisting in transmission. The reality is that AIDS is a relatively minor threat to healthy middle class Americans. It also has zero threat to monogamous married couples. - Barthélemy Barbancourt Fri, 05 Mar 2010 07:44:17 +0100 http://anti-strib.com/blog/another-scientific-scare-based-on-lies.html#comment-7900 "The disease has infected a growing number of heterosexuals, particularly in the black community" That is because so many black men engage in buggery in prison, then bring it home to their beotches....the primary cause is still homosexual contact. "and in some regions heterosexual contact is the primary transmission mode." Well, we can be sure Odin's not engaging in gay sex right now, 'cause he pulled that right out of his ass. "..but nobody knows for sure because it can take years for the symptons to surface." Right...and the PC police have made it easy for infected persons to deny and expose others. - tswift Fri, 05 Mar 2010 07:28:43 +0100 http://anti-strib.com/blog/another-scientific-scare-based-on-lies.html#comment-7899 [b]In order to develop sympathy for AIDS victims and get millions in grant money for research, doctors lied to the public about the likelihood of heterosexual transmission of the disease. There isn't much debate about this as the heterosexual epidemic predicted never occurred.[/b] Nonsense. The disease has infected a growing number of heterosexuals, particularly in the black community, and in some regions heterosexual contact is the primary transmission mode. Recent estimates are that about 3% of Washington DC residents are HIV-positive. It's also estimated that over 1 million U.S. citizens are afflicted, but nobody knows for sure because it can take years for the symptons to surface. It's way too early to say we've avoided a heterosexual epidemic. - Odin Fri, 05 Mar 2010 07:03:46 +0100 http://anti-strib.com/blog/another-scientific-scare-based-on-lies.html#comment-7898 If we were serious about curing AIDS, we'd deal with it the same way we dealt with Tuberculosis. - tswift Fri, 05 Mar 2010 06:11:51 +0100 http://anti-strib.com/blog/another-scientific-scare-based-on-lies.html#comment-7892 I didn't know we (me and millions of other scientists) were on one. Nobody treats me with deference because of the way I look at the world. (Progressives do treat me like a car salesman because I'm conservative, but not because I experiment to learn about the world). Why would you suggest I be treated with contempt because some radical assholes lied and manipulated data? As usual, your attempt to stimulate angry discourse probably misrepresents your real feelings...you never meet good and honest scientists in your line of work? - Elmer Fri, 05 Mar 2010 04:29:01 +0100
