From the article:
DeMarsh Tarver contracted the virus from his gay partner and agrees with White''s assessment. "I felt like I had been condemned because of the lifestyle I live," said Tarver.

Just like the late, great, Freddie Mercury, a promiscuous lifestyle will destroy a person in this day and time.

"I was dumbfounded and really the only one I could look at was my husband," said Lorraine Mitchell, an AIDS patient who says her husband knew he had AIDS even before they were married."

Mystery explained. Guilty by admission.

Just think, these people are the same ones preparing your food when you eat out.

It''s simple. Use IV drugs or participate in risky *** (specifically gay ***) and risk getting HIV/AIDS. Don''t to those things and your exposure is so low as to not even be a concern.

The article stated:
"White says that black men who show up having contracted HIV/AIDS from other men often don''t consider themselves gay."

As long as it''s a hole; "That''s what I''m talkin'' ''bout".

What we need to be worried about is the Muslim population growing by leaps and bounds. Let me say that a different way. Lets make that the Jihad Muslim''''s or radical Muslim''''s."

A great deal of the world''s Muslims are already black. Just look across northern Africa. And since it is a victim based religion, it is also the fastest growing religion among African Americans.

True. And their refusal to use contraceptives or practice safe se*x guarantees they will outnumber all other races by day after tomorrow.

Being a **** is the furtherest thing from my mind. However I have had three cousins that were Gay. One was a medical doctor, he died of Aids. One was a 30 year army man, he did not have aids. The other was a painter, and he died of aids. I know that we are not going to change them, however, why can''t they use protection when having s.e.x..........? The same thing applies to women having babies. Why can''t they use some protection?? CRAZY WORLD WE LIVE IN...

We have known what causes AIDS/HIV and how to prevent it for nearly 30 years. It is a question of personal responsibility.
