Jesse Helms Dead.

[Driven1]

Self inflicted?
You dopey bigot.

i was just wondering?  how does one get AIDS?  i have heard that there is an extreme minority that get AIDS from blood transfusions, but that number is almost ZERO. 

how is HIV contracted?  i mean - is it like cancer.  one day you have it and the next day you don't?

or do you have to actually DO something to get it?

[Driven1]

i'll help you out - HIV is contracted from lifestyle decisions...

like shooting up drugs with used needles

and

having unprotected sex (a huge cause in homosexual males according to the CDC)

and

Jesse Helms putting a gun to your head and telling you to inject the HIV virus into your arm

[Driven1]

Self inflicted?

You dopey bigot.

This is why you got banned from urban planet isnt it?

Ah, yes...the quality lefty internet debate style...when confronted with reality, call the other person a bigot, and this you win the argument.

In Gator's defense, let's try this again...try and form a logical argument why the majority of AIDS is not a lifestyle disease. Please. I'd love to see the logical contortions required for this to make sense.

Or you can just dismiss me as a bigot and not actually provide facts for discussion...

wow, bigot.  I would say that you should at least know what the hell you are talking about.  Its easy enough to get real AIDS information.  But then if you were the type to know what the hell you were talking about, you wouldnt be posting on this subject.

Deep end.  Stephen gone off...

[RiversideGator]

So boys, remember when you say these incredibly stupid things that they are the deathwarrants for people that might never have expected to die from it.

Are you attempting to suggest that if one states that AIDS results from lifestyle choices in most cases that someone in that person's family will then contract it as punishment by some higher power?

[RiversideGator]

Bigot = one who does not agree with Stephen's agenda

[RiversideGator]

The word "bigot" does not apply to disapproval of homosexual conduct, Stephen.  This is simply a verbal sleight of hand which gay activists use to legitimize their behavior.  Nice try though.

love this thread.   It makes things crystal clear.

HIV inflicts AIDS in humans.  Its a virus.

Boycott over Starbucks logo? Lame

Boycott over the fact that one of the places Starbucks donates the most money to is in the running for the most evil organization on the planet (read: Planned Parenthood)? Now you might have some ground to stand on.

Hey look...he can do message board searches! Neat! I hope I can learn that skill someday. 

Now, with the nice little medical lesson, perhaps you could elighten the rest of us as to exactly HOW such a virus is caught and passed along. Statistics would be helpful as well. K THX!

Unless you just want to scream "bigot" without any actual, you know, facts or anything. Just sayin.

40% of cancer deaths are self inflicted.

[downtownparks]

What percentage of HIV/AIDS cases are stemming from risky lifestyle choices (aka self inflicted)?

[Driven1]

What percentage of HIV/AIDS cases are stemming from risky lifestyle choices (aka self inflicted)?

only 8%...the rest just wake up one day and somehow have HIV.

yes, we are murdering people with our words (our words become their "deathwarrants").  just like Jesse Helms did.  i wonder how many i have murdered so far?

[jacksonvilleconfidential]

Speaking of AIDS funding, which Stephen apparently has a personal interest in, why is it appropriate the AIDS gets more federal dollars for research per infected person than does cancer?  Apparently Helms wasnt too successful here.

you arent serious are you?

Do you know how many artists, dancers, writers and bright fantastic people from our generation died before thirty?

You bastard.

Maybe no one interesting ever spoke to you in college, but yes, having lived in the cities, I know a lot of dead people, thanks for asking.

Lighten up, Nancy.  All I am saying is there should be more equity with research dollars.  I do not believe there should be no research dollars going to AIDS.  And, I have been far more affected by cancer than AIDS.  Also, AIDS is nearly always self-inflicted whereas cancer is sometimes self-inflicted and sometimes only tangentially so.

So, who is this Nancy you are responding to? Is that some sort of derogatory name for a homosexual? Like Mary? Nuff said!
