For those too lazy: Pregnant women are whores, and if you get HIV you probably got it from whoring, and we need to punish whores, so I vote no to offering free testing to see if the fetus is HIV-positive (BTW, this guy's "pro-life"). What, you'd rather he was truthful and said that sodomy was the most likely transmission vector for HIV?
I disagree with him on anyone 'deserving' HIV, but you have to admit, that you only catch HIV through actions which you consent. This is different from most diseases. He's right that promiscuity significantly ups your risk of catching HIV. As for the Obama comment, so far he's treated the Ft Hood murderer with kid gloves. Is he willing to execute a fellow Muslim? We shall see. Doug Hoffman and Sarah Palin, who are taking over your party. Man, what a drive by smear. Does Sarah Palin scare you? |

I especially like the "kid gloves" part. What's he supposed to do, go to Texas and punch the guy while he lies in the hospital? It's an impression and an opinion. You are quite right to take issue with it, but I expect it to become more apparent over the next while.
If he's tried in a military court and hanged within the month, I will rescind the comment and apologise to Obama. |

He probably also blames all of the men/women who have sex with people who knowingly have HIV and don't disclose it. Which amounts to a death penalty to everyone that the person sleeps with. Perhaps you might want to ask me first what I believe before making inflammatory comments.
Two thoughts on this. 1. Life imprisonment without possibility of parole. 2. Publication of HIV positive status, registry with the state and tattooed HIV status in an unobtrusive, but intimate location. Your choice. Pick one of two. |

Rape victims and HIV babies are just two examples of people that do not consent. I thought that much was obvious and didn't require further comment, especially considering that HIV babies were included in the topic. The point being that HIV is not a communicable disease, not in the same way as say influenza. We don't, for example, quarantine HIV people because of this feature.
Now, if you are seriously arguing that the vast majority of HIV transmission is not consensual, than the only response to such is that quarantine would be an effective way to discourage HIV transmission. Somehow I doubt you advance this argument. If people require me to spell out all the modes of HIV transmission, I will be more than happy to discuss the outliers. Your comment was ridiculously stupid and ignorant, and now you are trying to portray people who read your comment as you said it (which is unambiguous) as those making the inflammatory comments. Go **** yourself. You know, Asher. I've been polite. I've explained my position on the outliers that you've managed to bring up without making assumptions or assertions about you. I don't see why it's at all difficult for you to do the same. |

Maybe you should've taken more liberal arts courses, which apparently teach you how to make coherent and clear arguments. You make universal qualifiers then squirm when people find exceptions. The argument is clearly articulated, because you've brought up the outliers one could well expect to see levelled. If the argument were not clearly articulated, we'd not be discussing these outliers.
You're a disingenuous douchebag who never does anything but lie, mislead, and be bigoted. Why is it difficult for me to be polite to someone like that? You see, there's a difference. I don't believe you are bigotted for merely expressing opinions contrary to my own. I believe you are wrong. You're absolutely scum of the earth, Ben. Being polite has **** all to do with it. There's more to life than superficial appearances. At your heart, you are a worthless piece of **** and I'll continue to treat you as such for as long as you are anywhere near me, virtually or otherwise. Perhaps you'd be more effective if you attempted to ascertain a rationale behind contrary arguments other than the crutch of 'bigotry'. |
