"Furthermore, the precedent set by the gay community

Gonorrhea, etc and hampered the ability of health care

result. "
Thank you, Mike! I recall figuring this out on my own
in the very early days of AIDS, and wondering if
anyone was ever going to be brave enough in the face
of the hysterically politically correct gay advocacy
lobbies to speak the truth. Finally, in the early
'90's, I heard this local (Los Angeles) research
doctor who headed the largest local operation directed
at AIDS on one of the talk radio shows and I called in
and posed the question, prefacing it by mentioning
that I had read McNeil's "Plagues and Peoples."
There was a very noticeable pause before the doctor
answered, and you could hear in his voice that he knew
he was going to catch hell for saying it, but he did,
and he stated that in fact specifically the rise in
drug resistant TB was known for certain to be a direct
result of the AIDS epidemic. When people can't ever
quite shake an infection, because their immune systems
are shot, and have to keep dosing it with antibiotics,
over and over, then we all know exactly what the
inevitable result is going to be - SUPER GERMS!
Of course, the gay community didn't invent
irresponsible behavior. The "hippies" (speaking very
loosely of all those who threw off conventions and
engaged in a lot of drugs and promiscuous sex in the
'60's and '70's) had already taken us well down that
path. Today, the traditional Hispanic community is
stupidly following suit. There is an epidemic among
married Hispanic women of AIDS and all manner of STDs,
due to their husbands proving how Macho they are by
having unprotected sex with prostitutes, including the
male transvestite prostitutes who are popular in the
low-life Hispanic bars. They actually consider it to
be MORE manly to have sex with a man - so long as they
take the "male" role, anyway.
