What the Fuck? World AIDS day excludes the LGTBQ community

<snip>

Vice President Mike Pence's speech on Thursday honoring the 30th anniversary of World AIDS Day quickly drew criticism — not for what he said, but for what he didn't say.

In remarks at the White House, Pence did not mention the gay community, just as President Donald Trump did not mention it in his World AIDS Day proclamation last year.

FUCK these evil pieces of shit. My half-brother and many friends died because Ray-gun and that dead Bush who's now being reinvented as some sort of a god didn't do anything to acknowledge or advise or prevent.

Now we have Hop-Toad wanting to put the money into conversion therapy? Fuck you.
