Don’t Say Gay Bill Author Claims AIDS is Impossible to Transmit via Heterosexual Sex

[Fearless]

“Most people realize that AIDS came from the homosexual community — it was one guy screwing a monkey, if I recall correctly, and then having sex with men. It was an airline pilot, if I recall.”

“My understanding is that it is virtually — not completely, but virtually — impossible to contract AIDS through heterosexual sex…very rarely [transmitted].”

1. There are too many morons with titles in the US.

I have had to educate so many people on this. Globally, there are more heterosexual infections than gay infections.

5. Especially hetero women.

Fastest growing group in US for years, iirc.

2. He's running scared.

His world is crashing down around him and others like him who think the way they do. Unfortunately they are going to get worse before they get better (if they get better at all).

3. Here's a 44 year old never-married man.

Not jumping to conclusions of course but he sure is obsessed w/all things gay.
Just saying...

6. OK. My gaydar went off looking at this photo...

Notice the "glamour shot", the perfect alignment of everything in the photo. Me thinks this one may not have had a roll in the hay with Billy but her sure wants to.

Regardless, globally AIDS is a predominantly heterosexual disease. Why? Well, let's see because there are lots more heterosexuals in the world screwing around than gays. In may of those cultures use of protection by men is seen as taboo. In most western cultures where a same-sex lifestyle has emerged as generally acceptable, there is much more awareness of the risk of the transmission of the HIV virus and other STDs.

But this guy is totally off his rocker to say that it cannot be transmitted. Once again the Reich wing has drunk the Kool-Aid and we're just waiting for the ambulances to arrive to haul them off to the morgue.

7. The stupid...

It burns.

I read the article. His comments regarding teen suicide have me wanting to smack him upside the head and force him to see the world for what it is, not what he believes it is in his little candyland fantasy.

8. Yes and Stacey Campfield's "Don't say gay" bill is now dead"

hopefully along with his political career. He will have to resort back to his making a living as a slum lord.
