Proving that sleet cannot stop the Health Department volunteers, WCBS 880 has video of the NYC Condom being distributed at a Columbus Circle subway exit. Check out the "NYC Condom" jacket the volunteer is wearing! It's hilarious to see people eagerly stick their hands out because who doesn't want something that's free? We even think someone asked for two.
Here's what the NYC Condom's packaging looks like. And proving you're never too old to learn about safe sex, there's an article in the Times about teaching sex education to seniors; at the start of an information session, none of them knew how to put on a condom but by the end, they were all eager to get their goodie bags full of condoms.

If the city has cash to waste on things planned parenthood hands out for free and can be bought for just a few bucks at every corner of the city-then the cops are underpaid and I hope Albany and Washington never send the city another dime!
they should just give out condoms to the gay sodomites. "Put this plastic on your dick so when you put your dick in that hole full of diseased shit you won't get AIDS and spread it to the rest of us!!!!!
