If the gays want to propagate AIDS amongst themselves let them do it. If they like playing Russian roulette let them.
It's just nature's way of saying sort yourselves out. Just don't look for federal funding for keeping things in line and the "poor" victim alive after they find they are dying from something they could have prevented.
Isn't there some traffic on the BQE you could play in Snoopy?
They are not victims! Get over that bullshit Doc Zip. They are willing participants. It's been over twenty years that these people have been taking chances on killing themselves because they have a passion to do someting that they know is wrong.
I don't care if you screw a light post. Just make sure the electricity is off when you do it.
Anyone know what parade was going on today? People where driving around with red flags with what looked like a shield crest in black on it.
Kosovo gained its independence as a nation today.
'TreeHugger wonders about the carbon footprint of a bloated Gmail account.'
It's stupidity like this that makes me not want to listen to them. *sigh* If only more engineers could run the world. Like OUR MAYOR.
Who the fuck is still getting AIDS today? Engage in risky behavior, enjoy the consequences. Sympathy is waining. Seriously, people know better.
