Huckabee wanted to isolate AIDS patients - Yahoo! News

Does anybody remember Huckabee saying this in 1992?

I do.

And, he still feels he was justified in making such an ignorant comment.

I guess redneck assholes wouldn't see the embarassment inherent in having a president with the name of "Huckabee."

Oh so AIDS IS a strictly "gay" disease? That really does seem to be what you are implying. The story says "AIDS patients" not "gay people", so "bashing gays" is your own correlation. His quote...
"It is difficult to understand the public policy towards AIDS. It is the first time in the history of civilization in which the carriers of a genuine plague have not been isolated from the general population, and in which this deadly disease for which there is no cure is being treated as a civil rights issue instead of the true health crisis it represents."

He didn't say lock up homosexuals, he said lock up the people with AIDS who at that time WERE contagious and nearly 100% gonna die.

I'm glad I'm not gay, because if some of the members of this forum are any indication of what it does to your brain, life must be a horrific place. Irrational, delusional, and paranoid...it's scary.

Wow Tristan despised stereotyping the gay community with AIDS.
And yet, you are right, FX...he just did it!

Tristan, you need to turn in your supergay cape and let someone wage the war that needs to yet be fought on behalf of the gay community.

You are showing your true colors.

Episcopal fold loses 1st diocese - in valley

As if there was enough problems with the gay population, I think some of you know that the Diocese of San Joaquin (California) ceded from the US Episcopal Church.

I was made aware of this on Saturday, and it was posted in the San Diego Union-Tribune yesterday. This article comes from the S.F. Chronicle.

I don't know if a few other dioceses across the USA will follow the San Joaquin Diocese.

In another context you could say that AIDS is a black people's disease. It just depends on who is trying to make a point and play victim.

It's only a "gay" disease when it's in Tristan's own personal interests to say so. Otherwise, less than 5% of gay men have AIDs.

you all are incredible assholes

if you knew ANYTHING about these statements, you would KNOW that he made them in DIRECT RESPONSE to questions about gay rights
