Dugas being Patient Zero is only a theory.

You love to blame gays for everything, don't you.

Where there's fault there's blame.

And the spread of HIV and AIDS can be directly linked to promiscuous homosexuals and men who are in the closet that are in denial of their homosexual nature.

I'm not saying it is Dugas, but it is very reasonable that the initial spread of HIV/AIDS in North America was within the gay community. Gay people are more likely to travel to exotic locales than our heterosexual brothers and sisters. It is not evil, it is what it is.

The problem I see with your mentality is that you label an entire category of people based on the actions of a few. It's the epitome of narrow-mindedness and prejudice.

In the western society we live in it started in the homosexual community.

In the late 70's and early 80's there was GRID - gay related immunodeficiency syndrome (named as such because that's where it showed up first) - which was later renamed AIDS - acquired immuno deficiency syndrome.

Change the bold to AIDS - I think you made a typo. LOL

I'm not too familiar with the Dugas/Patient Zero theory, but I've heard of it.

My point has been that it could just as easily (just as biologically possible) have been spread to North America and in within North America by straight people and has, in fact, been spread by straight people as well as gay people.

I was trying to help defend you against Yikesamillion and, I suppose now LuckyGem as well. The venom they spread is incredible.

Interesting that you and I both said she's "narrow-minded" at the exact same time. Of course, according to her, all gays are alike, so our comments probably won't be taken seriously.

Try to keep up, the discussion has veered.

The Gay community is not trying to force anything on you. They just want equal rights just like you and I. The same thing was said when women fought for their rights and the black community as well.
They are polluting the world and the minds of children and adults, it effects us all.

Quote:
But most people that are against gay rights only do so becasue its what the society they live in says to do. What we all need to do is step outside the box here and ask...How are gays forcing their views onto us?
Gays are less than 3% of the population, yet are presented (force fed) in a majority of our media, entertainment and daily life, just like on this forum.

Quote:
Its no different than when people make out in public, if you don't like it, look away. As humans we all have different likes and dislikes. How can we say that what one person likes everyone else has to like.
Poor comparsion, people that make out are looking for affirmation, or special rights.

Quote:
Its for that reason we live in America. If you want to live in a society that everyone has to be the same, and can have no personality, move to a third world country. Here in AMERICA, We believe in equal rights...We even have thousands of dead soldiers to prove that. Our country believes in the ability to make a life with the freedom to choose whatever road to happiness we want, so much so that we fight for it everyday.
Newsflash, third world countries have the gay disease as well.

Quote:
By allowing the gay community rights, we will here less about it. Everyone will be happy. Just because we give them equal rights doesn't mean that we are forced to follow their ways. Homosexuality will be here no matter what you do. If we focused the same amount of attention on actually making this world a better place as we do judging one another this country really would be the land of opportunity.
Have you followed the increase in bisexuality, beastiality, multiple partners, if it feels good do it generation?

Watering down right and wrong brings the destruction of family values, promotes weak mindedness, and the mutations of STD's. Sexual disease is reason enough to promote controlled sensualism. Not gov't controlled, but at least educating kids in a direction other than sexual immorallity and try it you might like it BS.
