Jesu, you guys really can't take a joke, can you? *sigh* It was an exaggeration; not meant to be taken seriously. (not that this whole topic was, but you know)...

AIDS? Not so much.
Its when the new strains emerge that pandemics form and in the past have killed millions of people, as Senty said more than AIDs.
MANCRUSH! =P

But dat is true. Different Flu Strains pop up all the time, unlike AIDS.

While we're doing that, let's go ahead and brand everyone with conjunctivitis, and so on. It's just abad idea, think of the revolts and turmoil it would cause.
because herpes and conjunctivitis dont kill people anywhere near as often as aids does.
That wasn't really my point...

Why don't we ever hear about them?

Because we're in America, and unless it's the PM, no one cares.
I forget, where do you live?

America.

But they hear a lot about our elections (or Sentynel and English Co. just research it).

NO the media is full of it. One reason why you wont hear about our elections is because they aren't so rediculously drawn out with vast amount of money thrown at them. An election could in theory be called only a month before it takes place as there is no fixed date for election in the UK and is up to the current PM to choose. Althoughg there must be an election within 5 years of the last one.

Also the candidates are all basically the same and the result is a foregone conclusion, so they're not very interesting..

By the time intervals that he comes on, I think he's either East or Central America (as in like the state of North and South Dakota)
You really have no life, do you? :P

Lols for the Harper comic. Very good likeness.

Few things:
wrote:Also, murder by HIV would be virtually unproveable.
Only if the victim has slept with more than one person who knew they had AIDS and didn't tell them.

And how exactly, is discriminating against people who have HIV/AIDS a good thing?
