Reaction To CA.Supreme Ct Decision

What came first, the chicken or the egg? That question in my opinion is the king of all debates. Well besides, "taste great - less filling" Miller lite commercials. I recently posted about a California Supreme Ct. Decision that basically gave unsuspecting individuals the right to sue individuals who infect them with STDs, most noteably HIV/AIDs.

Kudos to the court for not making everyone burst out in laughter and further ridicule Californians, for what is wrong about this state. The very mention of California and it's overcrowded prisons, filled with hundreds of individual on death row is like having a "kick me" sign on the back of every legal California resident. And deservedly so, the one state with "three strikes laws" is having a tough time of sending someone to the bullpen down below.

Yet California is looking good and retaining its title as the sue state, cause now victims who bed with individuals who either experimented homosexual activity or stuck on identity purgatory of "either I am or either I ain't" gay can now be sued and either way, money will be taken.

The only issue is the time, when will an individual know whether or not they are HIV positive? The court is going to allow six months for an individual to get to know. Since it takes the HIV/AIDs virus that long for a positive result, the individual is responsible for divulging that information. But this is question. How? remember that king of all debates question?

I got one, which came first? In the mid 80's the nation was struck with a disease that apparently effected gay men, none more damaging was the death of Rock Hudson. Later on, individuals who were not gay were affected. Arthur Ashe died from AIDs due to a blood transfusion and so did ABC anchorman Max Robinson. Eventually this disease reached out to drug users who shared the same needles and epidemic was on, claiming thousands of lives in America and millions worldwide. So how did it get here? I'm told that my opinion, probably along with the majority of Americans is that it originated in the gay community. Others like Will Smith believe the disease was sent in by the federal government meant for black people but some how our genes didn't go for the oakie doke and therefore it bounced to gay people, which by the way is a very diverse group of whites, blacks, asians and others. And lets not forget the mystery man who did the do with a monkey in deepest driest Africa. My opinion and others are viewed as homophoebic and narrow mindedness. Hey whatever. History will show that the very mention of disease started in a community that once was in the closet and gained noteriety for this deadly disease only. My opinion the breakout of AIDs started the liberalism and political correctness era we are living in, had it not for this disease, homosexuals will still be in the closet and not inuadating the rest of the country of it's sexual "happiness". I guess that take will also relate to the fact of how I feel about racism today in comparison to racism yesterday. I don't personally know anyone who died of AIDs. Yet I have to be thankful that the surgical procedure I had, was safe and HIV free and I didn't receive HIV for some drug user that donated blood that HIV positive in which he shared a needle with someone who had AIDs, who in turn performed homosexual acts for money. Do you see where I'm going with this, one way or another its going to start with an forbidden, immoral sexual act between two men.
