As you seem to have difficulty absorbing the written word, I will repeat what I wrote a few posts above.

"The thread concerns Fidel Castro and another member accused him of being beastly to homosexuals.
My posts were to explain the efficacy of Fidel's policy of confinement, it saved thousands of lives....almost exclusively homosexual's lives"

My god man, if the NYT admitted that Fidel's policy worked, why can't you?    ideology?
