Thread Name: BS: Death penalty for homosexuality?
Subject: RE: BS: Death penalty for homosexuality?
Keith, you have laboured tirelessly but pointlessly to try to "prove" that HIV is a gay disease and a disease of black people. This was in the context of a discussion where bigots were arguing that society needed to "blame" these groups and curtail their civil rights so that HIV/AIDS would be "solved"

You did this in the context of a discussion in which your efforts at distortion served (and were intended) only to try to bolster the arguments of Ake and GfS - whom I think you will agree are self-professed (even if at times in denial) homophobic and racist bigots.

When all your attempts at obfuscation dressed up as the neutral reporting of what you claimed were "facts" failed, you began to argue a moral position in which you complained that the majority population were being unnecessarily and wastefully "bothered" by HIV/AIDS education programs (flying in the face the rising figures for hetero HIV acquisitions in the UK)

You opined that maybe your effort as a teacher had been wasted educating "normal" (my word, your meaning) people about the dangers of HIV and you expressed resentment that you weren't able to tell stidents not to have sex with black people - as if that would keep them safe.

Views like that are harmful - to the vulnerable people you dislike and to the very people that you claim to protect. If you genuinely believe some of the things that you say, I question whether or not you are fit to teach on those subjects.

Keith, most people here suspect you (from your posting history in general) to hold a number of rather right wing prejudices; that you are a right wing bigot. You need to consider, if you believe us all to be mistaken, just what is it that you say and do that leads people to hold that suspicion of you.

If it walks like one and talks like one...

If the cap fits...
