    Obviously, those sex "education" classes where they tell you if you have sex: you-will-die have taken their toll. I must read like 2 posts a day like yours. It isn't all that easy to get AIDS. In fact, almost twice as many people die every year in America from the flu as they do from AIDS. And if you look at the typical person who is HIV+ in America, it is some promiscuous gay guy or drug addict who got it after years of doing all the wrong things.
